Big night for rotated players to shine for Arsenal

Hooray for match day I say! After the last few days of it being about Ivan and his departure, after back-to-back away games in between an international break, we finally get back to The Arsenal at home and tonight is the first time I'm back to The Emirates since the opening day defeat to City. [...]

Nelson’s move to Hoffenheim is good all round; Europa League thoughts

Morning one and all and welcome to another weekend. One in which we have to wait until Sunday - once again - before we get to see The Arsenal in action. Still, at least we have some interesting titbits of information to digest, starting with the Europa League draw. Never underestimate the power of the [...]

And so it ends. Not with a bang, but a whimper

In many ways the way in which we went out of the tie against Atletico was emblematic of the final years of Arsène's reign as manager. Defensively not at the races, offensively not quite potent enough, with players that at times look like they were trying but ultimately the team just wasn't good enough. Weirdly [...]

Memories gifted to Gooners that many will never have

Morning folks. Y'alreet? Feeling excited? Nervous? Can't wait until Thursday? I am all of the above. I would also add 'petrified' because in the main I worry that by this weekend the season - and Arsène's reign - will slowly chug to a very undramatic ending with games at home to Burnley, away to Leicester [...]

Arsenal’s soft underbelly may have cost us a final

Sigh. I sigh because despite our opponents on the night Atletico Madrid being down to ten men, despite having lots of the possession, despite creating plenty of chances, despite an amazing atmosphere in the ground (I'll ignore the horrific flags we were given - think post marathon foil they give you, or a red bag [...]

Move the ball quicker, find Özil, hope for a season-defining performance against Atleti

And so here we are my friends. Potentially the last of two 'big games' that Arsène Wenger May face as Arsenal manager. The league is done. It's a procession towards the final stages of his tenure because we have nothing left to play for domestically. It all boils down to Atletico Madrid home and away. [...]

Arsène Wenger: Die the hero or live the villain?

As Bjork so famously once said: It's oh so quiet...it's oh so still... There's nowt on out to shout about that's for sure. No "we must respond", no "learn our lessons", no reported deep and meaningful team 'heart-to-heart's. Just radio silence. I don't necessarily mind that though. I think everyone associated with Arsenal is just [...]
