Disheartening, Depressing, Enlightening To be brutally honest, this is the first time in about six or seven years, with the new season about to start, that I actually have some real optimism. Wenger’s decline was disheartening. Unai’s one and a half years were depressing. Arteta’s 6 months have been enlightening. It helps that Saturday’s kick […]
The next subject in my series on Arsenal Youth Stars is Daniel Ballard, recently in the news for making his debut for Northern Ireland before taking his first team bow for Arsenal.

When you question the elevation of Ainsley Maitland-Niles over Saka, just rewind a few weeks and […]
Season of Surprises – Crystal Ball 20/21…. Asking the GT readers (Part 1) For the first time in a generation I’m very excited about an Arsenal season. Fans feed on belief and Mikel Arteta is obliging. To preview the season, I thought it would be fun to ask the Gunners Town readers for your opinion […]
