Swansea preview: negate a high press and keep an eye out wide

Liverpool's draw with Chelski mathematically secured the top four for us yesterday, but on a day where QPR were supposed to be giving it the last hurrah by at least holding Momeychester City to a draw at he Etihad, I was expecting better than a 6-0 thrashing. For us, in terms of trying to get [...]

Blessed be St Tott with the gift of three points

Much like Easter, I do prefer it when St Totterigham's Day is bought forward in the calendar, as it enables us to enjoy it more I think. It was nice for the authorities to see fit to grant a national bank holiday in honour of the occasion. I spent my St Totteringham's Day in the [...]

Exploit the width against Hull's formation

Today the good lord Bergkamp could see fit to bless upon us the day of St Totteringham, in which we celebrate the mathematical certainty that Arsenal will finish above the other team in North London in the Premier League. Ideally a draw yesterday coupled with an Arsenal win would have made this weekend just about as good [...]

Arsène's happy, we're happy, Mesut's great (Bobby says so)

What a glorious day I have awoken to in my London suburb. The sun is shining, The Arsenal are riding the crest of a form-inspiring run, Arsène has the pick of the sweet shop with his selection choices ahead of our trip to Burnley.Even Koscienly might be back for the game. Laurent Koscienly who limped [...]

Emphatic Arsenal led by Özil

Well how do you even start after a game like yesterday? I mean wow, if ever you wanted an emphatic way to say 'chill Gooners, we got this', the present Arsenal team delivered yesterday. And them some. I've got to tell you, I was mighty impressed. I was mighty impressed because I thought yesterday's game would be [...]

horrendous scenes in Italy and Mesut's high midi-chlorian count

If you could have written a more horrible ending to an England match, would it have been far off from seeing a host of Totteringham players celebrating a goal from the nation with which you were born? That's what I and many other English-born Arsenal fans had to endure last night, as Andros 'The Saviour' [...]

Mother Nature hates FIFA

Meanwhile, over in Blighty...even Mother Nature is sad at the fact it's an international break. She's been up since about 5am crying and has soaked me through on my two minute walk to the tube station.You know how sugar is really bad for you and how you shouldn't eat anything other than natural sugars? Or [...]

Ramsey likes Coq, Mesut likes DJ Luck and MC Neat

Aaron Ramsey has a confession to make: he loves a bit of Coq behind him. Speaking to the official site, I think this was the second or third time that he has specifically referenced Francis Coquelin for singled out praise, talking about how much ground he covers and how many tackles he wins. It's no surprise [...]

Give Theo a go against an exposed Newcastle defence

Match day today and a 3pm kick off too. That's two weekend's in a row. The TV companies obviously have forgotten about Arsenal in the league. Good, hopefully we'll get more of that. Well, I say good, but I'm actually a little cheesed off about this fixture, because I normally go up north to see [...]

Smiling at the Özil click-baiters

You know how there are always divisions amongst fanbases on issues, right, and particularly among Arsenal fans? Well, today I fancy talking about Mesut Özil, who seems to be flavour of the month in terms of dividing people. But interestingly enough, it's not the Arsenal fanbase I'm looking at today, but the media. Because it's [...]
