I've awoken this morning to snow. It really is quite magical this time of year and London is white with it. In a way I'm glad we don't have a home game because getting to the Emirates on the Met Line today could be an absolute nightmare. But it's an away day and for many [...]

Arsenal need the all-important first goal against Burnley

Moaning y'all and welcome to Sunday match day, a day in which we once again travel away to a tough ground to try to pick up three points against an in form team, in the shape of Burnley. This'll be a tough one today. Burnley are an established Premier League side under Dyche but more [...]

The nerves of the NLD – how can any fan enjoy this?

I'm sat here at my Macbook staring blankly at white space. It's North London Derby day and I've got that very familiar feeling that comes at least twice a season minimum. We play them. That lot down the road. The noisy neighbours. The chirpiest of chirpy fans. The ones that we've always said live in our [...]

Interlull nothingness or NLD fear?

Ahh man, this feels like it’s a real dragger of an Interlull, and not just because there’s little going around by the way of Arsenal news. I tune out the transfer tittle-tattle when there’s still six weeks to go until the January window opens, and when it’s a window that doesn’t usually see big clubs [...]

Solid, compact, counter – Arsenal’s gameplan against Man City

By |2017-11-04T08:57:13+00:00November 5th, 2017|Arsenal FC, Defence, Match Preview, premier league, Tactics|0 Comments

Morning all, hope you're all feeling rather fantastic this morning? Or are you like me and not really looking forward to the prospect of playing the supposed 'champions elect' on their own turf this afternoon? Well actually, I'm more concerned with getting some pig inside of me, because i had a bit of an evening [...]

I’m loving Sead: Arsenal vs Swansea review

By |2017-10-29T08:45:25+00:00October 29th, 2017|Arsenal FC, Match Review, premier league|0 Comments

I hate trotting out footballing cliches but, as I made my way home with the old man yesterday from The Emirates, it was hard to describe yesterday's win against Swansea as anything other than the proverbial 'game of two halves'. The first was one of laboured, predictable passing that had the inevitable sucker-punch from pretty [...]

Finally, free-flowing football from Arsenal

By |2017-10-23T08:13:57+01:00October 23rd, 2017|Arsenal FC, Attack, Defence, gooners, Gunners, Match Review, premier league, Tactics|0 Comments

It’s a little difficult to say without having watched yesterday’s game in its entirety due to family commitments, but having watched a couple of highlights on yesterday’s 5-2 victory at Everton, I feel relatively confident in saying that it was the best performance of the season by the players up at Goodison.  In fact, given [...]

Congested midfield means Arsenal must exploit width against Everton

Today feels like a practically impossible game to predict. I mean in terms of form for both teams it’s pretty patchy, if you’re being kind regarding Everton in general, but also if you’re talking about us away from home. If you’re a gambler and you’re looking at this game you’re probably keeping your money in [...]
