I’ve just seen that the Mr Ego of the refereeing world, Howard Webb is our official for the Monday night fixture at Old Trafford. I truly think he is up there with some of the worst we have seen in recent years yet he’s supposed to be the best the English Premier League has on […]

Who would have wagered that we’d have to go till the last day of the Champions League in our easiest group on paper but somehow we managed to bottle it. Losing away to Braga and Shaktar was very demoralising but we have to finish the task at hand in order to qualify. Partizan, have lost all of […]
Back to the Premier League today and a nice tasty fixture against a side that are floating around the relegation places. I used to enjoy watching Fulham under Roy Hodgson but now under Mark Hughes they are just another side who I hope we tear apart and embarrass. No doubt they will arrive at The […]
Ok, I know we are playing at The Emirates but the way we’ve been playing away from home this season, maybe we need to approach tonight as if we were away from home. Why can’t they play with the same grit and steel as they do on their travels is beyond me. Anyway, I think our home form will […]
Well here we go again then, Saturday lunchtime kick off, live on Sky Sports and one thing we don’t need is a repeat of last Saturday’s showing or Wednesday’s dull performance. We know Cesc is out as is Eboue, Diaby, Vermaelen, Frimpong and Clichy. Oh, and Almunia! That’s according to AFC.com so if I’m wrong, blame them, […]
So finally Cesc has something to say but not about how the team he captains played at the weekend, instead he chose to look to tonight’s fixture against Braga. Well thanks Cesc, for nothing, your country gets spanked by Portugal and you tell the fans how sorry you are but us, nothing!! Fabregas has warned […]
So Nikki B isn’t prepared to fight for his place by the sounds of it, he’d rather take the easy option and find another club if Wenger doesn’t start playing him. What is wrong with the lad? Does he think football clubs should only have two centre forwards who will play in every game and […]
So says Sebastien Squillaci…. He suggests that should we lose tonight it will all but end our chances of winning the Premier League. Sunday’s result against Newcastle was a shame as we had the chance to get closer to Chelsea and open up a gap on teams behind us. A great side does not suffer […]
Well, if you believe all that’s written in the Sunday rags this morning, Robin van Persie is set for his return today. Whether that means he has a ticket to watch the game or he’ll actually be on the bench I haven’t a clue, your guess is as good as mine. Suggestion is he has […]
As we enter match-day four we are well on course to a trip to Wembley. We have 9 points from 3 games in which we have scored 14 goals while only conceding two in the process. It’s a remarkable feat considering we broke the previous record held by the Galacticos, 12. We have scored 14 […]
Games like this are often the toughest to play. Last weekend we beat the Northern Chavs on their own turf, followed that with a very good away win at Newcastle in the Carling Cup with many a changed side, so confidence has to be high. But not too high I hope, every players feet must […]
Following our fine win at the weekend it’s good to listen to a real ‘Mr Arsenal’ talk about his old club and speak from his heart. Ray Parlour isn’t one of those ex-players who have an axe to grind, nor does he feel the need to ever praise us up when we all know things […]
