Is Arsene ready to smash it in the transfer window? Mustafi deal off as alternatives lined up?

Morning all. Not quite the 8-2 thrashing which saw Arsenal/Wenger hit the panic button on deadline day, but still an embarrassing and quite humiliating defeat against a side who might just be one of a few clubs to keep Arsenal out of the top four when May comes around. Don’t get me wrong, all this top four […]

Alexis and Ozil departures imminent? Arsenal no longer an attractive club…

Morning all. No more match reports here on HH. I hate writing them, I doubt you guys read them and what’s the point in them? You’ve already seen the game either on television or online… Arsenal lost, a familiar tale on the opening day of the season and to make matters worse, Aaron Ramsey suffered […]

Decision made and it’s done! Arsenal fans can always rely on Arsene Wenger…… To let us down!

Morning all. So here we are, the new season finally kicks off for our boys. Goodness only knows where the last couple of months have gone as it only seems like yesterday we thrashed Aston Villa 4-0 on the final day of the last campaign. Arsene Wenger has finally made up his mind about who will be […]

Arsenal up offer for Mahrez? The Emirates is no fortress and Arsenal were worse on the road…

Morning all. The under 23’s kicked off their new season yesterday and in similar fashion to the seniors of late, they started with a loss at home. Not the best start to a new league set up in England. These boys should be pushing for a place in the first team, not losing to Reading. […]

No striker will be signed says Arsene! But could two centre-back deals be done this weekend?

Morning all. It’s always about the fee of a player with Arsenal isn’t it? The club clearly want Valencia’s centre-back Shkodran Mustafi but no fee has yet been agreed between the two clubs. The players agent suggests personal terms with Arsenal which is great but until Arsenal stump up the right money, Mustafi will be going […]

What is Jack Wilshere smoking? Big transfer boost from Arsene Wenger.

Morning all. As usual during a transfer window, there’s little news surrounding Arsenal. Things looked good earlier in the summer when the club announced the signing of Granit Xhaka but since then, there’s not been a lot to shout about. But Jack Wilshere reckons these’s a reason to be cheerful and talking to Sky Sports, […]

Defender misses training, on his way to Arsenal? Arsenal can win the league this season….

Morning all. I’m not a fan of the Mirror, never have been and probably never will be. They have journalists who claim to know which club is buying what players, John Cross who thinks he knows everything which is going on at Arsenal and seldom do their stories have much substance. Some might say the […]

Gabriel injury a blessing in disguise? Two defenders in by Sunday?

Morning all. An injury to Gabriel just before the final whistle blew last night, took the gloss off of a 3-2 victory over Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City side. The injury looked serious and I feel sorry for the player, especially if he’s out for a long time which looks likely. But let’s put his loss […]

Arsene Wenger confirms he’s not put off by transfer fees, it’s finding the right players which is the problem….

Morning all. The ghastly under-tall Portuguese man has hit back at both Arsene Wenger and Jurgen Klopp because he didn’t like the comments they made about paying £100 million for Paul Pogba. ‘I don’t talk about what goes on at other clubs’ he says, no doubt with his fat tongue firmly planted in his cheek […]

Striker opens up on Arsenal move. All change for the Vikings…

Morning all. Takuma Asano has finally confirmed he’s an Arsenal player, but he wasn’t sure about making the move to London. Having said he often thought about playing abroad, leaving Japan was tough, until : I had the offer from Arsenal. Of course, I was still not sure whether to go or not. I talked […]

Mustafi absence from friendly fuels the fire & Wenger’s stuck in a time-warp….

Morning all. During the early hours of this morning, Herb’s Army posted a really good comment on HH, so I’ve nicked it for today’s post and here it is: Arsene Wenger’s abilities as a football manager have been vastly over exaggerated and tolerated for far too long. The two separate halves of his time at Arsenal […]

Will it be ‘Arsenal haven’t won the league for thirteen years……?

Morning all. Arsenal haven’t won the Premier League for twelve years and boy don’t the media like to remind us every day and it’s quite likely that when May arrives, they’ll all enjoy adding another year to that tally. As Utd, City and that ghastly West London club have changed managers, Arsenal as a club, stand […]
