Arsenal’s rampant new attacking era? Everton match review

I thoroughly enjoyed yesterday's match from the first minute to the last. I generally hate evening kick offs on a Saturday because they pretty much ruin any chance of going out in the evening for me given travel home, etc, but if we played like that every week then i'd happily accept any time to [...]

Things killing the enjoyment of football; Everton match preview

I thought Arsene's presser was more interesting than a lot of his pressers that he's done in the recent past. He brought quite a few interesting topics of conversation that it's really hard to disagree with so before I go into today's match preview I think I want to delve into a couple of things [...]

Reconciling Arsenal results with transfers

Happy Friday to you and unto your kin. I hope you are well. I am still wrestling with my emotions from an Arsenal front if I'm honest. That's because I'm trying to reconcile the rapidly deteriorating football quality with the injection-in-arm adrenaline boost of signing one of the world's strikers, followed by the confirmation on [...]

The Great Arsenal Cull of 2018

The last Arsenal 'shake up' occurred after the abomination of a defeat to United back in 2011, when Arsène finally admitted in August that the team needed a heck of an overhaul to even get close to competing for top four that he brought in Big Per, Arteta, Benayoun and Andre Santos as the window [...]

Swansea away: we used to be beautifully flawed, now we’re just flawed

I was going to start today by saying something like "where do I even start?" but this morning after yet another pathetic Arsenal display - the type of away display performance we've seen all season from this ailing team - I think I'll just throw up some of the utterly embarrassing stats that I've seen [...]

Swansea preview: desperate for an early goal

The build up to tonight's league encounter with Swansea may be dominated by a certain player coming in from Dortmund and a certain handsome Arsenal player being an option for that most horrid of clubs Chelski, but I'm preferring to focus on the reason we are here today, which is the stuff that's played on [...]

The waiting game: Aubameyang

Sometimes football can be as predictable as TV soap operas can't it? Particularly football's equivalent of the gutter trash storylines, which are usually the most sleazy in January and the summer months. So in what is this winters latest plot we saw the development late last night that most of us must have expected following [...]

Clever Dortmund put it all on Arsenal and Ivan

I suspected there might be a little bit of noise one way or the other yesterday - with regards to the Aubameyang situation - especially as Dortmund we're playing Freiburg. The first bit of noise came from the team selection and with Auba in from the start it caused some to go into overdrive panic [...]

The new League Cup approach – will it work tonight?

I find tonights League Cup encounter with Chelski an intriguing one. A competition that Arsène has historically been such an advocate of blooding young players in, even to the extent of getting to a final and prioritising development over giving the club the best possibility of a trophy, has this season seen a change of [...]
