Arsenal transfer apathy as a Maverick Piano Man drops in

Arsenal formally announced their first signing of the January transfer window and, as we should really come to expect, it was a low-key 'one for the future' that was snapped in an Arsenal shirt. So who have we got? A Konstant Maverick Piano-man by the sound of it, from PAS Gianna, which proves that not [...]

Defensive shambles, midfield absent, Arsenal reboot please

Watching Arsenal as a neutral must be great fun. A bit like Liverpool. Goals, but quite frankly, shambolic defenders and you have yourself a recipe for enjoyment from an armchair and a beer and not a lot else. Unfortunately for me, and I suspect you if you're reading this, the emotional investment in Arsenal isn't [...]

Chelsea will target our left and hit on the break

I can't say that I'm particularly confident about tonight. An Arsenal team that looks like its struggling for form and confidence at time, with the added pressure of that most usual of things - a long old injury list - up against an efficient Chelski team who have been grinding out victories and have been [...]

Are Arsenal two poor Christmas performances away from experimenting?

Happy Christmas Eve to those of you that are celebrating it today. Hopefully it is a good one for you and you can make merry with whomever you wish. Personally, it's a delightful time of the year to spend with family and after such a disappointing display by the players on Friday evening, it's a [...]

Arsenal show their clear fragilities – and it’s pathetic

Hello there you gooner, you. You alright? How you holding up after last night? I'll level with you - in writing this on the Friday night sitting on the tube making my way back to Uxbridge; I have an early morning drive up to Northumberland and do the chance of writing a post match blog [...]

Arsenal have lessons to learn to beat Liverpool

This is going to be hard tonight. Make no mistake about it. People can talk about Liverpool's frailties, about how Klopp doesn't seem to know how to set up a decent Liverpool defence, but this will test our Arsenal team significantly tonight. Defensively. Liverpool have a glut of players in form and plenty who know [...]

A United chuckle, Liverpool panic and Rosicky appreciation blog

United lost yesterday and we all got to engage in a bit of schadenfreude at their expense, until it became clear that City have a nice and easy tie against Bristol City to pick up probably at least one of the minimum two trophies they should win this season, at which point it became less [...]

Welbeckian finish sees us get a semi

When at halftime you're handed a Carlsberg (this is becoming a habit Andrew) and you look up at the statistics, which tell you that you're opponent hasn't even mustered an effort, corner, as well as making just three fouls, you kind of get the feeling that the game isn't quite going to finish all blood [...]

Hopefully a happy distraction against the hammers tonight

Howdy Gooners. It's that time of the week again - the match day without any pressure in the midweek! Love it. I love the feeling of going to a game where you don't want to chew all of your nails off. I love not spending the day being nervous. I love not having that feeling [...]
