Story of a Season Turning in 2016 – ONLY WELBECK has converted Ozil’s chances this year!!
On the back of a possible Era changing 4-0 FA Cup final win over Aston Villa at the end of last season, Arsenal’s 2015/2016 campaign did look destined to be the year where ‘everything comes together’ at the Emirates. That belief was only strengthened by the fact that Arsenal had as stainless a pre-season campaign […]
Jon Toral – The Real Low down with Birmingham Blog Often Partisan
It has not gone unnoticed I am sure by most Gunners that Jon Toral concluded successful loan spell at Birmingham City, by doing a Payet and making a clean sweep at the Blues end of season awards. He picked up Players Player, fans Player and Goal of the season with this effort: Rather than just […]
21 Years and Counting… It’s all down to this on ‘Not Just any Given Sunday!’
21 years and counting…. As you know Sunday is a must win for us and a must lose for the Sp*ds, so I thought I would have a go at writing Wenger’s speech for Sunday. The problem is every time I started I always came back to this.. So here we go: “I don’t know […]
To be or not to be a Gooner. That is the question.
We are all aware of the ever widening chasm between the “Arsene stay” and the “Arsene out” brigade. It has now descended into violent confrontation and I have seen a comment on Twitter where a supporter`s daughter was punched in the face by a “Wenger stay” supporter. The aftermath of the Man City game was […]
Only ONE Arséne Wenger? Not true. Meet FIVE more in this Gunners Town Exclusive
https://twitter.com/hamburgooner/status/729403151686766592 Gooners have all, at some stage, sung the immortal chant “There’s Only One Arséne Wenger” – but is it actually true? Is there only ONE Arséne Wenger? Is he unique? And, if so, is that a good thing? And if it’s false – if there is more than one Arséne Wenger – what would that mean, exactly?! […]
May The Fourth Be With You – Woe is me the Unhappy Poetic Gooner
I thought about doing something different for this month’s round up as Arsenal were finally, finally put out of their misery thanks to Leicester doing the unthinkable and winning the Premier League. This season promised much, but delivered little. With one game left, I thought it would be nice to muse over the season that […]
Our Performance v City – ‘It was a great big turd, polished and steaming’
I think I won’t make much of a mistake if I say our Sunday game has produced only two positives: we have almost guaranteed 3rd (provided we avoid defeat in the last match) and Giroud had a good game, one which was long overdue for the Frenchman. Actually, thanks to Southampton, we even retain a […]
Buy Griezmann to keep Ozil – Your mission should you choose to accept it Arsene
Two things need to happen this summer; we need to keep Mesut Ozil and get Antoine Griezmann. We all know and cringe when we remember what happened in the summer of 2014-with the whole Luis Suarez debacle, that cannot happen again. Last season we were told there was no top striker available, this summer there […]
Jack Wilshere may be a surprise starter at the Etihad – MCFC v AFC
Hello everyone. It’s Manchester City we face this weekend and, while our recent displays hardly fill me with confidence of any kind, there are nonetheless two circumstances which make me feel slightly better going into this game: City are a big team and they have been even more crap than we’ve been in the […]
Every Gamble Wenger took with our season failed to pay out – Fail to Plan = Plan to Fail
2015/2016 – A Season that Ended so Familiarly Before it Began In the end you do not buy to give one hope, you want to buy because the players who come in can help your squad to be stronger. Buying and selling is one way to strengthen your team, but that is not the only way. […]
