Alan Alger – The Day I Scored The Last Ever Goal At Highbury… It was the 8th of June 2006 – one month and one day after Thierry Henry’s hat-trick had seen off Wigan as the fans said farewell to our iconic home. I was back at the ‘Home of Football’ to play in a […]
Arsène Wenger seems a ruthless man, these days: he quickly sanctioned the move for Granit Xhaka, splashing between £ 30m and £ 40m to secure the signature of the Swiss midfielder, then activated Jamie Vardy’s release clause and tabled a 4-years contract worth £ 120,000-a week for the England striker – leaving many pondering what […]
Olivier Giroud has struggled to inspire confidence in recent months but the Arsenal centre-forward has the perfect chance to build some momentum for France at the European Championship this summer.

Mesut Ozil came within touching distance of breaking Thierry Henry’s assist record in the Premier League last season.

That’s right its silly season coinciding with barbecue season once more; […]
Arsenal have kicked off the summer transfer window by signing Swiss central midfielder Granit Xhaka from Bundesliga side Borussia Monchengladbach. And as delighted as one is by the prospect of the skipper of Germany’s 4th best team coming to our club, I must confess never really seeing much of the player. I’m not prepared to […]
It would seem the murmurs about Heinrikh Mkhitaryan to Arsenal just won’t quite die down and since it had become apparent that the Armenian is refusing to sign a new deal at Dortmund the talk is louder again. There is no doubt Arsenal have had him watched but then I suspect most of the top […]
In the closing stages of our final game of the season against Aston Villa, for the first time in the entire campaign, I felt truly united with all my fellow Arsenal supporters.
