Morning all. Back in the summer of 2016, Arsenal were quite heavily linked with Henrikh Mkhitaryan who was then at Borussia Dortmund. The rumours flying around seemed to please many an arsenal fan but then in fame Jose Mourinho and suddenly the Armenian was a Utd player. Whether or not Mourinho really wanted him remains […]

Morning all. Not the most entertaining of games as far as Arsenal go but to stop Chelsea from scoring should be applauded, especially considering the defensive unit Wenger had to deploy because of injuries so well done to them and Ospina for keeping a clean sheet. This is a two legged tie and so many […]
Afternoon all. Newsnow is full of rumours which suggest Carlo Ancelotti could replace Arsene Wenger in the summer, but we don’t need him then, we need him right now. He ticks every box. He’s a winner, experienced in most leagues including the Premier League and he’d instil a whole new attitude into our current squad. […]
Morning all. That match will go down in history and for all the wrong reasons. Knocked out at this stage of the FA Cup for the first time since Arsene Wenger became the manager. We, the record and current holders of this competition are out. Out having been thumped by a Championship side who totally […]
Morning all. I’ve given up writing about the poor performances from referees as there’s too many to keep track of, so I’ll stick to the ones which have an impact on our fixtures. Involving both sides of course as I don’t want to come across as biased as that would make me as bad as […]
Morning all. Arsene Wenger held his press conference yesterday morning ahead of our FA Cup against clash with Notts Forest and again we’ll be without Sead Kolasinac, Nacho Monreal, Olivier Giroud, Aaron Ramsey and Laurent Koscielny. Sky Sports report that Granit Xhaka has picked up an injury too but there’s no hint on how long […]
Afternoon all. Another game, another draw, another really cheap penalty given against us. ‘Farcical’ said Arsene Wenger and who can argue that he wasn’t right? I certainly can’t. Hector Bellerin went toe to toe with Hazard, the Belgian international dropped to the floor clutching his shin and Taylor bought his cheating antics. This all took […]
Morning all. More poor officiating was on show last night as the neighbours not only opened the scoring against Swansea with a clear offside goal but just after halftime, they should have been down to ten men. I’m not suggesting Swansea would have won the match, but 35 mins against ten men with the score […]
Morning all. Arsene Wenger is still an unhappy man this morning. Stoke, Watford, Man City and West Brom, all matches he cites where poor refereeing was on show and dodgy decisions made. Ours of course hit hardest as we try desperately to make up the points between us and second place but that’s because we’re […]
Morning all. Yesterday evening I sat and wrote a post about the match but decided to leave it where it is. Like you all no doubt, I’m tired of writing about how poor we play the game these days under Arsene Wenger. Robbed of two points by a poor decision from that horrid man Dean […]
Morning all. Make no mistake, I’m no Arsene Wenger supporter and haven’t been for a long time, but isn’t it nice to see another manager making the headlines for a change, especially when that man is Mourinho. He and his boring football isn’t working and now he’s lost Lukaku and Ibra through injury. He’s strikerless […]
Morning all. James Tarkowski, English, Premier League, 6’ 3” and a no nonsense centre back Burnley. 25 years old so the perfect age but annoyingly, he’s a Utd fan. Shane Duffy, 6’ 4” central defender who plays for Brighton and Northern Ireland. After a nasty injury a few years ago followed by several loans, He […]
