Morning all. I guess sometimes one has to accept an opposing team is better than us. More advanced in their long term plan and better at executing it on the pitch. Sure, it’s frustrating, annoying even and invariably we think a different starting eleven would have done better, a different formation or tactical change would […]

Morning all. Darkness had long fallen over the city of Liverpool by the time our early evening match kicked off at Anfield on the 29th December 2018. Like many Arsenal fans no doubt, I feared a trouncing was coming and sadly, it did. AMN had opened the scoring early in the game but that lead […]
Morning all. Have to hand it to Unai Emery really as he’s telling us in no uncertain terms that he agrees with us. Mustafi and Elneny aren’t right for Arsenal Football Club and he wants them gone. Sharpish too as they’re not going to be selected to play much this season, if at all. He’s […]
Morning all. The big Arsenal story over the last 24/48 hours relates to the interview David Ornstein held with Josh Kroenke, details of which have been tinkered with here and there in order to make a good headline on NewsNow. Certainly surrounding the January 2020 transfer window which Josh Kroenke has alleged Arsenal will be busy […]
Morning all. There was a time when the Arsenal midfield what a thing of beauty. Powerfully destructive in it’s defending of the oppositions attempts to threaten, dynamic in turnovers, brutally efficient, with a Gallo-Romance twist or a South American Samba. The names trip off of the tongue; Petit, Vieira, Edu, Gilberto Silva, Parlourinho. They drove us […]
Morning all. It’s been ten years since we last won our opening two fixtures. The BT Sport crew made sure we didn’t forget that little gem, just like both they and Sky Sports made sure we remembered how long it was since two young English players started a Premier League together. Whatever floats their boat […]
Morning all. It’s great to see Hector Bellerin, Kieran Tierney and Dinos Mavropanos back training. Not much football going on but they’re all out in the fresh air and back running. Pushing hard to reach peak fitness. Pushing hard for what will be a much welcomed return to the first team. Rob Holding is […]
Morning guys. Kev’s part two, the defence. The Maitland-Niles experiment at full back/wing back, has not exactly been rip roaring success as his performance in Baku highlighted last season but it’s not been a disaster either. Summer rumours linked Arsenal with a move for PSG right back Muenier but it didn’t happen so AMN continues […]
Morning all. Another from Kev this morning. I started writing this piece before the transfer window had even opened. The rumour mill was already in full flow by then with what often seemed to be credible links to players. Most though never made through the Arsenal doors, just as I believed they wouldn’t. I kept an […]
Morning all. Haven’t seen the game yet, nor the highlights so can’t comment on anything other than how good it is to kick the season off with a victory. An away one at that which is something we struggled to achieve last season. Another bonus is Chambers and AMN being part of a defence which […]
Morning happy people. Feeling all warm and fuzzy inside? Positive and optimistic ahead of the new season which kicks off on Sunday at Newcastle? I sure am. In fact I’ve not felt such optimism towards Arsenal going into a new season for a long long time. This has to have been one of the best […]
Morning all. A scribble from Kev this morning.. So, what does everyone think about our brand new transfer task force after their first proper transfer window? Raul stated a few months back that Arsenal would have to be smarter in the market, which in fairness wasn’t a very high bar to set given the shambolic […]
