Morning all. There are not many times when I read the newspaper and think ‘at last, he/she saw what we all did’ but clearly, Neil Ashton in the Mail Online did: Mark Hughes and his team were agricultural in their approach, looking for a fight at every opportunity. What they got in return was a […]

Morning all. That was a bit of a mixed bag wasn’t it. Moments of sheer magic going forward, great passing, great movement but the finish didn’t match the build up. Joel Campbell had a super chance and only a lucky boot from Harper prevented him from giving us an early lead. I thought Joel was […]
Morning all. Tired of it? Me too. Just when Atkinson awards us a penalty, I thought that finally we in for a game where the referee has a good performance. Err, no yellow card for Traore? Up stepped Alexis to pass the ball to Green.. Oh well, that turned out to be one of very […]
Morning all. It’s nearly Christmas and I like everyone else, have a lot to do before Santa come a calling, talking of which I need to get the chimney swept and go visiting…. Going to Anfield after what happened last season was bound to be a tricky affair and it’s one which perhaps many Arsenal […]
Morning all. A few rumours: The Mail report Spartak Moscow midfielder Romulo could be on his way in January, they claim Arsene Wenger tried to sign him last winter too, he’s been likened to Gilberto… Talking of Cdms, the same newspaper report that we have offered £1.6million for Legia Warsaw’s 16-year-old defensive midfielder Krystian Bielik and […]
Well, we know Stoke away is a tough one, so rather than be up for it from the start, we start slowly give up a goal inside one minute and to then be 3-0 down before half time was simply disgraceful. In what was probably the worst forty-five minutes I’ve seen from an Arsenal side, […]
Morning all. Looks like the away fans are gunning for Arsene Wenger too but then that’s no great surprise…. Unlike at The Emirates, I would imagine other grounds aren’t fussed if our fans arrive with banners in protest of our manager, just a shame there weren’t a few more and directed at Stan Kroenke. The […]
Morning all. What another disappointing performance and result. We scored a wonderful goal. Well worked and well finished by Alexis Sanchez, with some great football by both Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Danny Welbeck beforehand. That was Arsenal at it’s best, what followed was Arsenal at it’s worst…. After the capitulation on Tuesday night, Arsene Wenger assured […]
Morning all. Gossip: Christoph Kramer, a German 6′ 3″ defensive midfielder is being linked to us this morning. He’s currently on loan at Borussia Mönchengladbach from Bayer Leverkusen. He’s 23 years old and represents the German national team. And boy don’t we need a defensive midfielder, and a central defender or two at least!! Last night – what an […]
Morning all. I don’t know about anyone else, but this was a moment I’ve been waiting for for a long time. The return of Theo Walcott. He looked quicker, more focused and supplied Lukas Podolski with a great cross which he volleyed into the word work, nearly breaking the goal. He, Welbeck and Sanchez together […]
Morning all. So many and I mean so many chances and we didn’t take them. 1-0 down after the players jog back to defend like it was a training session! 1-1 and a simply stunning goal from Jack Wilshere. 2-1 up after an even more stunning goal by Alexis. 2-1 up and we couldn’t defend […]
Morning all. You have to love Paul Merson sometimes: Man Utd have one bad season & they’re out of the Champions League. Arsenal have had a couple and still qualify every year! We did, but phew, that was tough eh! Besiktas came to The Emirates and at times, played like the home side and to […]
