Arsene rotates and I’m still not happy – hey, i’m human

Howdy Gooners, how goes it? Are you feeling good on a Saturday? I had a bit of an unprompted late one, with a beer or two, some rum, a bit of champers and some fine Nepalese food, which was followed by going to bed about 1am watching a programme about all of the crap TV [...]

Arsène needs to settle on a style soon

We had Hector sign his deal recently, then yesterday all the noise coming out of the club centred around Emi Martinez signing his agreement to stay at the club for an extended period. It's clear that those at the club who matter rate him quite highly, but I always find these types of deals for [...]

PSG – Arsène can’t put the player puzzles together again

Ok folks, we clearly have a wee bit of an issue now, because for something like the fourth game in a row I saw an Arsenal side who didn't really click at all. And it's starting to worry me.  Middlesbrough at home, Sunderland away for the most part (until we turned the after burners on [...]

Incorrect team set up is spared blushes by Ollie G

What is it about Old Trafford? What is it about Jose Mourinho? Both seem to bring out the worst - performance-wise - in Arsène Wenger teams. Yesterday was a painful game to watch. It was 45 minutes of tedium followed by 45 minutes of under performance from Arsenal players, which was only spared by a [...]

Arsenal must overcome an Old Trafford psychological barrier

I don't know whether it's because it's early in the morning and I'm still tired, having had a few jars in the city last night and not returning home until 1am, but as I write this pre match preview blog I don't feel as nervous as I usually do about today's away trip to Old [...]

Arsène: don’t gamble, just win

As expected, Arsène addressed the media ahead of this weekend on Thursday rather than Friday, with the team travelling oop norf today at some stage. No doubt Alexis will be with them, having told Le Boss that he's ok via text. Ahh texting, remember that? The thing that we all used to do before Whatsapp, [...]

What’s Jack gotta do to be an Arsenal boy again?

After Jack Wilshere was quoted admitting he's not sure if he'll play for Arsenal again, I've been thinking over the last day or so: What would it take for him to play for Arsenal again? It's an interesting question because I don't think it's as black or white as some people make out. Some suggest [...]
