Morning all. I read an article in the Guardian by Amy Lawrence. Good too I thought as she compares the Ian Wright and Bruce Rioch situation back in 1996 with now ongoing feud between Mesut Ozil and Unai Emery. One can hardly disagree with idea that something is clearly wrong between the two. But in […]

Eleven years. Firstly, where have they gone? Secondly, too many of those years ruined because of two men. Tony Pulis and his ‘rough ‘em up’ tactics. Ryan Shawcross for executing them. Most of Aaron Ramsey’s Arsenal career was played under the management/coaching of Arsene Wenger, all actually apart from this season which proved to be […]
One from AllezKev this morning. During the long build up to Baku, there was a rumour doing the rounds which suggested there might be some changes made to our coaching staff in the summer. That rumour concerned Steve Bould. Is he staying or is he leaving and was it always his intention to do one […]
Morning all. All I can say is thank heavens for that. The thought of our now not so noisy neighbours winning the Champions League, well, it matters not as they lost. Not for one minute does that justify us losing our Europa Cup Final but at least salt won’t be rubbed into our already sore […]
Just 35 years old and along with his cousin, he’s gone. José Antonio Reyes – 1st September 1983 – 1st June 2019 He wasn’t one of our own but between 2004 and 2007, he was one of ours. An extremely gifted footballer who despite trying, simply couldn’t settle in London, England. The Neville sisters played a […]
Morning all. A short post. Just one to get us thinking. I still can’t make up my mind over Unai Emery which speaks volumes in itself really. This season produced nothing we haven’t seen before. Good performances, dire performances, mini good runs followed by bad. Dreadful on the road, better at home when it […]
Morning all. A dreadful location to hold the final, a soulless stadium and the BT Sport coverage was about as poor as our second half performance. Arsenal just about sneaked the first half battle but as chances came along, they went as quickly as they arrived. Two penalty shouts, neither given. The second, the tugging […]
Good morning guys and gals. The day has finally arrived. Arsenal’s season could yet be a successful one, but it could also fade away leaving yet another disappointing ten months of football behind. I know the money and Champions League football are important but they’re not the most important thing in my opinion. A […]
Morning all. This season has been mixed. Some really good performances mixed in amongst a number or really awful performances. Odd team selections matched by far too many individual and collective errors. We’ve played really well against the top six sides, City and Liverpool away aside but we’ve also embarrassed ourselves against Palace, Everton, […]
Morning all. Krystian Bielik, 6’ 2, eyes are… I’ve no idea what colour they are and quite frankly, I don’t care. He’s been at Charlton Athletic all season on loan and from what I’ve read, he’s impressed. Admittedly, League One isn’t where you’ll see the kind of football Man City or Barcelona etc dish […]
Morning all. The boys have landed in Baku. Mkhitaryan is absent as we know but Danny Welbeck has made the trip booted, suited and no doubt hoping to play one more time for Arsenal before he departs for good. For nothing. The last in a long line of players who the club have managed dreadfully […]
Morning all. End of season always brings with it a recap. Who deserves the player of the season, who improved the most, who scored the most and of course, who scored the best goal. Alexandre Lacazette has already scooped the player of the season gong, Aubameyang scored the most goals for the club and in […]
