Respect RvP, well that’s what Arsene Wenger is asking for. I hope it [reception] is a respectful one because he did very well for us for eight years. We campaign against discrimination, it was still the case last week so why should it not be the case this week? Well I am not sure that […]

Couple of bit’s from the newspapers this morning. The Daily Mail report that Wenger is going German in a big way. He’s obviously very happy with what Mertesacker and Podolski have brought to the club and happy with the way both Gnabry and Eisfeld are progressing too. So much so, suggestion is that our chief scout […]
Morning Gooners, A bit of gossip from the ever unreliable Daily Mail. They report that FIVE players are heading for the exit in January and they are, Theo Walcott Johan Djourou, Sebastien Squillaci, Andrei Arshavin and Marouane Chamakh. Arsenal are believed to want to keep Theo but a contract agreement is yet to be reached. Apparently […]
Schalke 04 tonight at The Emirates and I don’t think there is anyone who wouldn’t want to see us batter them, giving us all the much-needed lift we need after the weekend. Laurent Koscielny has overcome his backache and returns to the squad but this looks to be another fixture which has come too early […]
Morning all, The International break is finally over and Arsenal are back, and so it Jack Wilshere if we believe his agent. Jack is in the squad which heads to Norwich for the evening kick off. I doubt if he will start but I wouldn’t bet against a ten minute cameo at the end. Injuries […]
Morning Gooners, Arsene Wenger dropped the biggest hint yesterday that he’s about to give Theo Walcott what he wants, and that’s a central role. Talking to afc.com about the transition of Gervinho from winger to striker he had this to say about both he and Walcott: I did it with Thierry Henry, I did it […]
Morning Gooners, Carl Jenkinson is yet to make his mind up about who to represent at International level. We all know his choices are England or Finland and if Roy Hodgson has any sense, he’ll call our right-back up pretty sharpish and sort that issue out! He really is going to be a super defender, […]
Morning Gooners, Chelsea take a short trip across London to face the meanest defence in the league today, a record equalled only by themselves so far this season. Old Lille club-mates, Gervinho and Hazard will be up against each other rather than in the same team and after the final whistle, who will come out on […]
Morning Gooners, Coventry City roll into town today, for a 3rd Round tie in the much maligned creation of the late Alan Hardaker O.B.E. Hardaker was the Secretary of The Football League back in the days of Division’s One to Four, and during the 1960’s, was the main architect of The Football League Cup. His remit […]
Morning Gooners, A few words from ‘Mad Jens’ throughout today’s post: We once played Inter Milan and nearly got knocked out of the Champions League. We knew we had to get a result and all of a sudden this team really stood up. We beat them 5-1 in Milan, and so it showed us at […]
The Champions League returns for another season and this time the final will be played at Wembley. It’s a classic case of so near yet so far at the same time. We have been in the Champions League for over a decade with consecutive appearances but are yet to win it. During the draw when […]
Morning Gooners, Finally, the proper football is back! Arsenal news: Wojciech Szczesny is available again following a rib injury and Theo Walcott will be assessed before a final decision is made, but he was training with the squad yesterday, so he should be fine and as we all know, Abou Diaby is a doubt because of a hip […]
