Auba’s contract length was wrong; why signing Willian doesn’t make sense

If Saturday’s results - including The Arsenal’s - were a positive day for us, then yesterday’s were the opposite, as Everton rolled over and let Chelski blow raspberries on their bellies, whilst Man City played the possession-based game of how to be toothless against A United side who had their number early on in the [...]

Players plus cash for Wilf won’t work

By |2019-07-02T09:15:32+01:00July 2nd, 2019|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, gooners, Gunners, Ownership and the board, pre season|0 Comments

So it seems that Wilf Zaha IS in fact the man who Arsenal are getting quite hot for at the moment and as news broke yesterday afternoon that the club had already made a £40million bid, the online chatter went crazy as you'd expect. The thing is, and this is a BIG thing for me, [...]

Arsenal aren’t bringing enjoyment any more

This last few days has been some of the longest times I've not blogged since I started this website up around ten years ago. I don't tend to do it too much when I'm on holiday, usually because I'm hanging and not waking up until after 10, but this time around there is no such [...]

Kannemann/Mustafi makes sense, but Laca should stay

Excuse me whilst I take a breath to sarcastically laugh at the UEFA statement in response to Arsenal's statement about the cup final in a week and a half's time. Hahahahahaha.....hahahaha....haha...ha....sigh... What an absolute joke that organisation are. "For UEFA, fans are a priority". No, they're really not. Perhaps that should have read slightly different: [...]

Stan and Ivan could have driven Arsenal into mediocrity

It's that time of the year again: David Ornstein's time. The BBC journalist's click through rate goes through the roof during transfer crazy season and it sounds like he's been wheeled out again, from some of the rumblings I've heard, not many of them good. I don't have any links because I think what he [...]

Much Edu about nothing?

So it appears as though we have Edu who might be joining us in the much publicised Technical Director role at Arsenal. Perhaps I'm a bit naive here but I thought he didn't want the job because he'd be too far from his family? If that's the case then heading over to Europe is hardly [...]

Suarez farce: should we be worried about the way the club is run?

By |2019-04-30T07:36:35+01:00April 30th, 2019|Arsenal FC, finances, Ownership and the board, Rant, Transfers, Unai Emery|2 Comments

So after four appearances, 67 minutes of football, little impression made and probably a fair chunk of wages spent, Denis Suarez makes his way back to Barcelona after confirming an injury that will keep him out for the rest of the season. It's pretty terrible news at the end of a nine day period in [...]

Özil and Emery: War’s a brewin’

Unai Emery is the man with the power to pick the team and so Özil has little else with which to strike back if he isn't playing. Which is why he - with inevitable backing and collaboration of his PR Team too - decided to post a not-so-subtle message last night on social media: When [...]

Ramsey exit confirmed. What next?

By |2019-02-12T08:59:36+00:00February 12th, 2019|Arsenal FC, contracts, gooners, Gunners, Rant|0 Comments

Morning guys and gals. Hope you're all well. As well as can be given that last night Ramsey's confirmation as a Juventus player in the summer was confirmed by Ornstein, then Ramsey himself, then Juventus, then the club. It marks yet another example of what I honestly deem negligence on behalf of the club that [...]

We all know where the problem lies in the Arsenal back room

So we've got about a week and a bit to go before the infernal January transfer window shuts and despite a few concerns and questions over whether we'd be active this month, it looks as though we're playing the usual Arsenal hardball and leaving everything to the last minute, even when it comes to loan [...]
