After 19 games we find ourselves in the midst of a title fight which we are more than capable of winning. Here are six things to consider when talking about the title fight. 1. Tricky away games We have trips away to both Manchester teams, both Liverpool teams as well as white hart lane and […]
And the 2016 winner is….. It’s the start of a new year and in keeping with tradition, I thought I would ask some well known football brains their predictions for the rest of the season. Firstly, I tracked down Maureen in a swanky west end wine bar; spending his redundancy money; TheSundayMorningGooner – “Who will win […]
It was such a refreshing performance. It’s a beautiful life folks. Manchester City have done us a favour by drawing with Leicester because that means we are top of the Premier League at the start of 2016 and that City are 3 points off the pace completely. I wonder what might have been if we […]
At this time of year you naturally tend to reflect on the year just gone and what lies ahead. So let me indulge myself. A serious read so you need to be sitting down! Given the recent cult of the ‘superstar’ manager and how many of us have become swayed by their influence and supposed […]
Support Arsenal and enjoy the ride Just when you thought it was safe to believe….The Arsenal rollercoaster starts up again.We beat Chelsea, then lose to The Hammers.We beat United, then lose to West Brom.We beat City, then we lose to Southampton.

Who is Mohamed Elneny? Barely known outside the Swiss Super League, the Egyptian midfielder is reportedly very likely to join the Arsenal as soon as the transfer window re-opens on January, 1st – with several media already talking about fee agreed, contract negotiations et cetera… Whether it is true or not – and I personally […]
As the start of the 2015-16 campaign approached, I suggested that winning the league title this season was a realistic possibility, even more so if we were able to add at least one more player of quality to the squad and following our victory against Manchester City, it had appeared that both the manager and […]
If any of you were thinking about a nice festive period with absolutely no surprises, then I’m sorry for you guys. Just like me you have been done in by Arsenal Football Club and its promises of being top. No problem though because that Mahrez bloke goes up against Manchester City today and I dare […]
Boxing Day was a huge reality check for the players and the manager as it came immediately after the highs of the win over Manchester City. The 4-0 drubbing at Southampton was not what you’d expect from title favourites but fortunately for Arsenal, just about any team in the league looks capable of taking a […]
When I saw Fonte power his header past Cech in the 66th minute, I turned the game off. It’s what I always do when the Gunners go 3 down. I haven’t watched us lose to United 8-2. I haven’t witnessed our 6-0 humiliation at the hands of Chelsea, or the 5-1 at Anfield. Even this […]
