Moaning y'all and welcome to Sunday match day, a day in which we once again travel away to a tough ground to try to pick up three points against an in form team, in the shape of Burnley. This'll be a tough one today. Burnley are an established Premier League side under Dyche but more [...]

The nerves of the NLD – how can any fan enjoy this?

I'm sat here at my Macbook staring blankly at white space. It's North London Derby day and I've got that very familiar feeling that comes at least twice a season minimum. We play them. That lot down the road. The noisy neighbours. The chirpiest of chirpy fans. The ones that we've always said live in our [...]

Solid, compact, counter – Arsenal’s gameplan against Man City

By |2017-11-04T08:57:13+00:00November 5th, 2017|Arsenal FC, Defence, Match Preview, premier league, Tactics|0 Comments

Morning all, hope you're all feeling rather fantastic this morning? Or are you like me and not really looking forward to the prospect of playing the supposed 'champions elect' on their own turf this afternoon? Well actually, I'm more concerned with getting some pig inside of me, because i had a bit of an evening [...]

Congested midfield means Arsenal must exploit width against Everton

Today feels like a practically impossible game to predict. I mean in terms of form for both teams it’s pretty patchy, if you’re being kind regarding Everton in general, but also if you’re talking about us away from home. If you’re a gambler and you’re looking at this game you’re probably keeping your money in [...]

Boring Arsenal fold at Watford

As soon as the last gasp winner was thrashed home by Tom Cleverly to give Watford their first win at home against us in donkeys years, I switched off the TV, went in to the kitchen and finished making food. I then had a thoroughly enjoyable evening where football wasn't the topic of conversation for [...]

Xhaka with space could be the difference against Watford

I don't really know what to make of tonight's game. There's part of me that looks at the form we were in before the international break and think that yes, we're on a good run and we should beat Watford, but even though that is the case there are a couple of nagging doubts I [...]

Are this Arsenal team fighting for the manager? Bournemouth preview

It feels like a lot has happened since the last matchday. Maybe it's just me but it feels like Arsenal have gone through a lot and here we are at the other side and today, it is time the players delivered, because anything else but a win would feel like we're really in trouble. We've [...]

Mike Dean goes extreme on Arsenal; no surprises on UEFA squad

Last night I dreamt that Mike Dean gave Granit Xhaka a second yellow card this weekend. That in itself isn't so surprising, but when you consider that it was for a foul throw and that in his infinite wisdom Mike had decided that he'd had enough of foul throws, it seemed a little harsh. Especially [...]
