A disjointed Arsenal victory against Cologne

Before one delves in to the why's and wherefore's of yesterday's victory against Cologne, I suppose the most important thing to note is that Arsenal did indeed get the victory we needed, in the end. But by golly, wasn't it hard going for us, eh?  The night started off pretty grim before kick off anyway, [...]

More fun at The Emirates – because of the high press

I don't know about you folks, but I thorough;y enjoyed watching yesterday's game against Bournemouth, pretty much from start to finish. Don't get me wrong, I was nervous and much like the crowd and its hushed tones up until the second goal went in I was feeling like we could easily eff it all up, [...]

Are this Arsenal team fighting for the manager? Bournemouth preview

It feels like a lot has happened since the last matchday. Maybe it's just me but it feels like Arsenal have gone through a lot and here we are at the other side and today, it is time the players delivered, because anything else but a win would feel like we're really in trouble. We've [...]

Arsenal and Arsène are insulting us all

I can't hold back this morning. What happened yesterday at Anfield was nothing short of a disgrace. It was symptomatic of Arsenal football club under this tired and dated manager who mollycoddles and placates a collective of underperforming premadonnas who do not deserve to put on the Arsenal shirt. Yesterday was the culmination of a [...]

Anfield isn’t fun for Arsenal, today won’t be either, I suspect

Today's game against Liverpool isn't exactly one in which we go in to on good form, nor is it a place that we historically - 89 aside - enjoy going to, particularly in recent history. So personally I'm not too confident that we'll be coming away from Anfield with three points tucked safely under our [...]

Arsenal: Hope of victory but there is no harmony

I thought about blogging yesterday but given Arsène was doing his presser at 8.45am, I thought I'd hold off until today before I compiled some thoughts, so here I am trying to make sense of what he had to say when sitting in front of the assembled media. Firstly, having read and watched a lot [...]

Baffling selection decisions =Arsenal Groundhog Day at Stoke

So we're two games in to the new season and already the hope and sporations of a new season appear to be in the sh*thouse, after a performance that seemed vintage Arsenal 2011 - 2016. Once again it was Stoke, once again we fell apart defensively, once again there are questions about the manager's decisions, [...]

Can Arsenal do it on a balmy August evening in Stoke on a Saturday?

Match day two for The Arsenal and it's that usually most feared of trips to Stoke that we have to intend with later on this evening. I think I speak for everyone when I say that this is one of those games that you just don't look forward to. I think it's because there's always [...]

Gabriel out? Chambers out? Three at the back out?

Morning y'all.  Well with Arsène's presser yesterday we were treated to an update on player availability and thankfully, we appear to be having some centre halves returning, which is nice given we play three at the back and last weekend we decided to go with two left backs in the middle. Of course we all [...]

Friday games to break opening day hoodoo?

These Friday games, eh? It's like some sort of footballing jet lag with press conferences on a Wednesday, the match on a Friday after a long gruelling week of work and the decisions on whether to drink in the City or closer to The Emirates, all conspiring to make this the most unusual of season [...]
