Lucas Torreira the Swiss Army knife

Quite obviously to anybody who has witness his rise to prominence in the last six to eight weeks, it comes as no surprise that Lucas Torreira won the November player of the month award at Arsenal, having picked up man-of-the-match displays in what feels like most of his starts this season at this stage. Based [...]

A patched up Arsenal must ‘get by’

Howdy all, hope you are well on this Tuesday. A Tuesday in which hopefully Barcelona knock out the Totts and so we really can have a chuckle at the advertising they did about Champions League football. But anyway, that's them and they're not worthy of much airtime. Today in minded of the words that Bernd [...]

Koscielny gives Emery tactical options

The best news of yesterday has to be the return of Koscielny to the football pitch after he played for the Under-23s last night as they played Derby. It was a hammering for the team but the fact he's (unless we're told differently) come out of the game unscathed will be a big boost for [...]

Keep Özil and Koscielny for the ones that really love them

Sooooo little to talk about in the Arsenal world right now. When headline news is the existing Arsenal ladies manager signing a new contract extension, plus Arsène Wenger saying how it wasn't good news for Germany to lose Mesut Özil (well, duh...), you know it's been a slow news week. The Özil situation isn't one [...]

Koscielny return a boost, but it’s Torreira we want to see this weekend

Mother Nature has seen fit to reward my ten days of sunshine in Portugal with typically drab weather this morning. But as I sit here on the Met Line waiting patiently for my People's Chariot to disappear into the grey smog of London, I am at least thankful that my holiday coincided with one of [...]

Performance of individuals above result tonight

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 [...]

Koscielny’s injury brings to light the massive summer rebuild task of Arsenal’s defence

By |2018-05-05T08:15:13+01:00May 5th, 2018|Arsenal FC|0 Comments

What absolutely tragic news for poor old Laurent Koscielny. Yesterday Didier Deschamps confirmed that our number one centre half would miss the World Cup and when you consider his age profile, as well as the problems he's had with his achilles in recent years, this is a crushing blow for one of our most consistent performers [...]

Brighton defeat: Somebody end this. Now.

When The Management walked into the lounge yesterday at around 4pm and asked "how did they get on?" In reference to Arsenal's dismal 2-1 defeat away to Brighton, I think she was a little taken aback by my nonchalant "they lost. Meh. Do you fancy watching Blade Runner?" response. Her response pretty much summed it [...]
