We all know Arsene Wenger has now been with our club for fifteen years, mind you it seems like only yesterday that the unknown man arrived looking happy and relatively young-looking, for his age. 😉 We all wondered who the heck he was but it didn’t take long for us to realise David Dein had […]

Seriously, were we any worse off in midfield when Denilson played? Were we any worse off up front when Nik played? Denilson was not ever a defensive midfielder, we all know that and his true role is a creative one. He’s more of an Arteta than a Song… As for Nik, why have a tall […]
So, first off, Wenger confirmed what we all suspected would happen, and that is Thomas Vermaelen has a little setback and his returned will be delayed by one or two weeks – well, no surprise really eh, we all saw that one coming didn’t we? In fact, I will be surprised if that turns out […]
Fun Day Friday….. Aren’t you just glad we don’t have players who refuse to play when asked? Ok, we had a sulky Anelka years back, an Adebayor who made it clear he wanted out to earn a better wage and Nasri for the same reason but I don’t think any of them actually refused to […]
Fergie has been talking about the fixture’s and how the so-called ‘top sides’ have theirs moved around just to suit television showing. It shows itself quite clearly because when you see the fixture lists come out now, they can pick and choose whenever they want the top teams on television. You get some ridiculous situations […]
Yep, Laura Harvey and her Gals have now won their third Cup in a season. Yesterday’s 4-1 victory over Birmingham Ladies, a side they have not beaten all season, secured the Continental Cup. They had already won the Women’s Super League and the FA Cup, so a nice Domestic Treble in the bag for another […]
So says Owen Coyle ahead of our battle with Bolton tomorrow. In fact, the criticism Arsene has received is absolutely ridiculous. He is one of the best managers in world football. Always has been. Always will be. The nature of the league we are in, with its global coverage, is that everybody has an opinion […]
Two stories to talk about today, the first has to be the biggest load of poppycock I have ever read – and that is Joey ‘Thug’ Barton reckons he was in with a chance of signing for us and he’d been in talks with Arsene Wenger in August. He goes on to suggest that the […]
ARSENAL FC 3 – 1 SHREWSBURY TOWN FC September 20, 2011: Emirates Stadium Just a week after our heroic Champions League effort in Dortmund, we kicked this season’s Carling Cup off with a visit from Second Division Shrewsbury Town. Not the most difficult assignment – certainly not like last season, where we had an immediate […]
Last month David Dein suggested that Wenger may have had enough of Arsenal and was ready to walk away. Wenger quickly rebuffed Dein’s view by saying: David is not right. I will one day prove to you my loyalty by showing what I have turned down to stay here. You will be surprised. You can […]
AFC.Com has been full of updates and comments about all things football… Makes a change I suppose…. Firstly, it’s been confirmed that we will play in our home colours against Blackburn and Szczesny will therefore be wearing grey – personally I prefer him in pink. 😉 Yossi has obviously impressed Arsene Wenger as he said […]
For the first time in a while Theo Walcott has a player breathing down his neck for a starting right in the side and for the first time in a long while I am believing it’s time for Theo to have his butt placed on the bench just to remind him that he needs to […]
