The Premier League’s ‘Big Six’ isn’t a fixed concept. Fifteen years ago, you might have argued it was more of a ‘Big Three’. Whereas ten years ago, there were maybe four teams who challenged for the title. The number of teams who hit that peak of performance, and dominate both home and away, can shift […]
On occasions when our manager and players have failed to deliver in games, some of our supporters including myself, have criticised them, so by the same token, it’s only fair that we praise them when they do perform. After previously questioning some of Mikel Arteta’s tactics and decisions, it was perhaps inevitable that I would […]
Respecting Gabriel’s Partey It’s very rare that pundits have anything nice to say about The Arsenal and our players. It’s as rare as rocking horse excrement that ex United player pundits have anything nice to say about The Arsenal and our players, but after Monday night’s performance, the unthinkable happened and Red Pundits FC had […]
Manchester United 0-1 Arsenal – 14 years is way too long! This isn’t a peak Man United side by no means. Yes, they finished third last season and have some top players like Pogba, Fernandes, Rashford, and now Cavani. But to win at Old Trafford after 14 years with some debasing defeats (8-2), […]

Arsenal head into the game against Manchester United on Sunday in something of a rut. Back to back league defeats against Manchester City and Leicester have taken the shine off of a promising preseason and transfer window. For the first time in his brief managerial career questions are being asked of Mikel Arteta. On the […]
Last week saw Arsenal award two further first professional contacts to exciting talents turning 17. One was for our previous interview subject Charlie Patino and the other for an exciting Hale End graduate, central defender Zane Monlouis. Timely therefore for this week’s Youth Star catch up with resident expert John Williamson (@willow1860) to on Monlouis. […]
Not what you want, but what we need POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES Yesterday I was reminded about two players at Arsenal that I’d somewhat forgotten about. I’d fallen into joining much of Arsenal twitter and thinking that Joe Willock was only useful as a versatile runner and presser when other’s legs had fallen off. I […]
