Discipline, organisation and positives: Arsenal vs Chelski

Well how about that for a turn up for the books?  Away from home. To Chelski. Game management.  A modern day Arsène Wenger team performance. Sure, it wasn't the victory we craved but hey, there was enough in that 0-0 at Stamford Bridge to suggest that actually when their heads are screwed on, this Arsenal [...]

Press all over the pitch against Chelski, Arsenal

Welcome to the worst day of the season: the Annual Defeat to Chelski-a-thon, in which we all think that surely probability will eventually work in our favour and we might actually get a win, but then we realise that the same fate will befall us that has befallen us many times before. It's safe to [...]

No Mesut this weekend?

Morning folks, hope y'all are alreet? This Thursday football, delayed kick off malarky is havoc on the ability to write content you know. Yesterday I was cream-crackered and today as I chow down on my honey and peanut crunch cereal, I have no press conference words from Wenger to have a look at and work [...]

A disjointed Arsenal victory against Cologne

By |2017-09-15T08:16:31+01:00September 15th, 2017|Arsenal FC, Attack, Defence, Europa League, gooners, Gunners, Match Review, Tactics|1 Comment

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, [...]

A development squad and something different in Europe for Arsenal

Arsène's press conference today will be interesting, not least because despite strongly hinting at rotation for this European competition we find ourselves in this season, we still don't categorically know just how much rotation the manager intends on tomorrow evening against Cologne.  Is he going to go the whole hog and switch the entire team [...]

Chubby Sanchez, defensive Özil and prolific Welbeck

I decided to take yesterday off from blogging, on account of a half marathon on Sunday, finished off by a booze evening thereafter. Shall we say that I was a little 'groggy' the next morning so I fancied a lie in. Of course from an Arsenal perspective little happened, unless you count the stories of [...]

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 [...]

Adams has 2 years minimum to wait; transfer window success

So much to get through today, that I'm not even sure the trip from Uxbridge to Moorgate will be enough time to see me include everything, such is the case after an interlull.  Unlike a tactically drip-fed Arsène Wenger beIN interview, we don't get dribs and drabs, just the whole shabang. Let's start with dear [...]

Arsenal’s planning has caused inflation issues

I'm not sure if Arsène Wenger's interview with BeIn Sports is one that was taken a while ago and now being released in snippets, but he's had some more things to say about the summer, transfer windows and such like. I think I personally am running out of steam to listen to his spin if [...]
