Who’s next for Arsène? Nobody we know.

I could really do without more stories about Jamie Vardy and Arsenal now, y'know? The latest one we have to endure is that he wasn't convinced That Arsenal's possession-based football would suit him. I kinda get that, to be honest, but I am surprised that he doesn't feel confident enough in his own ability to [...]

If Özil’s parents had emigrated…

I'd like to say that youd have to give an almighty Nelson Muntz'esque 'ha-ha!' to Spain, after their defeat to Croatia yesterday, but after watching pockets of the game in between making a late dinner and eating said dinner, I've come to a different conclusion. Croatia are actually quite good.  They did England/Sp*rs up their [...]

An upgrade on Vardy please; Xhaka looks a cracker

Well, it looks as though my assumptions based on the Vardy situation were a bit off, eh? You'd have to say so, after Arsène was interviewed on Chinese TV suggesting that the striker will most likely stay at Leicester. It'll be a bizarre decision if it happens, but if that's the case then I'm not sure [...]

The Ramsey/Wilshere debate and the upside of an England exit

By |2017-05-19T20:08:21+01:00June 16th, 2016|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, gooners, Gunners, Internationals|0 Comments

Today is being billed by Arsenal Twitter as #TeamWilshere versus #TeamRamsey, as Wales take on England and I take on my business to ensure I secure a longer than usual lunch hour, along with most of the gents in my office. Probably. The reality is that as long as they both don't break each other's [...]

Raiola is taking the Mkhi

Sometimes people do get a little too worried about stuff that they can have absolutely no influence on, don't they? Of course this being an Arsenal blog, and me being somebody who regularly writes about Arsenal related stuff, I've probably shown a few examples of that in the past, but this morning and last night [...]

Arsène’s balancing act with Giroud

By |2016-06-11T09:54:32+01:00June 11th, 2016|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Arsene Wenger, gooners, Gunners, Internationals|0 Comments

Despite being much maligned by, it seems, most fanbases, I must say I found it satisfying to see Olivier Giroud get his Euro2016 tournament underway, last night in Paris. We all know his limitations. We all know that an over-reliance on him has cost us over recent years, but what his goal and performance showed [...]

Vardy’s choice shouldn’t really be a choice at all

By |2017-05-19T20:08:21+01:00June 7th, 2016|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Attack, gooners, Gunners, Transfers|4 Comments

So, in classic Arsenal style, we've been inadvertently drawn into another transfer saga. One in which, if we're all honest, shouldn't even be something that we're talking about. Jamie Vardy has done all of his talking, he's had offer and counter offer in this unusually public courtship for Arsenal, now he finds himself with a [...]

What would England give for a Santi? Or a Bellerin? They have a Jack though…

Today I embark on a journey that will see me climb the UK's three biggest 'peaks' (although I have some kiwis in my team that assure me that they're just 'inclines' - they would know I guess) in the space of 24 hours and, if you were to see the amount of paraphernalia I have [...]
