I tried to watch the Champions League last night, but soon got bored after the two favoured teams to go through pretty much made light work of their opponents, with Porto discovering that beating a Bayern team in the first leg only makes them angry. They should have taken a leaf from our book and [...]
So how about that then, and Arsenal/Liv....oh...Come on now, hands up who legitimately thought that Aston Villa would be the victor in the other cup semi final yesterday? Certainly not me and certainly not the English press. That guy you always see carving the name of the team on the trophy was already at 'pool' [...]
Well we don't half make life hard for ourselves, don't we? I mean this was a Reading team who were 18th in the Championship, with a season of inconsistent performances, but very little to play for other than this game and so I suppose this was always going to be a little bit more difficult [...]
If I was to try to to do the keyword tagging and search engine optmisation of the Arsenal team manifested in physical form today, the one word I would lace throughout any team talk or mindset or thoughts going through each players mind would be: concentration, non-complacency. These are the two things that we must [...]
It's nearly here folks, time is almost upon us and although it's not the FA Cup final but the seminar Wembley, I'm still mega excited. Imagine what I'll be like tomorrow when it actually comes around to kick off?We have already had the prologue from Arsène; possibly eager to cocoon the players in a hotel [...]
If ever you needed an example of how unfortunately, some Arsenal fans are more concerned with off the field matters than on, you only needed to see some of the ridiculous comments on social media yesterday after it was announced that Klopp would be leaving Dortmund at the end of the season.Rather than express surprise [...]
Today's game is certainly an interesting one. One the one hand you have an Arsenal team in a rich vein of form, coupled with a Burnley team in 19th position and having scored just 14 goals all season.But on the other hand you had an Arsenal team that have made a nasty little habit of [...]
Eurgh, midweek drinking (combinations of ale, red wine, Sailor Jerry and Port are not to be trifled with, fyi) accompanied by an early get up and train journey into the city for work, don't exactly make for the happiest Chris on this here earth, I can assure you. I've got that 'punched in the face' [...]
If you could have written a more horrible ending to an England match, would it have been far off from seeing a host of Totteringham players celebrating a goal from the nation with which you were born? That's what I and many other English-born Arsenal fans had to endure last night, as Andros 'The Saviour' [...]
Aaron Ramsey has a confession to make: he loves a bit of Coq behind him. Speaking to the official site, I think this was the second or third time that he has specifically referenced Francis Coquelin for singled out praise, talking about how much ground he covers and how many tackles he wins. It's no surprise [...]
