Chamakhs Pipe Dream over & Is Vermaelen’s Arsenal career under scrutiny??

If Marouane Chamakh had plans on staying at Arsenal after this season ends, he’s probably just blown them! We all know Wenger does not put up with bad behaviour off the pitch and no doubt when he see’s this photograph, captured by The Daily Mail, he’ll be told to find himself another club, sharpish! Couldn’t […]

Twenty players out this summer? PSG want Chamakh for starters….

Arsenal are entering that period of the season, when difficult decisions are being made on the futures of many fringe players. I don’t mean the likes of Sebastian Squillaci, Nicklas Bendtner, Manuel Almunia, Denilson, Carlos Vela and Lukasz Fabianski as it seems fairly certain that most, if not all of the above, will be leaving […]

Vertonghen, M'Vila, Giroud & Podolski to sign? The Arsene Wenger Witch-Hunt goes on…

Just a few titbits because we all love them: The Sun have a fab story, not too far off being believable too.

Wenger was right to extend Johan Djourous contract & Great News for all….

Towards the end of 2010, Emmanuel Eboue signed a new long-term contract at Arsenal! Roughly ten months later and after his squad number was given to Gervinho, he was gone, sold to Galatasaray. Why did Wenger bother to offer him a new contract? To make sure we got a half decent price for him, that’s […]

Jan Vertonghen plea, Wenger wants Keeper & Let's not talk about the others, we are Arsenal…

Morning Gooners, Well what a weekend of boredom as an Arsenal Fan, we had no FA Cup fixture and because our scheduled weekends opponents were still in the competition, our league fixture was postponed until this coming Wednesday. I’m sure many Gooners feel like I do and hate the thought of not being involved in […]

He's like a fine wine, maturing nicely! Our thoughts are with you Fabrice…..

Tomas Rosicky joined Arsenal in May 2006. He was going to be one of the players that would shape the next team under Arsene Wenger, the Fabregas Team. Out went stalwarts like Sol Campbell, Dennis Bergkamp and Bobby Pires, the man many saw Rosicky replacing. During that period, Arsenal also signed the likes of Emmanuel […]
