ARSENAL THE COMPLETE RECORD does exactly what it says on the tin. A comprehensive tome painstakingly put together in a Labour of love by Josh James, Mark Andrews and Andy Kelly. From the iconic Arsenal photographs on the front and back covers, this book is a work of art. The three men who put […]
I’m happy with this game, and our performance in it. We didn’t win, granted. But then Liverpool is a serious team now and is further down the cycle from us in terms of challenging for and winning leagues. They certainly have had better transfer windows than us of late, and have brought in better […]
Occam’s Razor is the philosophical principle that the simplest solution to any problem is usually the correct one. For Arsenal, that problem – perhaps their longest standing of many – has been the inability to field a consistently competent and sturdy midfield. It has been some 10 years since Gilberto Silva departed North London and […]
Not ready to win it, but can Arsenal compete for the league? POSITIVES, NEEDS and HOPES As important as winning the big games is the belief gained. If I were Unai Emery, I would ask the players if they felt they were at the same level as Liverpool. Do not tell them. Some may just […]
King Jenkinson: the man who succeeded where all else failed. It’s official, Carl Jenkinson is a true Arsenal legend. Forget Bendtner, forget Ibrahimovic, forget Ronaldo (both of them), Carl Jenkinson is a true footballing god. After all, he represented TWO countries at international level. He’s seen off international right backs such as, Sagna, Santos […]
Ok, I’m being spoilt. Arsenal have won yet again and it’s not quite enough. Perhaps I speak for many when I say that we are ok with it but we are a little worried. Worried that good results with only good performances for 30-50% of the game may be a habit that won’t last. The […]
Just some Robbie I used to know So RVP will hang up his boots at the end of the season and to most Gooners he is a footnote in Arsenal history. He shoulda choulda been an Arsenal legend, but when push came to shove, the ‘little boy inside’ told him to chase the money and […]
By Gary Lawrence THEO GIVE US A BALL is the autobiography of Theo Foley co-authored by Theo and his son Paul. When Paul sent me a copy of their book he told me that once I start reading it I wouldn’t be able to put it down and he wasn’t wrong. It’s a cracking read […]
3 decisive moments…. Positives, Needs and Hopes Well, that wasn’t easy but that’s good for us. Will help us prepare for more difficult games. Three decisive moments decided the outcome. Mr. Rash had obviously been missing his close relationship with the grass and so decided to make a visit via whacking Kouyate. How long will […]
Crystal Palace 2-2 Arsenal Premier League review This was a real blood and guts game. Palace had a game plan, and this was to rough up, tackle, press, and hassle us. And it worked for them, largely. They were not high up in the table, however, they hadn’t scored a goal before today at […]
