Another 9/10 from Koscielny and one end and Laca at the other sees Arsenal brush aside a limp Napoli
Napoli 0-1 Arsenal – Europa League QF Second Leg (0-3 agg.) It took a beauty from Lacazette to secure an excellent win in the San Paolo stadium. Napoli was anticipated to be strong, forward, and pressing, as they needed to be. But they weren’t. If anything, I was surprised at how limp […]
Emery and his staff have made Arsenal better simply by improving our players individually – The Unspoken illumination!
The Unspoken Illumination’ – Positives, needs and hopes! Personal improvement has never been and will never be headline making. (unless you are Pep perhaps!! I was watching the game last night and suddenly I was struck by the absent headline of the ‘New Arsenal.’ It was just after AMN confidently breezed past Insigne on […]
Can Arsenal’s Greek colossus be the pillar of defense that thwarts Napoli’s attack? (Europa QF Preview – 2nd Leg)
Napoli vs. Arsenal Europa League preview QF 2nd Leg (0-2 Aggregate) We’re heading to southern Italy, and the city of Naples – or Napoli in Italian. Napoli has been the biggest challenger to Juventus of late, beating either bigger clubs like Inter and AC Milan in this regard. They’re no slouches really – since they […]
Can Arsenal clinch every point left and aim for a Top 3 finish?
CAN ARSENAL CLINCH EVERY POINT LEFT AND AIM FOR A TOP 3 FINISH? By Ashley Munson The football season is rapidly drawing to a close and the race for the top four – and subsequently qualification to the Champions League – is well and truly on. Arsenal have climbed back into fourth place to sit […]
Ramsey, Torreira and Lacazette should be the first 3 names on Emery’s Team Sheet in Naples
I agree with Dave`s analysis of the Watford match. In contrast, against Everton, I regretfully strongly disagreed with Marble Halls preview and particularly his selection for the game as he suggested Guendouzi and Elneny should play. I suppose that is why Football is such a fertile ground for diverse opinions. Surely the performance and the […]
Emery’s Arsenal Limousine has the appearance and spec but a different driver ‘at the wheel’ on away trips
Another away match and another performance that failed to inspire confidence but a valuable three points in the bag. As a fan you would like to simply sit back and enjoy the ride with a new chauffeur but at times Emery’s Arsenal conspire to make that difficult. Indeed, it sometimes seems that Emery’s executive limousine […]
Watford 0-1 Arsenal: 3 points without pressing, impressing or showing any cojones – we’ll take that! [Positive Needs & Hopes]
‘4 points, 2 points or none’ POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES I have no interest in working at FIFA. Well, I might take a medium sized bung then take a sabbatical to Montego Bay for 30 years! I also don’t think that they should change the 3 points for a win system. It’s fine. When I […]
The North London Stadium Derby – how Spurs may struggle in Arsenal’s footsteps
Arsenal and Tottenham – Stadium comparisons/issues Arsenal and Spurs, with the opening of Tottenham’s new ground, will have some inevitable comparisons in their grounds’ financing and operations. Both us and them have built grounds for the same reasons – to provide a footing to compete at the highest levels. And revenue is all in […]
Woeful Away, Arsenal must dig deep to secure vital win against physical, high-flying Watford [Preview]
Watford vs. Arsenal Premier League preview We face Watford, and a certain Mr. Deeney, who notably said we lacked the balls (essentially) when he beat us 2-1 in 2017. This comment was perhaps a bit base, since it was on national TV (BT Sport), but it was warranted. We did lack the “cojones” […]
Arsenal 2-0 Napoli: Emery’s Firestarters Ramsey and Torreira Must Play [Positive Needs & Hopes]
Have we found the Firestarters? POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES What’s the fastest way to create belief in sport? Occasionally, you support a team who are so mentally strong that they make you mentally strong too. Most of the time though we arrive at the ground/turn on the TV and hope. I think the fastest way […]
