Arsene’s margins are fine re: contract; players WILL come in during the summer

Well then, what shall we talk about today, then? Maybe what Arsene said during his presser yesterday? Oh, alright then. Team news is that Mesut is back and after looking like he was going to smash Henry's record, he still needs two more assists just to equal it. It's not been from the want of [...]

Action needed after Welbeck news

Poor old Danny Welbeck. From regularly available, fully fit Man United player, to crocked and barely on the pitch Arsenal player. It seems the injury curse of wearing the cannon on your shirt has struck again.  Nine months. Jeez. I'm sure you're feeling as deflated as I am, but that will be nowhere near as [...]

What difference does Arsenal’s league position make?

I don't seem to recall there being as much build up to the last game at Highbury, as there was yesterday, when West Ham bottled United off the pitch and United bottled it on it. And yes, i know  that there's probably a billion othe people who have used that one, but I don't regret [...]

Poor old Ox, as I think Arsene’s looking up top

By |2017-05-19T20:08:26+01:00May 7th, 2016|Arsenal, Arsenal Transfers, Arsene Wenger, premier league, press conference, Transfers|0 Comments

Let's start today's blog by extending a little bit of sympathy to The Ox, as Arsene surprisingly confirmed yesterday that he's had a knee injury and will now be out for between six to eight weeks. From an Arsenal perspective this impacts us little; he was, after all, injured for the latter part of this [...]

Keep Mesut by surrounding him with talent

Ahh man this international break is dragging, isn't it? It's like the last 15 minutes of your final lesson of the day when you were at school, a subject you absolutely detest and just want to get out in to the sweet, sweet fresh air and freedom. We're at Monday and still a full six days [...]

Is the summer overhaul achievable at Arsenal? 

By |2017-05-19T20:11:10+01:00March 22nd, 2016|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Arsene Wenger, gooners, Gunners, Transfers|3 Comments

Petr Cech has won the Czech Republic footballer of the year, as voted for by the people of his homeland and I'm sure there aren't too many of us that would disagree, given the impact he's had on the team this season. In a summer that was pretty pitiful when it comes to our transfer [...]

Debuchy deal good for all; Arsenal need to get back on the winning wagon

So after all the hype, all the over-the-top Sky Sports blustering, all of the pomp and everything being turned yellow, the transfer deadline day (no, I'm not capitalising it) turned out to be what it is every season: an exercise in how to get overexcited.  I've got to tell you, I was glad we weren't [...]

Monreal is a fan case study for patience

With Monreal the man of the moment, having just signed a new deal with the club, it seems churlish of me to talk about anything other than our Basque left back. Of course I am pleased and delighted that one of our most consistent performers of the season will be at the club with a [...]

Heavy Metal vs Classical tomorrow at Anfield, but this time the symphony should be stronger than previous encounters

So, where better to start today, than the announcement that we'll face Burnley away from home in the fourth round of the FA Cup. Personally and for purely selfish reasons, I'd have fancied Burnley away, as I've got a mate up there and last season The Management and I had a decent road trip up [...]
