Marks out of 10 in all departments for Gazidis’s ‘Catalyst for Change’ for far – A Mess of So far so good?
Around this time last year, it’s said that prior to a home game in 16/17, our CEO Ivan Gazidis, mentioned we needed a catalyst for change. He was, after a poor transfer window and early 17/18 start, ridiculed for this assertion. However, is he now having the last laugh? Maybe. Wenger has gone. New players […]
Arteta Arsenal Manager: A Bold Choice or a Foolish Gamble?
We now appear to be on the cusp of the Mikel Arteta era. Though the appointment of the Spaniard has not been confirmed, rumour is gathering pace aplenty. Of course, it may all be a smokescreen for a ‘bigger’ name, however unlikely that is increasingly looking. Odds with major bookies have gone from 20/1 last […]
Where were you when Wenger left?
Where were you when Wenger left? For all Gooners, I guess it was a seismic moment when we heard that we left. It’s like when US President JFK died. For many years afterwards, people often used to recall where they were when they heard he was assassinated. My JFK moment involved aid from a […]
If Allegri falls through, is it Arteta because Arsenal are really looking for a Coach and not a Manager in new regime?
If we are to believe all the rumours about the race to replace our departing Manager, the club have narrowed it down to Allegri and Arteta. It would be fair to say that if you were led to believe that Allegri was the frontrunner and ready for a new managerial challenge, which he may well […]
Huddersfield Town 0-1 Arsenal – Au revoir et a bientôt Monsieur Wenger)…
Huddersfield Town 0-1 Arsenal – Premier League review. A bientôt, Monsieur Wenger. So we got a win away from home, at last. And a good way to end Mr Wenger’s illustrious tenure at our football club. It was an ironic end, which Arsene himself alluded to as ourselves and Huddersfield share Herbert Chapman as […]
A Fitting Farewell for Wenger in the Herbert Chapman Derby – Can he finally add a win in 2018 to some of his most famous victories on the road.
So it’s Wenger’s final game…..ever. It’s a sad occasion. I’ve wanted him out for a while, but then he is a giant in our club. He got a great send-off for his final league game at home. So we need to give him a win, and to stop our bad away form, at least. This […]
The Top 5 Arsenal Managerial Candidates and The Key value they could add
Our world has been turned upside down of late. We have been witness to our club toeing the line between the emotional release surrounding Arsene’s resignation and renewed optimism about to be instilled by a new manager. As the feel good sentiment and powerful feelings surrounding Arsene begin to subside, we wait for the last […]
Has Wilshere done enough for his new 3 Year deal at Arsenal and gate crash into Southgate’s England Summer Party?
After a long season and much speculation about whether Jack Wilshere initially had a role to play this campaign and then into the future, it seems that speculation is about to end. The word is that Jack has or is about to, according to ‘my sources’ put the pen (Wenger thought he had lost) to […]
Mavropanos, False Dawn or New Hope? – Will the Young Grecian ‘Urn’ his place as an Arsenal Regular in 18/19
With two matches left of a disappointing, yet historic season, Arsenal make the first of two away trips to end the campaign. The Emirates party to send our existing Manager off was well-intentioned and well-executed but now most Gunners’ minds are already on the future. A new manager, new players, departing players and the beautiful […]
So Allegri is favourite but have Arsenal really ruled out the Impressive CV of Brendan Rogers – Endorsed by Stevie G?
Well, “the King is dead, long live the King”. The phrase that is well known when the Monarch dies and a new one takes his place. Unlike the replacement of a monarch, in our case, there will be no death to trigger the replacement or no election to replace him. Instead Kroenke, the King maker […]
