Vorskla cannot contain Arsenal’s Youngsters in the Ukraine – Match Report and Player Ratings!
FC Vorksla 0-3 Arsenal Europa League Review The kids, and some oldies too, did well in stricken Ukraine. Despite the moving of the venue, due to serious political tensions between Russia and Ukraine, the kids amongst the oldies, did well to get a spectacular win here. Smith-Rowe shone brightly and grabbed an early […]
Arsenal’s Activity in the Window likely to be for Fullbacks not Wingers – Here’s Why (Look ahead to Window Part 2)
To follow on from Part 1 I promised to look at where the limited budget might be spent, if I believe it will not go on the winger most fans feel we want. For me it is increasingly apparent, that for the moment at least, Emery sees the width in this team being provided by […]
Mkhitaryan, Ozil, Holding, Alex Scott – latest news
Arsenal points of interest – 27th Nov. 2018 Should the club sell Mkhitaryan? Whilst many of us are naturally content with the 2-1 win vs. Bournemouth, Mkhitaryan’s performance brought much thinking and musing amongst fans. I’m a fan of the podcast by Gooner Eagle Eye on Youtube and Twitter, in which he features […]
Arsenal gobbles lucky cherries to go 17 undefeated [AFC Bournemouth 1-2 Arsenal]
We got a good win at Bournemouth, and my match review prediction was right. But I’m not here to just big myself up. Bournemouth started the game well and had an offside goal ruled out, but the TV cameras showed that it was not offside after all. We possibly got lucky there, but Bournemouth also […]
Kolasinac may not be the best defender at Arsenal but he is the Best Crosser – Arsenal Calm the Rumbling Storm #AFCB1AFC2
Arsenal calm the rumbling storm…. Positives, Needs and Hopes I was trying to figure out (yet again) why games against Bournemouth seem so frantic. Is it the small, compact, noisy stadium? The tight camera angle? Almost seems like a game from the 90’s, end-to-end, vertical and nerve-wracking. Very little control especially in the first […]
Decisions for Emery at Vitality – Mkhi or Iwobi, Sokratis or Mustafi BUT it must be Auba and Laca!!
AFC BOURNEMOUTH VS. ARSENAL PREVIEW We’re heading to the South Coast, and take on Bournemouth. who under Eddie Howe have performed very well this season. They currently are in sixth place – one behind us incidentally – and have continued much of what Howe has been noted for. Quick passing, good technical skills, and […]
Emery’s New English Lions, Nketiah’s Chance and the Fornals/Pepe links putting pressure on his creative players ahead of the January Window – Part 1
International breaks can be rather dull and more so these days with little Arsenal interest, certainly from an England perspective. In a tenuous link however we happy Gooners, are more than quietly confident that our interest in The Three Lions may well change in the not too distant future. In recent years, we have pondered […]
Crime Watch – Arsenal Edition
Now to the horrific attack on a taxi driver in the centre of Copenhagen in early September. The middle aged driver had picked up his last ride of the night, who he described as blonde, 6 ft tall, sort of athletic looking and that he referred to himself as ‘Lord’. When he had stopped and […]
Double NLD Incoming! How does Arsenal Compare to Sp*rs Right Now?
Combined Arsenal-Tottenham XI The games upcoming between us and them will be key, no matter what. It’s Tottenham. The scum – the enemy. The club near to us that haven’t won a title in nearly sixty years. I believe we can finish above them for top four – but facing them twice in succession has […]
Exclusive interview: Is Pepe the answer to the Welbeck problem?
Exclusive interview: Pepe the Answer to the Welbeck problem? As Danny Welbeck sadly was stretchered off the pitch from the game vs Sporting in Portugal, many a heart broke for the England international who seems to be constantly on the comeback trail from an injury. Welbeck is expected to be out potentially for the rest […]
