Team structure over expendable star men like Alexis

By |2017-09-27T07:26:15+01:00September 27th, 2017|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Attack, History, premier league|0 Comments

I wanted to broach a topic today that I sort of touched upon yesterday, relating to both Özil and Alexis and of course, there inevitable departures in either January or more likely May next year.  I think the first of the contract rebels of the modern era was Flamini. I'm sure others will put me [...]

Possession with a purpose: what’s needed for Arsenal tonight 

By |2017-09-25T07:37:10+01:00September 25th, 2017|Arsenal FC, Attack, gooners, Gunners, Match Preview, premier league|0 Comments

After a weekend in which every other Premier League team got their chance to showcase what they've got in their side, its us and West Brom tonight who face off against each other, in a fixture in which few will surely want in terms of timings.  Let's face it - Monday night football is fun [...]

Playing catch up for Arsenal; Iwobi’s curve

By |2017-09-24T10:15:40+01:00September 24th, 2017|Arsenal FC, Arsene Wenger, contracts, gooners, Gunners, premier league|0 Comments

Howdy folks. Whatcha been up to this weekend? You certainly haven't been filling it with Arsenal delight because we're the Monday night crew which, whilst cool because it starts your working week off with some football, is also a little ducky because it means you have to sit through every other team.  And what we [...]

No Mai Tai’s for Theo; Jack needs his body to hold together

Not content with a lie in after Thursday night's squad rotation game against Doncaster, Arsène was back in to London Colney yesterday to give his pre-match presser to those bleary-eyed hacks who had travelled in following their deadlines for copy the night before. First and foremost came the team news and it's a good job [...]

Professional performance and plenty of rotation, please, Arsenal

By |2017-09-20T07:01:42+01:00September 20th, 2017|Arsenal FC, League Cup, Match Preview|0 Comments

It's the super-awesome-mega-important-one-you-definitely-want-to-win cup tonight! You know the one I mean. They named it after a Thai goat or something. The one where the draw is done in the middle of the Himalayas so that the Asian fans don't have to get up so early, because that's a really important draw for them to see, [...]

Press all over the pitch against Chelski, Arsenal

By |2019-06-21T20:54:02+01:00September 17th, 2017|Arsenal FC, Attack, Defence, gooners, Gunners, Match Preview, premier league, Tactics|1 Comment

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

By |2017-09-13T06:59:16+01:00September 13th, 2017|Arsenal FC, Attack, Defence, Europa League, gooners, Gunners, midfield, press conference|0 Comments

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 [...]
