Have you ever had that moment in your life where it takes an incident – big or small – to wake up a dormant belief within you? This happened to me last week. I was walking down the street and saw a few kids, hardly between 8-10 years of age, hanging around outside their apartment […]
I was reading “Invincible” by Amy Lawrence last night, I read the whole book in one go because I simply couldn’t stop turning one page after another: the feeling of pride was overwhelming, as was the amount of details given away by Amy. The importance of chemistry in the building of a team, the innovations […]
If you have ever played the original Uncharted game (run to the store asap if you haven’t), then you know there are five difficulty settings there: very easy, easy, normal, hard and crushing. The first three correspond to their respective names. On hard things get much trickier and I think there would have been few […]
There has been a lot of talk on my TL about Arsenal in Europe. There were plenty of fans wanting the humiliation of finishing bottom of our Champions League Group, rather than play in the Europa League. Some even going so far as wanting us to deliberately lose games. Strategically losing games is a dangerous […]
It all started way back when, way back when Gary Lewin decided to up sticks and head for the bright lights of St Georges Park and Team England. On his way out of the door he shouted back to Arsene, “I know a guy, he’ll see you right. I’ll call you from the car” Bemused, […]
The Arsenal has finally found its way into the safe harbour of Port Win after making its way through several obstacles.

Sepp Blatter, Michel Platini, Jose Mourinho. Some of the most divisive of figures in this beautiful game of ours, but they are mainly men who give the game a bad rep. Another man, who divides the footballing spectrum the most, especially amongst Arsenal fans, and sympathizers, is our very own French-born Economics ‘Professor’ cum Manager, […]
Finally. A win. A pretty good performance with a threadbare squad. Another Ozil assist, his 12th in 14 outings. Only thing lacking was the clean sheet, one which would have taken Cech level with James and one which he thoroughly deserved. It wasn’t our best performance, granted. After the 1st half we didn’t look any […]
After the passing of yet another disappointing November, a month that has often proved difficult for the club, you would expect Arsenal supporters to relish the beginning of December, where a busy fixture schedule provides an opportunity to bounce back from recent setbacks. Sadly with several key players joining an already lengthy injury list, it […]
Howdy. It’s been a gloomy couple of days for the Arsenal faithful. Earlier in the week Guardian reported Cazorla suffered knee ligament damage, which is likely to keep our ambidextrous regista sidelined for around three months. This news, coupled with a long-term injury to Coquelin, means our central midfield pairing of choice for almost […]
