Eight points off the top but heading in the right direction? Time to focus on the youth perhaps…..

Morning all. While Wenger and his big boys go about trying to convince us all that all is well, which it isn’t and won’t be for a long time yet, the under 23’s are doing a tad better. Sitting in second place in their league, just eight points separate them and leaders Chelsea. Perhaps they […]

Double boost ahead of trip to Watford. City did, we must too!

Morning all. Back in the good old days under Arsene Wenger, fixtures like today’s would be little to concern ourselves about. We had leaders, men, warriors. The minutes spent in the tunnel before both sides walked onto the pitch were often daunting for the opposition as they sized up the Arsenal team. Adams, Keown, Vieira, […]

Two could be off in January but Wenger rules out a third…

Morning all. Arsene Wenger has spoken to the media this morning: Mustafi is out for 6-8 weeks. Koscielny has a final test tomorrow. Alexis doesn’t return until tomorrow and could miss the game after receiving ‘special treatment’ from the Brazil players. Chambers is injured. Sead Kolasinac has a sore hip and he too needs a […]

January player swap with PSG? Squads looking thin for the weekend.

Morning all. I’m liking the story about Alexis Sanchez heading off to PSG in January especially as Julian Draxler is reportedly heading our way in exchange. I actually think that’s one of the best deals, if not the best, we could do. But I guess the stumbling block would be either player refusing to move. […]

Danny Welback plus two return to the training ground, although one has already gone..

Morning all. Did you ever the joke? The one about Danny boys father being part of  a bomb disposal team? His name is Stan….. I know, I know, it’s bad but I liked it. Anyway, he, Francis Coquelin and Mesut Ozil are reportedly back fit. No idea if Arsene Wenger intends to start with any […]

Is this Watford man good enough for The Arsenal?

Morning all. Crikey, if watching Arsenal play the game these days is bad then watching England is even worse. They’ve about as much chance of winning the World Cup in Russia next year as Arsenal have winning the Champions League this season. Selling Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain to Liverpool is starting to look like a smart piece […]

Usmanov: “I’m not going to sell my stake. I love Arsenal, that’s why I’m a shareholder.”

Morning all. Rumours surrounding the clubs ownership are gathering place with headlines in the back pages which suggest Stan Kroenke has made Alisher Usmanov yet another offer for his shares in Arsenal. The big guy is seen by many Arsenal fans around the internet world to be our only saviour, the man to shake our […]

All things bright and beautiful today? Arsene Wenger is certainly up for the challenge…

Morning all. Not the best of Saturdays as far as results go and if Arsenal want to stay in the hunt for the league title, winning fixtures like today’s are a must. Six points between us and the league leaders is nothing really, not at this stage of the season although Man City do look […]
