Ramsey back to his best to steal the show in San Siro – Plus Player Ratings
AC Milan 0-2 Arsenal – Europa League R/16 – San Siro/Giuseppe Meazza Stadium, Milan Wow. We WON A GAME….. Facetiousness aside, it’s good to win. And despite the doom and gloom in our midst, we played pretty well overall. There is one negative for me. In that it shows how well we can play, when […]
The Importance of a New Footballing Identity for Arsenal and the Possible Coaches to Provide It
Recent weeks have been an absolute roller coaster ride for Arsenal fans. The highs of prominent new signings, re-signing Mesut Ozil while breaking our wage structure, and setting yet another transfer record have given way to the extreme lows of four straight losses for the first time since 2002 and a league position 33 points […]
Remember to Support The Arsenal through ‘thick and thin’ as Class is Permanent
Glory hunters? Yes, most of us are down at the state of our club at the moment. Still, I’ve seen and read a lot of interesting comments lately. Maybe it’s just me, but then they are things I take issue with. Namely, that fans “won’t support the club again” if we don’t improve. Or “they […]
For Arsenal’s sake, Sven and Thomas need to kiss and make up
No this isn’t a chapter heading of a Sven Goren Eriksson autobiography, where somehow he falls out of love for a randomly named blue train. This is about current Arsenal chief scout Sven Minislat and former Borussia Dortmund head coach Thomas Tuchel’s rather public falling out that dates back to January 2016. The falling out, […]
Arsenal Fan TV blasts criticism: “We’re the same as podcasts, we just show our faces”
Arsenal Fan TV personality Troopz has defended fan channels, questioning why they are considered so different to podcasts. Over the last few months, Arsenal Fan TV has received criticism for fans benefiting from their team doing poorly and, in a sense, feeding off negative performance for more views.

All is not doom and gloom at Arsenal: a smidgeon of good news…
As we all know, things aren’t well with us at the moment, particularly when it comes to the league. However, thinking positively, we still have the Europa cup to play for, and the possibility of a Champions League spot using the Chelsea/United backdoor. With the first knock-out round kicking off at AC Milan’s San Siro […]
As Anger turns to Apathy is the ‘Long Wait’ for Arsenal without Wenger nearly over?
WE WAIT The one thing you cannot accuse any Arsenal fan of is impatience. I told a friend that I am an Arsenal fan and the first thing she said was that “I guess you are used to heartbreaks then”. I think that is the narrative among non-Arsenal football fans. But the reality is that […]
Nietszche On Wenger: (Nietszche Knows Best!)
Nietzsche Knows Best Arsene arrived at Arsenal on 1st October 1996, under a blaze of overwhelming mockery. The press didn’t know him, the fans didn’t know him and the players didn’t know him. Tony Adams summed up the general consensus: “At first, I thought, What does this Frenchman know about football? He wears glasses and […]
Brighton 2-1 Arsenal: Gunners Slide on the Seaside
Brighton and Hove Albion 2-1 Arsenal Premier League Matchday 29 Amex Stadium It’s more negativity here. Since we lost away. Again. We actually started off well, at least within the first 10 minutes or so. We had some chances via Ozil and Wilshere, but then we conceded a soft goal from a set piece. The […]
Can the Gunners get out of their slump, or are we in for another disappointment? – Brighton preview
We visit Brighton today as the search for some semblance of form goes on. I have to admit it’s been quite a while since I’ve felt this down before writing a preview. Possibly it compares to the events of 2016, when, after beating Leicester, we went on to lose to United and and Swansea. Right […]
