Are Arsenal better now than last season? The increasing importance of Danny Welbeck, and a fitting test of champions
Good morning ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to a much-belated post from me. I’m afraid that progress waits for no man, and in this case progress took the form of an unexpected business trip across the globe. Lifestyles of the rich and the famous, or in my case, the bloody lucky and eager. Why am […]
Arsene Wenger has Arsenal selection problems to address, while key duo are out for Manchester City
Finally back to domestic football and the Arsenal have a tasty fixture to come as the champions visit North London.

Arsenal have FINALLY signed what they’ve been missing since letting Emmanuel Adebayor leave the Emirates
Dispatches From The Sticks – The mist shroud that had previously hung over the dry stream bed like a ghostly veil parts as a smoke grenade thirty metres away explodes in a fusillade of uncomfortably bright white sparks; utterly searing white sparks and a harrowing grey smoke that almost magically softens into a vivid orange […]
Arsene Wenger has finally FOUND the last quality needed for Arsenal to supersede the Invincibles
And here we go again! It’s the 2014/2015 season and the team photo is out. If I were to compare, I think it is our second best team in the Arsene Wenger era, the first being the invincibles. If someone showed me that picture two years ago and told me Mesut Ozil and Alexis Sanchez […]
ARSENE DOESN’T KNOW? Wenger unaware of Danny Welbeck signing cannot be true and here’s why
The news – or alleged news, to be more accurate – broke a couple of days after Arsenal’s announcement about Danny Welbeck: Arsène Wenger was not aware of the signing of the English forward on permanent basis.

Will Danny Welbeck FLOP at Arsenal? Here are 10 reasons why he CAN fire the Gunners to glory
New boy Danny Welbeck has been a particularly hot topic amongst supporters and neutrals ever since he secured a deadline day move to Arsenal.

Arsenal left with 4th as Cesc Fabregas’ Chelsea are crowned champions and Manchester United win deadline day
DB’s Season Diary Week 2 – Monday 1st September – The Meltdown Cometh… All day we waited, but they never came. We waited for the fabled DM, the beast who would protect us and keep us safe (or is it CDM? The whole place is so awash with consonants I’ve become tired and confused.) We waited for […]
Arsenal eyeing Marco Reus in January, while a FREE defensive midfielder should DEMAND Arsene Wenger’s attention
Hi there all. I trust you are all well and are looking forward to the weekend…as a lecturer who has just had the last month off, this week has been a crash back down to the reality of work, preparation, induction and work. Oh, and work. But please don’t shed a tear for me, not […]
Danny Welbeck personifies POWER SHIFT from Manchester United to Arsenal following Arsene Wenger’s summer of upgrades
The transfer window has now shut with mixed opinions on how Arsenal dealt with their business. Was it a successful transfer window? Gooners ask me.
