Arsene is a square peg and the players are a round hole. The Arsenal Way Fast, fluid attacking football, with an emphasis on counter attacking. That is the Arsenal way, or should I say the Arsene way, because we certainly didn’t play that way under George Graham or Bruce Rioch. Perhaps I should even say […]
Arsenal to face a Tricky Summer of Contract Negotiations from Potentially a Position of Weakness
It is a quiet time for Arsenal and the Premier League during the international break but this only leaves Arsenal fans with more time on their hands to squabble like children in the social media playground.

Arsene’s Trust Bank Hits An All-Time Low
Gunners Town is pleased to host this guest post by James Howson (@BigJimmy_V) Is Arsene running out of trust? On Saturday after defeat to West Brom, during the post-match press conference Arsene Wenger disclosed that he has made a decision about his future, that he hasn’t told anyone and we will soon find out what […]
Arsenal Crushed by the Weight of Wenger’s Waiting Game
Will he stay or will he go? Not sure about you, but I’m really sick of Arsène Wenger’s new contract saga and, for one, found absolutely clumsy – at best – and disrespectful what he said post-West Brom, when he claimed he made a decision and “we will know soon. Very soon.” This is not […]
Highbury Didn’t Die For This – A Brutal Assessment by a Veteran Gooner
What is going on at our football club?! I’m a disgruntled season ticket holder who’s been going along to watch The Arsenal for over 50 years now and I’m finding it increasingly hard to justify paying over a £1,000 a season to watch a bunch of under-performing, pampered prima donnas. I can’t ever remember the […]
Should He Stay Or Should He Go? The Ultimate Showdown
The gloves are off. In the red corner we have Arsenal Wenger; and the Clash (reworked); Gooners you got to let me know Should I stay or should I go? If you say that you are mine I’ll be here ’til the end of time So you got to let me know Should I stay […]
Oxlade-Chamberlain to play in a 343 for England and maybe Arsenal?
There is an increasing trend it seems in the Premier League to play variations of systems that deploy three central defenders. Indeed, so far this season, it is only Wenger and Arsenal from the current top six that have not experimented with three at the back. Conte and Chelsea have stormed the league with a […]
Wenger backs his players but they are not backing him – #WBAvAFC
The feeling that something has gone so badly wrong it’s beyond repair has haunted me for a while now. Normally, after Arsenal lose a couple of games, or lose just one but in spectacular fashion, they walk the walk in the next game or two and bounce back. Now they don’t. The problem goes further: […]
Stats Don’t Lie: Arsenal are Sideways Passing themselves into Oblivion
The stats don’t lie A rework of Example’s 2011 tune ‘Skies don’t lie’ Possession high Passes run dry Seasons die And the stats don’t lie This basically sums it all up !!!!! Possession: 23% vs 77% Passes: 224 vs 743 Score: 3 – 1 3 times the possession, 3 times the passes, -3 times the […]
