It’s not about Alexis Sánchez staying or going. It’s not about Mesut Özil signing a new contract or walking out on a free. It’s not about Jack Wilshere being out of contract and Calum Chambers getting a new deal. It’s not about offering Danny Welbeck a 2-years extension and see him hesitating. It’s about […]

Last Chance Saloon for Wenger, Senior Fringe Players and Arsenal’s domestic season – CFCvAFC Semi
We take on Chelsea for the the second time inside 6 days and my fear Wenger is going to field a squad not dissimilar to the one which crashed out of the cup three days ago. Mercifully, there’s the small matter of these guys having to play a second game in just a matter of […]
Don’t expect Arsenal to ‘Splash the Cash’ if decision made for Wenger to leave this Summer
I began 2018 with a resolution to get back to writing twice a week and here we are on the 9th January and I have failed already. Why? Because there is virtually nothing about my team and events surrounding Arsenal that have inspired me to write. Well of course that is not strictly true and […]
14 Major Failings/Themes Identified at Arsenal
I have read a lot of commentaries on our disastrous defeat on Sunday. There are common themes in all of them and I am thoroughly dismayed at the threads running through many of them which some of my contemporaries are highlighting.

Will Wenger now finally Embrace Europa League?
Will Wenger finally Embrace Europa League? There hasn’t been much buzz around the Europa League draw from Gunners fans. Perhaps the prospect of a freezing away trip to Östersunds in northern Sweden wasn’t welcomed with open arms like a trip to Milan or Bilbao would be. However, as most Arsenal fans have not been shy […]
An Open Letter to Antiquated Arsene, Subservient Steve, Short-armed Stan and Ivan the Terrible
Richard Branson once said, “We are human beings, not human doings”. This is a great mantra for life, (and one I should personally follow a lot closer) but this doesn’t work for a football club. Just being a football club doesn’t cut it. You have to do as well and Arsenal Football Club are not […]
Arsenal hit new low as they crash out of FA Cup
Nottingham Forest 4-2 Arsenal FA Cup 3rd Round January 7th 2018 This is a new low. Forest have tradition, and have done things we haven’t (European Cup). But then we allowed them to bully us, press us, and dominate our defence. Online betting sites such as 888Sport and virtually the whole footballing world had Arsenal […]
When Wenger’s search for Cohesion Goes Wrong: Arsenal’s Rotational Issues
It’s October 19, 2016, and Arsenal is facing Ludogorets in the Champions League group stage. Yeah, that game where Ozil gets the hat-trick. Arsenal is in form, having won its last 6 matches, including the first 2 in the group, and is facing a team at the Emirates that has only one Champions League victory […]
Finally an actual solution to the problem that is Arsenal – Part 3
If you were in charge at Arsenal Football Club (Part 3) Arteta is in charge. Koulibaly has taught our defenders Senegalese. Meunier has shown the fans what a RB with skill can produce. The new midfield is powerful, found a Santi replacement and replaced the looks of Xhaka with the looks and mobility of […]
