It is the week of Cazorla & Coquelin but is this due to Wenger taking tactical advice from Thierry Henry?
Captain’s Log, star-date 1,1,7,9 point something. I’d been challenged to a Kruz-Na! by the Captain of a Klingon ship and I was ready to fight her to the death, but it turns out that a Kruz-Na! isn’t a battle, it’s something else…something dirty… Manchester City I said last week that a draw […]
Why buy in Spain when Winston Reid is what we need?
I am delighted to welcome a young guest writer to Gunners Town today. His name is Amitay and he is a 16 years old Gunner form Israel who is absolutely in with love Arsenal. You can follow him on twitter @CoqTheRock Following Mathieu Debuchy’s three months injury and Kosicenly and Gibbs’s often fitness concerns – […]
Francis Coquelin, the next Gilberto?
Francis Coquelin was a leader for Arsenal at Manchester City (just a month after playing for Charlton)… Arsène Wenger may have found his new Gilberto Silva – Matt Morlidge for The Daily Mail, January, 19th Don’t get me wrong, Francis Coquelin had a fantastic game at Manchester City last weekend. He was superb in […]
Could Schneiderlin be slipping from Wenger’s mind after Cazorla leads Arsenal to ending Manchester hoodoo?
I must say I woke up a delighted man on Monday morning in light of a wonderful result at the Etihad, with time to reflect on an impressive performance I must touch on a few topics that I believe earned us the win. Firstly I’d like to praise Arsene Wenger for getting it spot on yesterday. […]

Arsenal on course to replace Giroud? A new gunners CF…
While everyone was concerned with which defensive midfielder Arsene was going to get in the summer, I always found time to conduct some extensive research on who could improve our attack; a forward to be precise, but not necessarily a target man. I had so many names, but few were elite-level as the creme of […]
Ahead of City today continuity is surely the key – Who’d have thought it would be Coquelin plus 1?
As the Premier league champions await us on a tricky away trip to City, it’s key that we look to get something out the game to really get our season rolling for the 800th time. Personally I try to no longer get my hopes up for games against the big teams because so many times […]
If Ozil could be the new Bergkamp then Alexis is the new Henry – Stoke, City & Transfer Round Up
Captain’s Log star-date something something 7 point 2. I don’t know. We travelled to Klingon space & hailed one of their cruisers so I could insult their Captain. She challenged me to a Kruz-Na! I assumed it’s some kind of fight to the death, so I’m going over there with Spock, Bones and a couple […]
Wenger please don’t embarrass us in the transfer window when we all know what we need!
The winter window is open you know Arsène? You know, the short period of time during which you are allowed to strengthen your squad, add new faces, and cover holes that went somehow unnoticed in the past three years. I reckon those very little issues were hard to identify, however now they came to light […]
Theo Walcott’s Distinguished Qualities Have Been Missed
With an opportunity to reflect on Theo Walcott’s full return to first team action a week on from the FA Cup test against Hull, the qualities he brings to the side is quite easy to observe. A fully confident Walcott full of match practice may have scored a hat-trick on another day but the rust […]
