Leicester 3-0 Arsenal: Were Summer transfer decisions told in Spring?! [Positive Needs & Hopes]
WERE SUMMER DECISIONS TOLD IN SPRING? Positives, Needs and Hopes Were Summer transfer decisions told to the players in Spring? This is an educated guess, not knowledge…… What happened after the Napoli tie? Such an impressive result against a very good opponent and then a total 3 game collapse. I don’t think it’s too far […]
Leicester City 3-0 Arsenal – Woeful Gunners Wengered by Foxes in hunt for Top 4 [with Player Ratings]
Out-Foxed at the King Power This was a new low. And I feel it was coming from the off. The team selection was fair, in terms of the player quality. It was seemingly a 442 we were playing, but then from the off, Leicester manager Brendan Rodgers got his players up for it, […]

Wolves 3-1 Arsenal: Who stole the jumpers?! Boring and bad – Gunners roll over for Wolves [Positive Needs & Hopes]
‘WHO STOLE THE JUMPERS?’ Positives, Needs and Hopes One of Unai Emery’s very first soundbites was, “We want to be protagonists!” I’m glad he wants to be as all fans love attacking football but we are protagonists only every once in a while.

Is Mustafi the best of the worst in Arsenal’s Rich Pantheon of poor Defenders?
‘The best of the worst of the rest? I have been a bit quiet on the site over the last month or so. Manic work schedule and a well-earned holiday have restricted my output. So on Sunday night, I finally found a bar in Khao Lak showing the game and, to be fair, I should […]
Please Mr Emery put Mustafi away for the season and let the sun shine on Arsenal again
What a weekend for sitting out in the sun and enjoying an early summer. Blue skies all around and I should be happy. Unfortunately, a cloud hanging over AFC is spoiling my mini holiday. I have read Mike McDonald`s excellent article and he very succinctly describes his dissatisfaction with Mustafa. I don`t think I could describe […]

Arsenal 2-3 Crystal Palace: The £100 Million Upgrade On Show at Emirates [Positive Needs & Hopes]
‘THE £100 MILLION UPGRADE’ Positives, Needs and Hopes I’ve decided to not cause myself any further pain. It would be super easy to go in two footed on that selection and performance but no doubt you’ve read that over and over already as it’s 35 minutes after the final whistle and that’s all I’ve read. […]
El Clasico Midfielders heading for the exit to Arsenal?
El Clasico Midfielders heading for the exit to Arsenal? As we look into the shadows of another fascinating week of European football, we see that this season’s climax is fast approaching. Many big hitters have left the champions league, Man City, Juventus and of course Real Madrid, both to a youthful Ajax side. Barcelona continue […]
A Tricky Selection for Emery for the visit of Hodgson’s Eagles
Arsenal vs. Crystal Palace – PL preview After the triumph in Naples, we face fellow Londoners Crystal Palace at home on Easter Sunday. With their keeper, seemingly, not having knowledge of arguably the definitive events of the 20th century (for our country and globally….) Palace seems safe enough though they would want to […]
