Will we finally see Jack and Rambo start together? – The Welshman is key to revive Lacazette!
It seems not so long ago we have played Palace away in that crazy 3-2 win … And indeed it wasn’t that long ago, just a day over three weeks back. You do get those reverse fixtures around New Year. Chelsea, for instance, are facing Brighton for the second time in a matter of weeks. […]
Not ideal how Arsenal arrived at this window but reuniting the Mkhitaryan and Aubameyang Dortmund Magic…
I saw a thread on Twitter this morning from my good friend, Mario, @mr_arsenal and asked if he wanted to turn his thread of tweets into a blog. He agreed and here it is…… So…today, we have Wenger saying: “We have to very quickly get over this transfer period. For us this period has been […]
SPRING CLEANING COMES EARLY TO LONDON COLNEY – Who can be swept out?
It is only January and Winter, but it has been clear for some time now that Arsenal from top to bottom as a football club needs cleansing. Some members of the playing body as well as the coaching staff and maybe the board, need to be culled. The club has been trending in a wrong […]
We have been used dining on Caviar at Wenger’s table, eating Frogspawn is just not the same.
I was very saddened on Monday this week driving along listening to the presenters on Talksport debating which team this season played the most exciting and attractive football. The conversation, unsurprisingly had arisen after Sunday’s thriller, and no I do not mean drab affair at the Vitality. Obviously and indisputably Liverpool and Man City play […]
Rejuvenation through Reinvention: Are the cases of Arteta and Cazorla the template for Mkhitaryan
It seems as if Alexis Sanchez’s impending transfer to Manchester United is not a matter of “if” but “when.” The name being bandied about as makeweight in the deal is one Henrikh Mkhitaryan. It’s far from a given that the Armenian will join, but reliable sources seem to think a deal is close. Arsenal’s recent […]
Selling Theo Walcott – Right for player but being right for Arsenal depends on replacement
Despite being a strong opponent of the January/Winter transfer window, Arsene Wenger during that period in the year 2006 pulled off a piece of business which was hailed and slammed in equal measure by anyone concerned, not different from anything Arsenal in the last few years. He had signed from the Southampton football club academy, […]
Arsenal is being left behind by the other top clubs, and it might be too late to catch up
Arsenal, how the mighty have fallen. And how we’re allowing the sore to grow. The latest defeat to Bournemouth highlights how far we’ve fallen. But why do we allow the sore to fester? We’re sick. But then we’re not resolving the sickness. I feel like we’re viewing a bad cut, and not making any effort […]
Alas! Poor Wenger: What to do about Arsenal’s Ailing Manager. (Shakespeare Said It Best)
I have been writing for Gunners Town now for two years and sending comments in for a year before that. I have varied between ecstatic praise to gut wrenching despair and utter frustration. We are now in a position of desperation which I did predict about 18 months ago. The comments from fellow contributors have […]
Wenger’s Legacy Under Threat, Arsenal’s Future At Stake: Don’t Let The Rot Set In…
The ordinary era: identity under threat. This season has been different to others. Normally we start brightly, collapse mid-winter before recovering enough for a top 4 battle and FA cup grab at the end. While I love the FA cup and I’m thankful for being able to see my team regularly lift it at […]
Theo Walcott, I Almost Loved You – A Fond Farewell to Arsenal’s Longest-Serving Player
I distinctly remember the feature in The Sun. Across the page was a headline about Arsenal’s future, with three pictures of players underneath. “The new Vieira, the new Kanu and the new Henry,” the piece proudly said, along with each of the price tags the club was set to pay per player. Emmanuel Adebayor of […]
