We all know Nikki B has been chopsing about how good he is, how he should be playing instead of Chamakh and if Wenger doesn’t play him he’ll find enough club etc etc etc but while all this is going on you just have to spare a thought for Johan Djourou. Once a defensive midfielder […]

I agree as I’m sure all Arsenal fans do… Alan ‘Smudger’ Smith was asked one question by Richard Keys after our game yesterday and that was, ‘ What was what would you change in this Arsenal side if you could?’ Smudger said that we lack that ‘Over my dead body are you going to score attitude’ and that was the only […]
Well here we go again then, Saturday lunchtime kick off, live on Sky Sports and one thing we don’t need is a repeat of last Saturday’s showing or Wednesday’s dull performance. We know Cesc is out as is Eboue, Diaby, Vermaelen, Frimpong and Clichy. Oh, and Almunia! That’s according to AFC.com so if I’m wrong, blame them, […]
If reports are true, it’s very silly if you ask me, why not just spend the same amount on one player who’s ready to get the shirt on and help make a difference to our current set up. The two players we have supposedly made an offer for are Sime Vrsaljko and Mateo Kovacic, both of Dinamo […]
Yep, I mean it, that’s just how I feel about Cesc Fabregas Take a look at his body language; his slowness during a game, his half-hearted free kicks and wayward shots, his constant fouling as if he wants a red card just to get a ban and he so often ‘demands’ the ball despite being in a position which gains […]
I love Arsenal Football Club. I absolutely love it. I have been with it for seventeen years, longer than my lovely wife and I have been together. I caught the bug while living and working in Peterborough, and have continued to faithfully and steadfastly follow it, while moving around different parts of the world. It […]
So finally Cesc has something to say but not about how the team he captains played at the weekend, instead he chose to look to tonight’s fixture against Braga. Well thanks Cesc, for nothing, your country gets spanked by Portugal and you tell the fans how sorry you are but us, nothing!! Fabregas has warned […]
Olivers review of Saturdays debacle… Sooner or later this was going to happen. That it happened in such an important fixture, one where a win would have put us top of the table, adds to the pain. But perhaps that is not even so important – folding a 2-0 hand at home against Spurs is,…..well… […]
It feels no better this morning does it? In fact it feels worse!! I could have checked my lottery numbers last night and found out I’d won the jackpot but it wouldn’t ease any feelings I have right now… Something has to change at Arsenal and soon before we slip off down the table and kiss […]
How much does this fixture matter to you? How much do you want us to wipe the smug grin off every Spud Fan’s face who believes the tide is turning in North London? You might think that’s a silly question to ask a Gooner but today at The Emirates, every fan needs to let their voices show the players […]
Yet another of our favourite Arsenal players of days gone by wants to return to the club he loves. Sadly he’s too old do don his boots and go racing off down the left hand side of the pitch, but his knowledge of the game could certainly help a few of our players should it […]
Five years ago Arsene Wenger secured a deal for Carlos Vela, he was just 16 years old at the time. Many European clubs wanted to sign Vela but Wenger won the race, no doubt the way Arsenal blood youth was what convinced him to come to London. Due to work permit restrictions he headed straight out off […]
