Morning all. What a game that was. It had pretty much everything from a good penalty shout from Arsenal turned down, a dubious one given to Leicester and a few strong challenges passing by Martin Atkinson as usual. Two cracking goals in the second half, with one right at the death… An early foul by Danny […]

Morning all. When it comes to Arsene Wenger v Claudio Ranieri, the Frenchman often wins in the domestic challenge but back in 2004, it was the Italian who came out on top in the Champions League quarter-final when Wayne Bridge popped up late in the game to knock Arsenal out. That hurt didn’t it! That […]
Morning all. Arsene Wenger thinks the price charged by Arsenal for season tickets and tickets in general are fair. Well, by looking at the table above which has been pinched from The Daily Mail, perhaps his view is blinkered, and that’s being kind. We pay absolutely everything ourselves so we have to generate more revenue. It […]
Morning all. The mischief makers are out there again and now it’s the turn of Alexis to hit the headlines. Apparently, the lack of spending (which equates to ambition) since he’s been here is making him think about his Arsenal future. To be honest, it’s no more than some on here have thought about him […]
Morning all. Over the years, Arsene Wenger has disappointed fans with some of his player signings. Not always of course as looking back to the better days under his management, an awful lot of players were outstanding footballers. Too many to mention really but I think we all know who I mean… That’s not always […]
Morning all. So Leicester are Thierry’s team to win the league. They have the mental strength, the ability and above all, they know how to deal with the pressure. Such qualities should see them crowned champions…. His old club however, well they lack bottle, they can’t score goals and they can’t win the tough matches […]
Morning all. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has to be up there with one of the most frustrating Arsenal players right now. Scorer of our second goal and a very good one it was too, he just doesn’t do enough to help the team. He seldom tracks back, when he does is half-hearted and all too often he loses possession. […]
Morning all. A club close to relegation last season, employed a new manager in the summer and spent less than Wenger has done over the last two transfer windows to assemble a good squad. A squad which ripped Man City apart on their own turf! Leicester aren’t a big club, not when it comes to finances […]
Morning all. Tomas Rosicky, one of the most gifted midfielder’s Arsenal have had in recent years, looks to have played his last match for the club. He’s been ruled out for three months after playing on with an injury during last weekends match against Burnley. He wouldn’t come off as Arsene Wenger had used all […]
Morning all. The debate goes on about who’s to blame for all things bad at Arsenal. Well, it certainly does here. Arsene Wenger is deemed to be the most guilty, after all, he signs the players, he trains them, plays them and in his system. He’s also the one who fails to spend money on […]
Morning all. That was a poor two points dropped last night. Yet again we had chances, many chances to win the game but as so often of late, either a keeper denies us or the final shot/header is simply not good enough. Arsenal are on a rotten run and from top spot, we are back […]
Morning all. So the biggest news yesterday was the announcement by Man City. Pep Guardiola will be their new manager when the 2016/17 season kicks off. Yawn, most thought that would be the case anyway so no great surprise. At least now we know he’s not heading to Arsenal, not that that will please a […]
