City will want to exposure our full backs today

Victory today is the only option. A draw will only seem as though the team has further regressed from the target of Champions League football and personally, I suspect it will also mean we will have too much to do to take one of the four spots for next season. It doesn't even matter if [...]

Xhaka can be a fulcrum in this team

Happy Friday friends. Hope you are well? Let's talk about Xhaka, shall we? After all, he's been talking to the press in Germany, which has handily been transcribed by the good people over at Arseblog News. The article makes for quite interesting reading actually. I really like Xhaka. He comes across as open and honest, [...]

The ageing Arsenal boxer – it’s sad

I don't really know what to say. I don't think there's anything that I can say that would either soothe my own soul when it comes to Arsenal, or offer any words of consolation or positivity to you, because I have none for myself. Arsenal Football Club looks like it's on its knees at the [...]

Arsenal must counter Liverpool’s high press

This will be a really tough game today. Mark my words. Don't believe anything you read that suggests that Liverpool's woeful 2017 form will give us hope, because I certainly am not and I fully expect them to be more up for it, than ever before. I watched the Liverpool/Tottenham game at Anfield a couple [...]

Sell Alexis?

Following my blog yesterday about how Arsenal haven't really adopted the counter attack properly in years, I thought I'd offer a somewhat controversial opinion as a solution, which I've been thinking about following the stories emerging about Alexis wanting to head back to Spain. Firstly, why he'd want to go back to a country who [...]

Arsenal haven’t counter-punched for years

By |2017-05-19T19:51:09+01:00February 28th, 2017|Arsenal FC, Attack, gooners, Gunners, History, premier league, Tactics|0 Comments

On a WhatsApp Arsenal group I'm part of there was a discussion yesterday about whether Liverpool getting a tonking by Leicester - who hadn't scored in 2017 before yesterday - would be a good thing for Arsenal or not. Good question, and not one we'll know until we rock up at Anfield next Saturday evening. [...]

Ditch your hierarchies, Arsène

Do you know what's strange? In life, my family and particularly The Management, often comment about how easy going I am sometimes. I'm quite happy to let a lot of things - not everything, but a lot - just pass me by without too much stress. I'm quite positive about life in general.  Arsenal is [...]
