Morning all. Arsenal fans can leave the ‘Wenger Out’ banners at home according to Mark Lawrenson on the BBC website as he expects us to win this evening, so clearly he’s another man who really can’t grasp why so many of us want the Frenchman to depart this summer. It’s not about today’s result or […]

Morning all. Cast your mind back, back to the spring/summer of 2013, what did the Arsenal squad really need at that time? A midfielder, defender or a striker? Our attack consisted of Giroud, Podolski, Walcott, Sanogo and Miyaichi, so it isn’t much of a stretch to think that we probably needed an upgrade in that […]
Morning all. Bearing in mind we hadn’t beaten Southampton in the Premier League away from home since 2003, I really didn’t expect us to get much from last nights game. A draw at best I thought but I was wrong. Having watched only the highlights, it didn’t appear to be the best Arsenal have played […]
Morning all. Here we are again then, just four days after battering Man Utd at The Emirates, off we go to St Marys to face Southampton. The South coast side haven’t been kind to us in the past, certainly not a couple of seasons ago when we travelled there on New Years Day 2015. Worse […]
Morning all. What a dreadful start to the morning for me. I thought it was Wednesday, I did a match preview only for Andrew to remind me, it’s Tuesday! I’ve had to write something else since. Forgive me, it’s rushed. Chelsea hammered Boro last night to send the Northern side crashing down to the Championship. […]
Morning all. Arsene Wenger must regret not playing Rob Holding last weekend against the neighbours as part from a dodgy back pass, his performance was pretty much flawless. Aaron Ramsey was back to somewhere near his best which earned him a man of the match award and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain just gets better and better at […]
Morning all. It’s fair to say that in recent years, the Arsenal team haven’t really clicked together on on a regular basis. There’s been the odd few occasions of course with City away last season or the one before, Chelsea at home early this season but the one which sticks with me is the way […]
Morning all. Arsene Wenger: Of course. The problem before [the north London derby] was that the clarity was if we won all our games, we had a good chance of being in the top four. Now, even winning the games doesn’t guarantee us that]. It’s not in our hands. That’s all we have to achieve. […]
Morning all. That good old statement which is often written when anyone defends Arsene Wenger. A manager who so often in the last ten years has been more than ten points off the eventual league champions. A manager who no matter who we face in the last sixteen of the Champions League, he can’t beat […]
Morning all. The contract saga surrounding Arsene Wenger rumbles on, as it does for a few of our players. Contract talks are on hold until the summer for the likes of Ozil, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Sanchez and Wilshere but Olivier Giroud won’t need to worry as rather oddly, he’s already tied down until a summer far away. […]
Morning all. This might seem an odd question to ask but I think it’s important. 1. ST holders, will you renew for vast amounts of money? 2. Away supporters, will you travel the country wide to support the team? 3. Those is the posh seats/boxes, are Arsenal still worth your money? 4. Some of […]
Morning all. I started to write about yesterdays match but then I deleted what I’d written as what’s the point? We’ve been here before so many times, it’s not worth repeating myself yet again. Yesterday was a chance to prove our victory over Man City was no fluke but as we all probably knew, it […]
