Morning all. It’s taken a while but yesterday it finally arrived. A top performance all round against Everton, it really was. From Ospina through the team to Welbeck who led the line, every single player performed. Arsenal were quick with their passing and didn’t give the Everton players time on the ball forcing mistakes from the […]

Morning all. We’ve seen this team under perform, we’ve seen the manager sit back and do little about it and putting the two together has seen the worst string of results in years. Having been dumped out of both the Champions League and FA Cup and sitting too many points off of the top, one could […]
Morning all. 3-1 to Barca and we’re out of the Champions League again. No great surprise having conceded two away goal in the first leg. But what made the result so frustrating is that Arsenal had a few really good chances to not only go ahead in the game but to cause an upset but yet again, […]
Morning all. In theory tonight could be the managers last Champions League match as Arsenal manager regardless of what happens between now and the beginning of next season. Barcelona won’t surrender a two goal lead in front of their own fans and even if they were fragile in the defensive department, the chance of Arsenal […]
Morning all. It’s pretty much impossible to be positive these days. Arsenal fans are divided in their opinion over the managers position, fighting broke out after the game on Sunday and now players are blaming each other for the dreadful results on the pitch. Well, to be more precise, Mertesacker has suggested that the players […]
Morning all. Just a few days ago Stan Kroenke said something along the lines of ‘if you want to win Championships, then you’d never get involved’. Well I wish he’d never got involved with Arsenal Football Club because ever since he became the majority shareholder, Arsenal have gone from bad to worse. I’m not knocking […]
Morning all. Apparently Arsenal have made a £10 million bid for Umar Sadiq, a 19 year old 6′ 6″ Nigerian striker who is on loan at Roma from parent club Spezia Calcio. No, I’ve never heard of that club either. It’s in Italy’s Serie B league. He must be decent though for Roma to snap him up….. […]
Morning all. If by some chance we manage to beat Watford tomorrow, there won’t be a re-run of last season’s semi-final as Reading were knocked out last night by Crystal Palace. Having moaned after Benteke dropped with ease in the penalty area last weekend to assure Liverpool beat Palace, Pardew had to watch one of […]
Morning all. Not sure what happened yesterday but please, let’s not start fighting amongst ourselves or flinging mud at each other just because we don’t agree. As for the AKB name calling, jeeze, that’s so old now and to be honest, quite boring. The ‘thanks for the memories’ banner – is it such a big […]
Morning all. That first half was worse than watching paint dry. A mistake made by Hull’s Myler allowed Olivier Giroud in to finally break his goal drought just before half-time. The second half was marginally better but perhaps that’s because three further goals came along before the final whistle blew. Ollie ended with two as […]
Morning all. Sorry for my absence which I promise had nothing to do with Arsenal or the manager. Belated Happy Birthday to Ray Parlour who turned 43 years old yesterday. I doubt any of us will ever forget the ‘It’s only Ray Parlour’ comment by Tim Lovejoy just before the Englishman unleashed a super shot […]
Morning all. Alexis Sanchez has said that this current side lacks ‘hunger’ in their challenge for the Premier League title which is all a bit odd really. ‘If we go out on to the pitch with hunger to become champions, to win the Premier League or the Champions League, we can achieve it,’ the Chilean […]
