In a world of such disunity, with such things as Brexit, Trump or indeed Jose Mourinho, dividing so many, it’s good to know an Arsenal player can unite many to a common cause, that heroic player is Mesut Ozil. A polarising figure among the old school crowd and the romantics, he once again is under […]
Massive strides for superior Arsenal… Positives, Needs and Hopes When you simplify sport you get some gems of ideas!. We are superior to Vorskla. Even our 2/3/4th string. So… what is it we are superior at? If you can figure that out as a coach and get your team to act on it, […]
FC Vorksla 0-3 Arsenal Europa League Review The kids, and some oldies too, did well in stricken Ukraine. Despite the moving of the venue, due to serious political tensions between Russia and Ukraine, the kids amongst the oldies, did well to get a spectacular win here. Smith-Rowe shone brightly and grabbed an early […]
To follow on from Part 1 I promised to look at where the limited budget might be spent, if I believe it will not go on the winger most fans feel we want. For me it is increasingly apparent, that for the moment at least, Emery sees the width in this team being provided by […]
Arsenal points of interest – 27th Nov. 2018 Should the club sell Mkhitaryan? Whilst many of us are naturally content with the 2-1 win vs. Bournemouth, Mkhitaryan’s performance brought much thinking and musing amongst fans. I’m a fan of the podcast by Gooner Eagle Eye on Youtube and Twitter, in which he features […]
We got a good win at Bournemouth, and my match review prediction was right. But I’m not here to just big myself up. Bournemouth started the game well and had an offside goal ruled out, but the TV cameras showed that it was not offside after all. We possibly got lucky there, but Bournemouth also […]
Arsenal calm the rumbling storm…. Positives, Needs and Hopes I was trying to figure out (yet again) why games against Bournemouth seem so frantic. Is it the small, compact, noisy stadium? The tight camera angle? Almost seems like a game from the 90’s, end-to-end, vertical and nerve-wracking. Very little control especially in the first […]
AFC BOURNEMOUTH VS. ARSENAL PREVIEW We’re heading to the South Coast, and take on Bournemouth. who under Eddie Howe have performed very well this season. They currently are in sixth place – one behind us incidentally – and have continued much of what Howe has been noted for. Quick passing, good technical skills, and […]
International breaks can be rather dull and more so these days with little Arsenal interest, certainly from an England perspective. In a tenuous link however we happy Gooners, are more than quietly confident that our interest in The Three Lions may well change in the not too distant future. In recent years, we have pondered […]
Now to the horrific attack on a taxi driver in the centre of Copenhagen in early September. The middle aged driver had picked up his last ride of the night, who he described as blonde, 6 ft tall, sort of athletic looking and that he referred to himself as ‘Lord’. When he had stopped and […]
