New born indoctrination; Benzema would not be like Özil situation

Eugh. Full of cough/cold and relatively little sleep, coupled with the fact there's bugger all happening in the Arsenal world, means this is one heck of a crud-diddly-udd way to start the working week. The only saving grace of positivity for today was that a new family member entered the world last night in the [...]

Alexis' success good for us?

Alexis Sanchez will be a happy boy today, after chipping the winning penalty to see Chile win the Copa America, so after a season of somewhat success at Arsenal just gone (and I say 'somewhat' not because of his personal success, or the teams, but I get the feeling the squad are all happy with [...]

Should we be pleased with the fixture tampering by TV companies?

It's bloody typical that the start of the season for me is choca-block with things I can't get out of, like stag dos, weddings and other such family occasions. But, what is more bloody typical is that having already made my plans to unfortunately offload my tickets to a couple of games, I find myself [...]

No surprises any more, but it's still good we're making statements like Cech

So yesterday, after all of the speculation, endless retelling of his impending arrival and all-round media bluster, Arsenal confirmed that Petr Cech was officially an Arsenal player. I, like you, am very pleased. I'll talk a little bit about the signing in a sec, but as I chewed the fat with a fellow Gooner in [...]

What Arsenal need to win the Premier League

Howdy there and happy Friday to you. It's the end of a working week for some and a holiday week for others, but we're still waiting on a signing that might or might not happy and whom I'm pledging not to talk about until it does, even though I kind of already have in this [...]

Fixture lists are only relevant because of personal circumstances

Greetings to you and yours from a sunny Portugal. It's a bit of R&R for me and the Management for the next week and a half, so apologies if the timing of blogs is a bit sporadic, because it will most likely depend on my blood/Sagres beer levels as to how quickly I can rouse [...]

'Poor' Abou, avoiding the bargain bucket and Arsène's judgement

Poor old Abou Diaby. Released by Arsenal as of the end of June, his has been a career that could have promised so much, yet because of a North Eastern based call centre yob, was smashed in to as many pieces as his ankle was after Dan Smith made his horrible tackle all those years [...]

Cech saga to drag on, which is fine by me; Santi scoops third

It seems that we're in full flow on the transfer tittle-tattle-go-round, which means the happiest people to be are journalists, because they are the ones who have all of the attention. This time of year must be on their objectives or something, because the self-promoting and exposure-grabbing knows no bounds. If there's a meeting of [...]

Arsenal season review: a case for the defence

I'm going to resist the urge to vent towards the pathetic nature of the FA's charge of Jack Wilshere, for getting closer to the fans by singing songs, or the over sanitisation of modern day football and footballers as a result. Instead, I'm going to plough on with my thoughts on how this season's defence [...]
