Time to phase out Ramsey from Arsenal

I like Aaron Ramsey. I like his energy, the spaces he occupies, the goals he has scored and I think a fully fit Ramsey is a massive asset to the team. So whilst my title is provocative in a sense, it is 100% how I feel and is not indicative of me being a 'Ramsey [...]

League Cup gives chances for some, but Brentford are no mugs

Match day for The Arsenal unfortunately - not from my perspective because we haven't played and won our League Cup game as it hasn't been played yet - can't really be laced with lashings of schadenfreude in relation to Derby's win at Old Trafford. If we can overcome Brentford tonight then by all means, I'll [...]

Tuesday is upon us friends and what I always like a about Tuesday after a Sunday game, is that it's usually when all of the stats boffins come out with their analysis on matches, firing xG charts into the great beyond of the internet and generally telling us why the game should, or shouldn't, have [...]

Balance at Arsenal – players adapt or formation adapts?

Happy Saturday folks. It's one of many this season in which Arsenal aren't playing but yesterday Unai spoke to the official site about the game tomorrow and there's a word he said a few times that keeps ringing in my head as I compose some of my usual garbled thoughts this morning: Balance. Unai spoke [...]

Arsenal confuse and delight in equal measure – Vorskla

Well now, that was fun and once again, as The Management often says, The Arsenal did The Goals. Now I don't know about you, but I like that, regardless of the opposition. When I was a wee nipper or a grumpy teenager I used to get frustrated when Arsenal didn't do enough of The Goals, [...]

Nacho’s deal is pragmatic, Özil’s rest is welcome, but Gazidis isn’t

Morning you wonderful sexy bitches, you. Well, it is for me as I write this now, having flown out to New York for the weekend with my company for a bit of a jolly. So the next couple of days will probably be somewhat disjointed blogs, although I will be waking up at 9am to [...]

Morning folks. It's super-early O'Clock for me today, on account of an early finish and trip to Portugal for a bit of R'n'R today and as I sit here blurry-eyed thinking about Sunday's game and Emery's press conference that will happen at some time today, there are a few things spinning around in the old [...]

Laca will get his chance as Emery tinkers

It's funny how in football harmony can do quickly turn into discord. Just look at the situation at Old Trafford right now. A pretty stinging defeat to the horrible lot from the other part of north London and what do you know? Jose is at odds with everyone again. Having only recently signed a new [...]

Tactical opens from Emery is refreshing; Ozil situation is tiresome

Morning gooner. It's one of those rarest of things in the UK today - bank holiday - which means a bit of s lie in and a morning spent in me PJs watching the Unai Emery press conference again, as well as some more fall out from the victory against West Ham. I don't really [...]

Emery did his presser yesterday which of course is delicious for somebody who needs something to write about on a Friday morning commute, so I got one am hoping that he replicates this format for the rest of his Arsenal tenure, cos it dun'half 'elp with my #content. I like that he's open to talking [...]
