The feel-good factor is well and truly back at the Emirates. Having been made to wait to correct our defeat to Manchester United due to the international break, Arsenal returned to winning ways once again on Saturday with a very good win against a top Southampton team. To add to that, Liverpool and Manchester United […]
Week Fifteen – Arsenal are back By the time you read this the last international break for a while will be well and truly forgotten, and we will be free to focus on The Arsenal for a few months. We are going into a crucial period now, and the fact that we are top of […]
Arsenal returned to winning ways as they edged past a decent Southampton side 2-0 at the Emirates Stadium, to go four points clear at the top of the Premier League. Olivier Giroud scored two gift-wrapped goals, one from the penalty spot, in a game that saw a return to the squad for Theo Walcott […]
So another interlull passes by and I still find it difficult to see the need for these pointless friendlies. Obviously playing for the country remains the ultimate honour but looking at a country like England, you do feel the caps are being handed out easily in the name of experiment. And not to forget the […]
Welcome back to your weekly blog that tries to put a few quid into your pockets. The Arsenal welcome a very impressive Southampton in what could be the game of the weekend. Southampton have proved themselves to be a real handful in the Premier League this season with their high energy pressing game. Luckily […]

Week after week of Roy Hodgson’s earnest, honest, non-threatening dull pub football standard play, with Scotty Parker, Stevie Gerrard, Frankly Lampard and Rickie Lambert all gracing our screens and ploughing up a perfectly good pitch. […]
What earns a player their spot back in the squad, is it their strong practice effort or does someone have to screw up? Arsene Wenger has publicly praised Thomas Vermaelen’s efforts in training but the captain’s opportunities remain limited. Laurent Koscielny has conceded his third penalty of the season, maybes it is time he cedes […]
This week I look at one of Arsenal’s most promising young talents and remind people that he does indeed still exist! After first hearing about a 16 year old being kept under wraps early last season, I began to become both excited and curious as to who the player was. As last season wore on, […]
Arsenal Ladies are now in the Champions League quarter-finals after a master-class over Glasgow City Ladies. These two fixtures were never going to be easy with Glasgow the current Scottish Premier League champions and far from pushovers, but Shelley Kerr’s side won 3-0 in their home leg and came through a hard-earned 3-2 win in […]
