Morning all. Make no mistake, I’m no Arsene Wenger supporter and haven’t been for a long time, but isn’t it nice to see another manager making the headlines for a change, especially when that man is Mourinho. He and his boring football isn’t working and now he’s lost Lukaku and Ibra through injury. He’s strikerless […]

Morning all. James Tarkowski, English, Premier League, 6’ 3” and a no nonsense centre back Burnley. 25 years old so the perfect age but annoyingly, he’s a Utd fan. Shane Duffy, 6’ 4” central defender who plays for Brighton and Northern Ireland. After a nasty injury a few years ago followed by several loans, He […]
Morning all. “It was an excellent game, end to end, but you just cannot be convinced by Arsenal.” “At times, some of their passing and movement was mesmerising, just brilliant – but at the other end you see their vulnerabilities and frailties and why they are sitting sixth in the league. No, that’s not Arsene […]
Morning all. Well that’s the Christmas festivities over for another year. I know it’s only two days but mine shot by. Regardless, I had a lovely time with family as I hope you all did too. Next comes the New Year when it’s out with the old and in with the new. If only that […]
Morning all. I don’t know about anyone else but Christmas seems to have come around quickly this year. No sooner was summer over, it’s here. I don’t think the retail trade help much either, after all, they begin filling their shelves at the earliest stage possible. But for me, today isn’t about food, drink or […]
Morning all. It’ll be strange for our players and staff this Christmas as for once, they have the day off. No football for us on Boxing Day is unusual to say the least. Wouldn’t be nice to be able to write that they deserve their break, but I’m not sure they do. No doubt they’ll […]
Morning all. Panto time was certainly on shown at The Emirates last night and plenty of our players were the villains. For around fifty odd minutes we couldn’t pass a ball, keep the ball or stop Liverpool’s wave after wave of attacking football. Going behind was no shock, just conceding the two goals though was. […]
Morning all. “When you have such a long career as I have, you have some defeats unfortunately that hurt you for the rest of your life. I believe what is interesting in football is you always have a time to make up for it. “When you can put things right, do it. So let’s focus […]
Morning all. Tomáš Rosický Born on the 4th October 1980, this young man would go on to be one of his country’s finest midfield players. His club career began at Sparta Prague and from there he went Borussia Dortmund before joining Arsenal. He was nicknamed “the little Mozart” for his ability to “orchestrate” the midfield. […]
Morning all. Speculation about the contract of the man many people like to deride seems like something that will not go away in the nearest future. Many people are of the belief that he has overstayed his welcome, run out of steam, and should not be anywhere close to the touchline for the Gunners. But […]
Morning all. There are some fixtures this team under Arsene Wenger can be up for. Not many I know but when the big teams arrive at The Emirates we do seem to sometimes perform better. I know Utd battered us as far as the scoreline goes but for the majority of the game, we were […]
Morning all. One moment of magic from Mesut Ozil. Nothing fancy or flash, just a wonderful strike with his left foot. A strike which spared Arsene Wenger’s blushes. Aside from that and a few shots fired wide, there was little to be excited about from another uninspired Arsenal performance. This is Arsenal under a French […]
