Arsène to give new manager an ‘inheritance’ like he got?
It was a fair few years ago now that our Head of Academy Development (of variation of job title thereof) coined the phrase 'automatisms' in an interview when talking about the little partnerships and bits that 'click' within a component parts of a team, but that's what has me thinking this morning. Specifically after we [...]

Penalties, points and clean sheets: who are you and what have you done with Arsenal?
Where to evening start this morning. Arsenal won a football match. Again. Arsenal scored three goals. Arsenal kept a clean sheet. Petr Cech saved a flipping pelanty.

Tribalism within tribalism: the myopia of some Arsenal fans
Morning all, hope yours is a good one, filled with optimism for what the day ahead might bring? For me it's a standard working day but that doesn't mean you shouldn't try to take what pleasures you can from it. After all, every day that passes by is a day you'll never get to relive, [...]

It’s ‘Ex-pro two-penneth’ week for Arsenal
Morning folks. We're two days down from the latest Arsenal farce in the shape of the Brighton result, with two days between us and the next potential melt down on the pitch from a collective of Arsenal players with no confidence or belief. I guess you could call this the eye of the storm? The [...]
