And so here we are my friends. Potentially the last of two 'big games' that Arsène Wenger May face as Arsenal manager. The league is done. It's a procession towards the final stages of his tenure because we have nothing left to play for domestically. It all boils down to Atletico Madrid home and away. [...]
Eugh, so now we have to deal with the very real probability that Liverpool will be playing either Real Madrid or Bayern Munich in the final of the Champions League, after they smashed Roma at Anfield. And this is my problem with those people who were delighted to see Barca get knocked out to Roma, [...]
Last night I went on the Gooner Ramble and we talked Arsène and Arsenal and life after him, but on the Podcast I only briefly started talking about the type of manager I would like to see us get in. I've been asked that by quite a few people and when I give my response [...]
Some post press conference thoughts on the empty stadiums, subsidised tickets, and player injuries ahead of Arsenal v West Ham
As Bjork so famously once said: It's oh so quiet...it's oh so still... There's nowt on out to shout about that's for sure.

How many points to be assured of safety? How many points to get in to the playoff places? How close are we to the Europa League spots? What [...]

People have stopped talking to me about Arsenal specifically at [...]
Arsenal fail to pick up another point in an away game in 2018. It’s getting boring now.
Match preview ahead of Arsenal’s trip to Newcastle in the Premier League, April 2018, in which I don’t feel massively nervous for a change. Which is nice.
Well we now know what we have to overcome in the semi final of the Europa League if we want to win it and be playing Champions League football next season. I'm not going to lie to you and tell you I'm happy about the draw. Since the 4-1 win against CSKA I've been speaking [...]
