Despite Arsene Wenger’s protestations that there have been no contract extension talks as of yet, Arsenal chief executive Ivan Gazidis’ comments this week suggest that an offer to the 62 year old Frenchman to extend his spell in charge at the Emirates beyond 2014 is imminent. Indeed, Wenger’s proclamations and delaying tactics have been seen […]
Top 5 things to do during the International break
The international breaks seem to come at a strange time. Considering we’ve had a full of football throughout Euro 2012 and the London Olympic Games, it has taken just three games into the new Premier League season for us to once again put country in front of club. Now not everyone is a great fan […]
Three of the Best
The season may only be three games old, but since the end of the last campagin there are already a number of positives to take away from the year so far. Our 2012/13 Premier League adventure has so far seen us endure goalless draws at home to Sunderland and away at Stoke City as well […]
Could Drogba still cut it at Arsenal?
I wake up this morning getting ready for my shift with Sports Mole and see that someone on the site has covered the story that Arsenal are reportedly after Didier Drogba. Apparently we’ve already made numerous official enquiries about the former Chelsea man who haunted us for years.
Arsenal gear up for what could be a telling run of fixtures
Despite the international interlull, Arsene Wenger is sure to already be plotting his tactics for the next few weeks, which he defines himself as a hugely vital one in determining where his team will be challenging this season. Arsenal impressed in their 2-0 victory at Anfield with a stylish, slick performance. But perhaps it should […]
Alex set to reach seventh heaven
Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain is almost certain to earn his seventh England cap on Tuesday at Wembley against a strong Ukraine side, but the Arsenal man will have to maintain his level of performance beyond forty-five minutes this time. That’s the view of England boss Roy Hodgson, who expects a sustained effort from the winger if selected […]
Support Our Ladies
The international breaks usually mean that I am bored. This break was really nothing different. My Czechs were not on television (big surprise), and the Canadians were playing Panama with a CONCACAF official. Finding a topic to write on can be a chore and also very difficult.
The year of Diaby
One of the most pleasing aspects of the season so far has to be the return of Abou Diaby. Ever since arriving in North London back in 2006 from Auxerre, the big man has been dealt injury blow after blow which has really held up his Gunners career.
Lay off Giroud and give the poor guy some time
Quite frankly, the pressure that Oliver Giroud is under and the abuse that he has taken from some fans (Gooners or not) is disgusting. Yes we can expect him to score goals, yes we can expect him to create goals as well but the guy hasn’t even started three games yet.
We need to go forward, not Bac
Bacary Sagna has publicly criticised Arsenal’s transfer policy in light of Alex Song’s recent departure from the Emirates, and not many will disagree with the Frenchman’s concerns. Having already lost Robin Van Persie to rivals Manchester United earlier this summer, the sale of Song to Barcelona has left Sagna and Arsenal fans bewildered. Gunners supporters […]
