Please Mr. Kroenke, Mr. Wenger, and Mr. Gazidis…..NO new “top-six global TV deal”!
Premier League overseas rights….. Please Mr. Kroenke, Mr. Wenger, and Mr. Gazidis…..NO new “top-six global TV deal”! It may seem odd, as a Gooner and follower of a “top six” team but I do not want us, along with the other five in this bracket, to sign a separate overseas deal. It has been […]
The Gunners prove they are not shy as the officials hang them out to dry: Manchester City 3-1 Arsenal
So the near-impossible didn’t happen despite my somewhat elevated expectations and we went down to City at the Etihad. However, while I do not feel particularly upbeat about the loss itself (no one ever does, do they?), yesterday we didn’t see a capitulation akin to that at Anfield. There’s a lot of talking points to […]
Come on Lads – Support The Arsenal or Jog on with the Plastics and the Glory Hunters
Support The Arsenal or The Arsenal I’m not one to slag off fellow Gooners on how they support The Arsenal. It’s your choice, your opinions, your way. But recently it’s been getting beyond ridiculous. Some of the feeds I follow on Facebook and Twitter are beginning to test my faith in my fellow Arsenal […]
A Valiant Defeat and not a rout but a defeat all the same – Thermapylae not Isandhlwana
Man City 3-1 Arsenal Premier League Review Well OK. We lost. But it wasn’t the smashing that we thought it would be. City were not at their best to be frank. But to use a solid cliché, we made a good account of ourselves. Arsenal lost. But it was a valiant defeat, and not the […]
Arsenal are City’s Achilles Heel so let’s win this for Santi’s New Achilles
We face Manchester City today and it’s fair to say Pep’s side is likely to provide us with the sternest test yet. Our campaign has been hit-and-miss up to date, although I do have to give the team credit for recovering after (another) horrendous start. Since collapsing at Anfield we have lost only once in […]
Can Arsenal halt City’s quest for Invincibility? Match Preview
Man City vs. Arsenal Preview Etihad Stadium, Sunday 5th November 2017 It’s Pep at the Etihad, and the pretender to our Invincibles throne. Can we kill their claim to this throne? Can we really? Who knows? City have been superlative this season. Yes, they were at the start of last season. But then this is […]
Theo, What have you done for me lately? (Remix)
Theo, What have you done for me lately? Not a big Janet Jackson fan, but not a big Theo fan either Once upon a time you were the next big thing When you signed, we bigged you up all time Sven believed and took with the team to Germany But that was just a […]
Does Arséne have Pep in his Step?
They hang over us like a cloak of impending doom: big games against our top-of-the-table rivals which have given Gooners little joy in recent years. Many cite the reasons for our shortcomings as style of play only being conducive to beating bottom half teams, lack of tactical flexibility, or even lack of overall quality/team depth. […]
What will it take Arsenal to win the league again?
Arsenal have continued to search for their first premier league title since the Invincibles. The search which is now in its 14th season has not been expected by the fans to take this long to win the league again. The current situation in the league whereby the amount of money spent in the transfer market […]
B Movie Performance from Arsenal’s B Team with no one pushing for the A Team
Arsenal 0-0 Red Star Belgrade Europa League Group Stage That was dull. Was it a lack of urgency? Or that we didn’t think we needed to win this? It seems odd to ask, but then we are through to the next round. And Red Star didn’t offer much either. The first half had few chances […]
