Morning Gooners, The difference to this week from last week is we are now not the only English team through to the last sixteen of the Champions League. We were leading our Group with no defeats but now we have just suffered our first and against inferior opposition. Paul Merson stated on television that had […]

It didn’t seem that long ago that everything appeared to be wrong with our club, and yes, I wrote many a post moaning about it…. We’d move to The Emirates, players started to be sold and seldom were they replaced, even if they were replaced, too often they appeared to be very poor substitutes. We […]
Morning Gooners, So, we are now one down with three to go, competitions that is as if you didn’t know. Out of the Carling Cup at the hands of Manchester City, who just so happen to be the leaders of the Premier League. As far as the game went, we handled ourselves quite well, animosity […]
According to The Daily Mail Juventus are lining up Theo Walcott and Gareth Bale, in the deal for Theo they are willing to offer Milos Krasic in part-exchange, well they can want all they like, this just won’t happen! Lille striker Moussa Sow, a name we have all seen written in connection with us before […]
Before anything else and I know we all talked about it yesterday but, the world of football truly lost a really nice guy in Gary Speed, may he find peace and may his family and friends find strength as they try to come to terms with such a loss. Ok, onto the post….. First up […]
It isn’t the first let-down we have had following a big mid-week result, and it certainly won’t be the last. Having won our Champions League group and qualified for the knockout stages a few days ago, this match – at home against one of the lower-half sides – was an opportunity to rotate a few […]
We have all been wondering what to make of the absence of Andrey Arshavin, when was the last time he started a match? Over the last few weeks he hasn’t even made it onto the pitch from the bench either but today could see his return which suggests Wenger could rotate a little tonight. Talking […]
Ok, it’s Friday and after our fantastic victory on Wednesday night, I thought just a bit of fun today. Ex Spurs manager, Martin Jol brings his Fulham side to The Emirates tomorrow for another evening kick off. Jol has never managed a league victory against us I think in all his time of managing our […]
Well guys, I don’t know if you have seen the headlines in the last couple of days but if you have you would have seen that England is about to head into the real winter time and snow has been forecast. The areas predicted to be hit are London and the South East. Thursday is […]
Injuries are the bane of every football managers life, and also of us fans. Every club suffers from them, but there does seem a feeling among us Arsenal fans that our club has had the rough end of the injury stick more than most. Not withstanding Robin Van Persie, the player who has spent some […]
Morning all, Some of you may remember a recent post of mine “Thank goodness Wenger is not English” In that post I said that the FA made £2 – £3 million from England home games at Wembley and of course, some of our players are involved. I also said that, that risked our players to […]
Following the 3-0 success over West Bromich Albion in out last fixture, which feels like years ago now, Arsene Wenger attended the customary post-match Press conference and fended off the usual mixture of questions, be they sensible, mischief-making, constructive or inane, he answered with his usual calmness. One journalistic ‘dipstick’ asked him if Vermaelen & […]
