SIX injuries after international break? Flamini whining & Szczesny doesn't like the bench….

Morning all. So the injury curse has struck again. Theo Walcott fell victim of a nasty tackle last night, although he carried on after receiving treatment, he limped off before the end. Why he was allowed to carry on in the first place beggars belief! Jack Wilshere was also substituted in the second half but […]

What's Mertesacker been up to? Transfer window opens again today…

Morning all. How boring is the football world when the internationals take place? Is it just me, or does everyone dread these breaks and really have little interest in watching the international game? Not even England, my own country and a side which includes our own Theo and Jack interest me, in fact all I look […]

Arsenal nab award. Another free signing? In Sickness and in Health, that's football…

Morning all. So Mesut Ozil say’s he would have signed for us for free, he was that convinced he was making the right move. Bet Arsene Wenger was gutted to hear that. One free agent we are being linked to is Romania’s Ciprian Marcia – he’s free because Shalke either didn’t offer him a new […]

Arsene announcement imminent? Freebie knows it's coming & We can win the Premier League…

Morning all. The Sun newspaper report that talks are taking place between Arsene Wenger and Arsenal FC over a new contract reported to be worth £15 million. Talk about quoting the bleedin obvious eh, those talks have been going on for months, both Wenger and Gazidis confirmed that ages ago. However, I strongly suspect that […]

Wenger set for Germany move & We don't get a break unless we get knocked out of the CO Cup.. ..

Morning all. For the first time in many years – I have not really taken too much interest in the upcoming fixtures, other than of course to see when we faced the neighbours for the first time. Maybe that was partly down to having an average time in the transfer window and I feared for […]

Top Top Striker in January! Bendtner ready to shine &100 years ago today we kicked off at Highbury…..

Morning all. The ‘lack of signing a striker’ debate goes on, I suspect it will for a while and should Giroud suffer any kind of injury, it will go up a notch. We can only hope that scenario doesn’t play out. New signing Yaya Sanogo must be feeling a bit cheesed off, he’s already had […]

Are you starting to believe in Arsene Wenger again? Ozil better than Cookeen…..

Morning all. Remember the line from the cooking advert? “Give em a lift,…ahah, with Cookeen” Well it seems that signing Mesut Ozil has not only raised the hearts of all Arsenal fans, the players are thrilled too. Theo: “He is a great addition and I am personally looking forward to playing with him. I think […]

Better than Bergkamp? Records smashed for Ozil. Viviano signed up too, but is it enough?

Morning all. What a drag yesterday was. The night before, the Mesut Ozil to Arsenal rumours started to do the rounds not long after Bale had officially joined Real Madrid. That story gather pace as the day progressed and then finally, Sky Sports flicked over to their reporter in Germany and he confirmed the player was […]

Wenger goes on £80 million signing spree! Performance of the season, maybe the last few seasons…..

Morning all. Why did I fear yesterdays NLD, it really was a piece of cake wasn’t it….. Apart from a deflected shot which clipped Koscielny in the first half and a desperate last ten mins of basically playing hoof ball into our box to try and grab an equilizer did they really cause us many […]
