Seems I jumped the proverbial gun yesterday with regards to the end of the international break, but thankfully now we all know that the dreaded 'interlull' is behind us after last nights matches, we can start to worry fully about who will play against Watford and what form they will come into the game on. [...]
There's no time for basking in victory right now, the games are coming thick and fast and tomorrow night the team will look to make it three wins in a row by trying to overcome Olympiakos. I must say I do love it when Arsenal play so often, but it doesn't leave you much room [...]
It's very difficult to make a proper assessment on the teams performances after yesterday's defeat, what with the clear injustice that transpired at Stamford Bridge n'all, pretty much ending the contest before the halftime whistle had even been blown. Perhaps we have Gabriel to thank for that, but in truth, he was merely the 'patsy' [...]
So it's the first game of our Champions League campaign for this season and I have to say, it feels nice not having to say that in August, knowing that we are going through a two legged affair just to progress to the group stages proper. But before I go on about The Arsenal, I [...]
Howdy fellas and ladies, hope you're feeling fine and dandy on a Tuesday, wherever you may roam. Let's start today with some words about Mesut. Mainly because I like talking about him. The way he plays football is effortless and ever since we signed him, whenever there's an article or an interview with him, I [...]

For it is he, the man with which so much irritation appears to be directed, who has caused much consternation amongst some Arsenal [...]
Doesn't time fly when you're having fun, eh? This particular phrase has definitely struck a chord with me this morning, as I find myself back on the Metropolitan line train and slowly ambling myself towards my grey prison in central London for my first day back to work after a break in the sun. I [...]
Although I didn't bother to watch any of the international games on yesterday, I have had a quick look at which of the games included key Arsenal players and, after a quick glance online, it appears everybody is safe. For now. By all accounts, Mesut Ozil sounds like he had an effective game for Germany [...]
In the post-international boredom haze that we're currently wading through, there's nothing like a boot in the proverbial balls by the England manager, stating that Danny Welbeck will probably be out for around six months. I'm pretty sure Arsene and some people at the club will have rolled their eyes on that one. The England [...]
I feel like I've been a mellow Gooner this summer. Whilst others around me have wavered, have shown a much more vocal level of irritation with the club's policy, I've maintained my stance that I think the squad is balanced with enough quality players and that although I'd like to see a couple of players [...]
