Did Emery replace our defence with a sieve? This may surprise some, but I think our display wasn’t all bad at Anfield. This ground is an odd one for us – we’ve had some immense highs (1989) and deep lows. This has to go along with the lows. We created chances in some […]
This game against Brighton has to be the worst performance from Arsenal this year. We had 68% possession and were a goal up after 6 minutes yet we could only manage a1-1 draw against a team whose players were shivering with fear at the start of the game. They could not string two passes together […]
It’s time for another news round-up. These are just some thoughts on the happenings around the club lately, both on and off the pitch. It’s both a serious and jesty look at what has been going on at the club we all love. Emery has the bottle… Our manager, Senor Emery, has been […]
Does Mesut Ozil do it in the big games? Mesut Ozil, our once record signing, is a divisive figure amongst us fans. Nobody, really, questions his innate quality. In raw technical terms, only perhaps Dennis Bergkamp or Santi Cazorla can surpass him. However, he is not as consistent as he could be, and in […]
Arsenal about to light the fire 🔥 POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES Sometimes the coach needs to see something so poor in order for the fire to arrive. Ever since I moved from London to the US, I have greatly enjoyed living here but if I was to change something then this would be on the […]
Evening from sunny Noosa A Christmas song from me Drink and be merry Wellmo ………… Fairytale of New Work It was Christmas Eve mate In the North Bank The Clock End said to me, it’s been a good one And then they sang a song An old skool 90s tune About a boy from Uruguay […]
Arsenal 3-1 Burnley review This early kick-off was a chance to get a win after the Scum and Southampton defeats. And we got this, though it wasn’t all plain sailing. Burnley started in the relegation zone, and for this reason alone it was never going to be easy. Sokratis returned, and Elneny started as […]
A more comfortable discomfort POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES When we look back on Emery’s first season I’d say that our first memory will be how he made us a team of men. We bought ‘men’ in the summer and the coach had us working like a team of ‘men.’ Today was uncomfortable throughout but a […]
The Summer Mistake POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES I’m not going in on the transfer team with two feet, but it is becoming very evident that Arsenal needed a natural winger last summer. Whether we kept Reiss Nelson or bought one or two of the names being brandished around, it is obvious that we don’t have […]
Our supposed bad record at the St. Mary’s Stadium in Southampton is continuing, since we lost this game 3-2. The new Southampton manager, Ralph Hassenhutl, managed to get the win here, and in his first home game. As for us, it was in essence more of the same. We played well in parts, but weak […]
