Arteta out for Sunday? Why did it have to be Wigan? Higuain is ours, if we cough up £22 million….

Morning all. Update on Arteta’s injury from Arsene Wenger: He is not alright, he pulled his calf so that could be a problem for Sunday. We don’t know, we have to wait for 24 hours. Fingers crossed he recovers. According to John Cross in The Daily Mirror, Gonzalo Higuain can be ours if we are prepared […]

Striker agrees Arsenal move! 4th spot hanging on by a thread……

Morning all, What a sorry state we are in. The penultimate game of the season and we are absolutely desperate for the three points on offer tonight. Three points which, IF, we manage to secure them, would take us to a final day of the season ‘shoot-out’  with the neighbours for that last Champions League […]

Wilshere off to Germany?? Would you swap 3 points tomorrow for an FA Cup Trophy??

Morning all, According to The Metro, new Bayern Munich manager Pep Guardiola is ready to make an audacious bid for Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere. The former Barcelona boss has reportedly identified the Gunners’ star as a key figure to lead the Champions League finalists to further glory over the next decade. I’ll leave that right there.. […]

Jovetic talks Juve, we scout £8 Million DM & Those were the days my friends….

And back then we thought they would never end….. We not only challenged the likes of Manchester United, we beat them! In a week that has seen the old Scot announce his retirement, let’s look back…. After 2004/05 we witnessed change. Then of course, we were, still are, no longer a threat to Fergies lot […]

A Right-Back and Rooney in the summer? It Has All Become Really Rather Boring.

Morning all, Kick off with the gossip.. According to the ever unreliable Daily Mail, we are set to test Borussia Dortmund’s resolve by making a bid for their 27 year old Polish right-back, Lukasz Piszczek. By all accounts, he’s pretty good, in fact he’s one of the ‘most impressive right-backs in the Bundesliga and is a […]

German keeper linked. Has Fabianski signed a new contract? Ramsey & Podolski pick up awards….

Morning all, Just in case anyone missed the news yesterday, Fergie is retiring at the end of the season. Ding Dong eh!! More important is all things Arsenal. Two awards have been announced – the first goes to Aaron Ramsey, he’s been voted EA Sports Player of the Month for April. I’m not surprised either, since […]

English Signing Complete? Shock exit ticks the right box & Firing up the neighbours

Morning all, See, this is what happens when our young players don’t think before they speak! All Szczesny has done is fire up AVB who has now retaliated after our young Pole decided to take a swipe at the neighbours lack of talent: I think it would be a little more tolerable if it had come from […]

Grow Up Szczesny!! Is Koscielny set to be the marquee player to leave this summer?

Morning all… Why does Szczesny feel the need to open his big fat choppers? If you look at Chelsea’s fixtures, they have Tottenham and Everton left and they won’t be easy games. And Tottenham do not have enough quality, so there you go… Talk about set us up for a huge fall. Any true professional would […]

Champions League hopes fading faster than Walcott can get down the wing….

Morning all, And what a lovely sunny morning it is too here in England, good day to have a Bank Holiday…. I have a feeling that yesterday’s result at Old Trafford has just ended our Champions League hope. Should the noisy neighbours take all three points at Stamford Bridge, and I suspect they just might, then baring […]

Wenger staying, Sagna staying & It's official, the good times are on their way back…..

Morning all, So it’s official, the worst is over and things are really going to get better! We have gone through a period that was very sensitive, we are coming out of it now. Everything is here to have a great future. We have a good fan base, we have now a strong financial situation, we […]
