Morning all. There really is little/no news today but this little peice from The Daily Mail caught my eye… Football writer Chris Wheeler has taken to writing yet another ‘story’ about Mesut Ozil and his move to Arsenal. According to him, our midfield genius could still have moved to Manchester United just hours before the […]

Morning all. Aaron Ramsey passed a fitness test yesterday and will be playing for Wales, in fact he’s captain again so expect him to play in both fixtures. I’d rather hoped he fail his fitness test, return back to Arsenal, be fit for next weekend and of course, well rested. Talking of injuries, Laurent Koscielny […]

Morning all. Surprised? I am to be honest as it’s not too often anyone dishes out praise to Arsenal, let alone the manager and player for September award to two of our men. I’m quite surprised that Brenda Rogers and his striker Sturridge didn’t scoop both awards as the media/press can’t stop raving about how […]
Morning all. Well that’s it for two weeks and it’s going to tough for us as we have been on a very good run. Our players have been withdrawing from international duty. Already Lukas Podolski, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Theo Walcott and Santi Cazorla are absent but now Bacary Sagna and Tomas Rosicky have joined them. Apparently Arsene […]
Morning all. Football is a funny old game isn’t it, last Tuesday we came out of the blocks like greyhounds and zipped the ball around with pace and precision, we were unstoppable. Yesterday was very different. We lacked pace, urgency and at times, it seemed interest and our passing game was all over the place. […]
Morning all. Whilst fans and media alike are raving about Mesut Ozil and his deep box of trickery, Arsene Wenger believes that Mathieu Flamini has been, and will continue to play a key part in our season: Flamini has given us a balance between attacking and defending. He is somebody who accepts doing the dark […]
Morning all. I could envision myself getting to know another culture and language. Any chance of Spain? That was a goal earlier, but that is unrealistic due to the financial crisis. So why not England? “I would be the fourth German at Arsenal, that wouldn’t be so bad. That was Bayer Leverkusen’s Gonzalo Castro talking to […]
Morning all. Jurgen Klopp will be missing from the dugout when we face Dortmund in just over a couple of weeks time. He was missing at the Marseille match but his side still romped past the French side but we are stronger than Marseille and should his side be on the back foot Klopp won’t […]
Morning all. Onto a bit of fun this morning regarding our 6′ 4″ French centre-forward. In May 2008, at an age of 21, Oliver Giroud signed up for French Ligue 2 side Tours. In his first season, he made 23 league appearances and, scoring 9 goals. In his second season, he made 38 appearances and […]
Morning all. Arsenal teenager Jack Jebb has been banned for four games for racially abusing an opponent during a Premier League Under-18 clash with Norwich in March. There was no complaint from any player, this incident was reported to the FA by the match officials. I am sure someone at the club will read him […]
Morning all. Interesting to hear the two managers speak ahead of tonights fixture, neither can praise the other high enough and to be fair, if only for events so far this season, both managers deserve such praise. Tonight is going to be the toughest test we have faced so far this season in my opinion […]
