Of course we all do, it was a dark old day in London last season, especially around N5 1BU!! Seventy three minutes into the game and we were 3-0 down at home against todays opposition, and Almunia saved a penalty in the first half! In the last fifteen minutes of the match we woke up […]

Just a quick word on not so silent Stan, he’s still in the UK and was at the Chelsea game. He has also been talking to the players which is a bit of a shock, wonder what he said… He has also been talking to afc.com. He doesn’t believe in the way Man City and […]

If we give absolutely everything and fight together for every single game in every single competition we can still look back at the end of the season and be proud of our attitude and what we have achieved. Have we fans not been saying that for many seasons now? It’s all very well Wenger coming […]

League form bears little relevance to Cup Competitions in my opinion and especially in this Cup. Teams change, different personnel come in for their chance to show their worth, prove that they deserve a chance on a regular basis. We can expect little different tonight either, we should see a mix and match of old […]

Yep, by the time the final whistle goes somewhere around 15.20hrs today, we will have learned if we have taken further steps forward in our Premier League campaign or just same old few steps forward and the same plus one back. Today is a huge test, not only as Stoke are a big side, they […]

Well, nothing should need to be said to the Arsenal players prior to kick off, each and every one of them, regardless of whether they start or sit in the dugout should know long before kick off what this game means to Arsenal Past, Arsenal Future and certainly the Arsenal Fans of the present. This […]

Two weeks ago we went to Dortmund in our Champions League opener for the season and we came away with a very hard earned point. The result was a little bit disappointing – we held on so well and for so long only to concede right at the end. It’s too early to judge how useful […]

Djourou and Yossi are out for today’s fixture with thigh strains but Rosicky, Sagna and Ramsey back in… I don’t think too many fans will be disappointed with the Djourou news but Yossi, well it’s a shame having opened his scoring tally midweek. It’s hard to believe that since Bolton beat us back in April […]

Just a bit of naugtiness – Wenger has reassurred us all that Alex Oxlaide-Chamberlain is nothing like Theo Walcott… PHEW 😉 They are quite similar types of players but Walcott is a bit more a striker and Oxlade-Chamberlain is more a midfielder,  He [Oxlade-Chamberlain] likes more to be in the build-up of things and Walcott […]

Marvin Martin may have signed a new contract but we could still be in with a chance of signing him next summer: The officials made a promise. Indeed to let me leave. I will remain at Sochaux until the end to the season. You all know I love these rumours, the above came from the […]

Here we are again at the start of a new Champions League campaign having been able to navigate past a tricky Udinese side. This time however the expectations for us to win the tournament are much lower after the summer we just had. We have lost players with vast experience in this competition and only […]
