Maybe Arteta isn’t as ‘high risk’ – here’s why…

It all seems to be drawing towards the inevitable conclusion that Mr Perfect Hair himself is going to be our next boss and what I'm listening to and reading about seems to be about how he's not as 'Mr Nice' as everyone keeps portraying. It does seem funny that all of this noise is coming [...]

Ivan Gazidis is betting his cajones on this appointment

Happy Friday, the first of the post-Wenger reign, and yesterday some footage emerged from Le Olde Boss from his usual media mouthpiece BeIn sports about who might succeed him and he had his say on Arteta as the likely candidate. I've watched this interview a couple of times now and when you see what he's [...]

Manager options dwindle, but at least the priorities are simple

By |2018-05-16T08:01:18+01:00May 16th, 2018|Arsenal FC, Defence, gooners, Gunners, Ownership and the board|0 Comments

The Arteta rumours appear to be hotting up. More and more media sources are reporting it and I think more and more of us are accepting that it's likely to happen. By and large I think most of us will accept it, get behind Micky and pray he gets off to a good start, but [...]

Be cool on manager search, Gooners

So we're into day two of the post-Wenger era and unsurprisingly it looks like some people are losing their sh*t. It's unsurprising because today's modern footballing community of fans want everything instantly. New signings, new managers, trophies, new kits, news in general. Everything has to be right this second and if it isn't then there's [...]

Say ‘eff you’ to this season with a win, Arsenal

By |2018-05-13T09:15:02+01:00May 13th, 2018|Arsenal FC, Arsene Wenger, gooners, Gunners, Match Preview, premier league|0 Comments

So here we are folks. A historic day. The Arsenal and Arsène Wenger united and together for the very last time. It still hasn't properly sunk in that he won't be around after today but I suspect once we see all the tributes pour in, the media fawning and the Match of the Day crew [...]

Lots of ‘lasts’ for Wenger

By |2018-05-11T08:02:00+01:00May 11th, 2018|Arsenal FC, Arsene Wenger, gooners, Gunners, History, premier league, press conference|0 Comments

Happy Friday y'all. A Friday in which we've now had time to digest the nuggets from Arsène's press conference and see him pull out yet more of those gems of quotes that he's done over the years. Of course the journos lapped it up. Talk of saying goodbye to trees, having early press conferences just [...]

A meaningless loss still hurts

I don't really know what more can be said about Arsenal away this season that hasn't already been spoken about time and time again this season and quite frankly, from a footballing perspective, next Monday and the end of this horrific campaign can well and truly get in the bin. I could talk about the [...]

Performance of individuals above result tonight

By |2018-05-09T08:02:02+01:00May 9th, 2018|Arsenal FC, Arsene Wenger, Defence, gooners, Gunners, Match Preview, premier league|0 Comments

This feels like a strange ol' match day, doesn't it? It's barely registering on my internal fear-o-meter if I'm honest with you. That's largely because of the fact that unlike The Grand Old Duke of York and his 10,000 men, we can't go up or down the hill. We're just stuck in sixth. The worst [...]

Will there be a psychological issue of not winning away carried into next season?

By |2018-05-08T07:47:58+01:00May 8th, 2018|Arsenal FC, Arsene Wenger, gooners, Gunners, Match Preview, premier league, press conference|0 Comments

With the final home game now past, the nice farewells and the thumping of Burnley behind us, there's little left in the season but to fulfil obligations by way of the remaining two fixtures, before Arsène and Arsenal go their separate ways. It'll feel a bit weird doing a match preview tomorrow if I'm honest, [...]
