Potential Arsenal player of the month who seldom plays! Yesterdays Chip paper makes boring reading…

Morning all. I can’t find anything from old ‘Chips’ on the official website but the back pages are all running with this Arsenal story. The club posted cash reserves of £100.5m, having seen their football financial turnover rise from £158m to £191m, thanks mainly to the new Premier League TV deal. (The Mail) Sir Chips is […]

Santi a gonner! Would a new manager stop the better players leaving Arsenal?

Morning all. A regular topic of conversation here on HH is about the players who during Arsene Wengers reign have left which got me thinking. Arsenal have for the last ten years, maybe more, been run in a self sustaining way which has ensured the long term stability and survival of the club. Some admire […]

Does Massimiliano Allegri have what it takes to become the next Arsenal Manager?

Morning all. To kick off with, here’s youtube clip of Sky Sports panel discussing what they believe is going on at the club. You’ll be surprised, it’s really good in my opinion. No nastiness, just honest views from the outside… Anyway: In the wake of Arsene Wenger’s completion of 20 years as the manager of […]

Sowing the seeds… Arsene rolls out three excuses for failure against Sutton Utd.

Morning all. Until we drew Sutton Utd in the FA Cup, I didn’t know the club existed. In fact mention Sutton, and all I ever thought about was a packet of seeds I’d bought ready for Spring planting… The biggest concern ahead of tonight has to be their pitch, not only as it’s artificial but […]

Four more years for Arsene Wenger? History records broken, they might again tomorrow…

Morning all. So Arsene Wenger has vowed to go on, not necessarily at Arsenal, but in football. At 67 years old, he still believes he has it in him to win. PSG are the hot tipped favourites to hire him but I strongly suspect that’s purely based on Wenger being French. Why would a club […]

Arsenal are light years away from being where they should be. Bergkamp masked so many failings in Wenger’s transfer business…

Had anyone dared to suggest sacking Arsene Wenger in 2006, they’d have been carted off to the funny farm by men in white coats. And yet that was his nadir. He peaked with Arsenal’s CL Final appearance, and though the fall hasn’t been cataclysmic over the last eleven years, Arsenal are still light years away from […]

Arsene Wenger is leaving in the summer… March/April we can expect an announcement…

Morning all. Another day in a depressing Arsenal life. It’s hard to be positive about anything going on at the club these days and I can’t remember the last time I felt concerned ahead of a fixture like we have on Monday evening. A 3G pitch, a small ground where the home fans will probably […]

Arsenal need to play like Burnley, otherwise it could be an awful night in Munich…

Morning all. Poor old Hull City, they’ve been charged by the FA after a few of their players were a little too strong with their protests after Kieran Gibbs was booked instead of being sent off at the weekend.  Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad Clattenburg only reached for his yellow card but had that […]
