Arsene’s lack of transfer activity should be cheered by Arsenal fans – ‘Victoria Concordia Crescit’
Yesterday’s Press Conference (Telegraph agrees with AW) “I believe we have the quality, and it’s now about how much we can be stronger together,” he said. “We have to move forward together, which for me it is more important than dreaming about finding a miraculous player who wins you everything.” Arsène Wenger’s apparent inactivity in […]
We can win the league even without further additions – Chelsea did it with less
“We are not going to challenge unless we buy a DM and that world-class striker. Giroud is not good enough to win us the league, while we are one injury away from using Arteta whose legs have gone”. Apparently Arteta’s legs have left Colney in Diaby’s pockets on his way out, but I’m not here […]
Gio: the unsung Arsenal hero that Thierry rated
Today’s Arsenal unsung hero is a bit of a left-field shout. it is a fair to say that he had a fairly unassuming Arsenal career, and there isn’t really one single standout moment from him wearing the Arsenal colours…but…for me, he was part of one of the most exciting summers that I can remember. He […]
Arsenal are back -Chuba, Dan, Gedion watch and a new keeper to Cech on!
Arsenal are back! Wednesday. That’s when I can stop forcing myself to care about Cricket/Tennis/Golf and get back to normality. The mighty Arsenal have traveled to Singapore to compete in the Barclays Asia Trophy and will take on a Singapore Select XI in a match that really is only about gauging fitness levels and making […]
Sorry Aaron but Santi Cazorla, Arsenal’s ‘Hidden Leader’ is the Key to our success and title challenge
When you think of the term leader and Arsenal football club, who are the first names that spring to mind? The aptly named ‘Bosscielny’? The Renaissance man that is Francis Coquelin? Alexis Sanchez? I suppose the Chilean did figuratively ‘carry’ the team in the latter stages of 2014, and we thank our mercurial master for […]
Why Arsenal will NOT sign Benzema or Cavani and the truth about the Higuain deal
DB’s Silly Season Diary Returns….. #WhoopsWeDidItHiguain Well, this is it. The window is officially open, the Copa whatever it’s called is finished, and pre-season training has begun. So we can expect a flurry of transfer activity over the next few weeks, and we are well within our rights to stamp our feet and shake our fists […]
Four weeks away from cheating and diving players; Nasty managers with cynical tactics……
Well are you all excited about the return of the Premier League in 4 weeks? I am sure we all are or are we? Recently I got back in touch with an old work colleague from the later 1980’s, actually through a comment on a blog of all things. Subsequently we exchanged and email or […]
The Explanation for Arteta is ‘Leadership Buy-In’ from the current squad – What makes a Captain?
When news of an extension of Arteta’s contract by one-year surfaced; Arsenal twitter did not disappoint. The WOB used it as ammo to support their cause – further proof that Wenger does not want success because this means a DM will not be signed when we are in dire need of one. The AKB group […]
Arsenal are a larger club than Tottenham: this shouldn’t even be a debate
For a couple of years now I’ve tried to grasp the concept of Arsenal and Tottenham hating each other on all levels: from fans to the board. I do realise that emotions are irrational. You hate someone just because you hate someone. Full stop. And yet, and yet… Surely fans aren’t born with this. It’s […]
Arsenal and Arsene’s Finest Frenchmen – Le Groove’s Top 10 French Gunners
Before Arsene Wenger, whilst still seeing out his contract in Japan, instructed David Dein to but Patrick Vieira Arsenal had not employed a Frenchman. In reality Paddy was the first and Arsene the second but since then our manager has frequently popped back to his homeland and returned with a bargain or two. We have […]
