For Arsenal to succeed in 2016/17 it is the On-field Partnerships that hold the Key
Partnerships That Hold the Key Since my return to the blogging world I have been talking about firstly how the number 10 impacts our culture and maybe indirectly manifest in a lack of application at Arsenal. I then asked myself why I was thinking this way. Was it shape, was it how open we looked […]

In the week that our skipper commits his future to Arsenal one of columnist pays tribute to the man from Loreint…… LAURENT KOSCIELNY – FROM BOY TO MAN TO WORLD BEATER. From time immemorial, man has always sought acclaim and praise for performing actions or tasks with class, panache and divergent human abilities. Since the […]
Cech, please! Is it Time to Say Goodbye to the Man with the Golden Glove?
When Petr Čech joined, I was very happy. Surely it didn’t come as a surprise, as speculations went on for a couple of transfers windows, but I remember how satisfied I was, how happy I felt to finally have a top-class goalkeeper at the Club. Given his age, the Czech wasn’t a long-term choice but […]
Whilst fans debate Alexis and Giroud it is Iwobi who steals the show in Wales
It feels like quite a bit since we’ve won a game of football comprehensively. So it was really nice to not fret about the result for most of the second half and just lazily follow the action. I was worried going into the game. On top of Swansea being a tricky opponent for the Gunners […]
The original King of Highbury – From North Bank to North Bank’s Darling
My first Highbury Hero for 2017 takes us back down memory lane to revisit another of the 1971 Double squad. This was the man who clinched the Double, who went from watching The Arsenal as a fanatical fan from the North Bank, to wearing the famous red and white shirt and playing for his beloved […]

Arsenal keeps its French Connection alive as 3 key players pen deals
Rejoice, Gooners, our key players have renewed their contracts! No, I’m not talking about either Mesut Özil or Alexis Sánchez as their new contracts are still up in the air and there’s no sign either they will pen new deals anytime soon. There’s a huge debate ongoing about what the Club should do to keep […]
Bring Me Sunshine & Blame Alexis….The Arsenal Drama Continues……..
Well, it has certainly been a while since I last wrote. Such a while that I’m not sure it should be called a diary anymore, because if there were a blogging version of the Trade Description Act I would be hauled before the Office of Fair Blogging for being in breach of the Blog Description […]
Wenger’s Current Arsenal has lost it’s pace – We feel the need for the return of Speed
Athleticism -And The Need for Speed I always say when you watch football we all watch from our own personal structures or values. What do you mean Clive?….. I hear you cry… In my opinion we are all formed in a football way by our own individual exposure to the game, our memories of our […]
It is not whether Ollie G is Plan A or B but about selecting an attack for Opposition A or B
With the incorporation of Alexis, Lucas, Giroud, Ozil, Iwobi, Xhaka and Ramsey all in the same attack at various points of a game I think we can agree that this is our best attack for quite a few years. The effectiveness is there, because coming back from deficits requires mental will no doubt but also […]
