Sven and Ivan share an iPod, whilst Alexis’ exit means the team must flourish

It's the start of a new working week for me, but by the looks of things Ivan and Sven Mislintat got theirs going a day early, having been snapped by Bild in Germany picking up some luggage from a car from what was supposed to be Aubameyang's silver ride; I'm not sure whether it's an [...]

The majesty of Özil putting Palace to the sword

If you're going to describe the perfect start to a football match then you'd pretty much just re-run the opening 30 minutes of yesterday's win against Crystal Palace. It was goals, goals, goals. And I loved it. The nerves were there for all to see pre match and as I sunk a few pints round [...]

Palace preview: High tempo, slick passing and one final Alexis game?

Happy match day goners. But will it be come 5pm? Will we have something to smile about or will it be more exasperation caused by yet another display in which the selected XI in red shirts toil over their goalscoring attempts as Crystal Palace aim to be tough to break down and hit us quick [...]

Bournemouth review: Pull the trigger somebody. Anybody.

What more can I say this morning that I haven't already said about this Arsenal team? How many times can I talk about the same frailties, the same mistakes, the same lack of ideas, the same lack of drive? There is literally no other way to try to spin a story out of this repetitive [...]

Bournemouth preview: this will be a grind

Morning folks - everyone feeling good? Everyone excited for another match day? Or, are you like me, which is that every time a match day comes around you get that dragging sensation in your stomach? It's the one where you can't quite work out whether you feel a bit sick, or you're hungry, or you [...]

Alexis’ departure could be good for Lacazette

So where else do we start this morning than yesterday's press conference in which Arsène seemed to all but admit that Alexis is off this January, but only if a replacement can be found and I must admit, at least it's all out there and we know what is going to happen in the next [...]

Riding luck at times, but we’ll all take that, against Chelski

By |2018-01-11T07:44:52+00:00January 11th, 2018|Arsenal FC, Attack, Defence, gooners, Gunners, Match Review, Tactics|0 Comments

Ive got to be honest and say that when the teams were announced yesterday, I did indeed fear the worst, given the week that we've had. Iwobi punished for his breaking of club rules last week by getting a start against Chelski in a semi final, no Özil, Alexis on the bench, injuries racking up. [...]

Play our best front line against Chelsea, Arsène

Match day again and it's Chelski away in the League Cup and having seen Bristol go one up against City last night it made me realise that anything is possible, including Arsenal actually beating them on their own turf this evening, although I also acknowledge that City did ultimately win it in the end. And [...]

The unknown nature of Arsenal’s line up today against Forest

Happy FA Cup Sunday boys and girls. Hope you are having a good one and preparing yourself mentally for the test that is Nottingham Forest this afternoon at 4pm. For those of us in England not going to the game we have the added stress of having to deal with the hopeless commentary that is [...]
