Arsenal: My View on yesterday’s performance. First off, what a fantastic win by the mighty Gunners! I really enjoyed the patience displayed by the boys, against the same opposition we face a month from now. I am going to start with a minor worrying detail. Our BFG, Sagna and Kos have been rock solid in […]

Morning all. We had to wait 120 minutes for it to be right, but our order of penalty takers was spot on, as was the choice of players who were chosen to take them. Arsene got that all absolutely right, just as he did with standing by Lukasz Fabianski… As for the rest of the […]
Morning all… No match report as I’m bored of writing the same old stuff each week.. Yet again yesterday, the lack of passion, pace and width in our side was exposed. The first half was awful, we were outplayed, over-run, out fought and yet thanks to some solid defending, we only went into the break […]
I don’ t think there’s too much need to talk about the mistakes we made. We got a good hiding today. Yes, of course it’s one of the worst days [in my career]. It’s over after 20 minutes and it’s a long game after that. You don’t prepare all week to experience that kind of […]
Morning all. Soft penalty says Martinez, dead cert says Peter Reid, an Everton man…. I’m not sure you’d find one more clear cut and and easy for Mark Clattenburg to give than Barry’s foul on Oxlade-Chamberlain… Lucky say the pundits, pointing to a couple of misses by Barkley when the scores were 1-1… Don’t you […]
Morning all. We needed a good result after the Bayern match and we got just that. Just a few months ago we were all raving about over that very special team goal which Jack Wilshere finished in style. What a treat that was eh… Back then, doubts were that we’d witness such a goal again […]
Morning all. So we lost 2-0… But, all time the game was 11 verses 11, we matched the current Champions of Europe in every sense. In fact I’d say that until Szczesny was sent off, we were the far better side side. Oxlade-Chamberlain was causing Bayern all sorts of problems down the right and but […]
Just before kick-off over a week ago against Liverpool in the premier league Arsene said: “I want us to control possession.” Unfortunately for him the team was out cold before 20 minutes had been played. In fact it was not until the 65th minute before the team began to show glimpses of a team that […]
Morning all. That had to be one of the worst, if not the worst Manchester United sides we have ever faced under Arsene Wenger yet the best we could manage was a 0-0 draw. If we turn out like we did last night for many more fixtures, we’ll be right back scrabbling for a top […]
Morning all. OUCH! That was painful and embarrassing! Let’s not try and find an excuse for yesterday – face facts, we were awful and that performance cannot just be written off as a bad day at the office. Nor can it be compared to the dreadful result we suffered at Old Trafford just a season or […]
Morning all. Tony Pulis, always the man to lead his side out with one thing in mind. Foul, defend, foul again and defend… I was quite shocked to see him line up against us with two strikers up front, the rest of his tactics were so predictable though. Mind you, so were ours. We played the […]
Morning all. Six changes were made last night. Fabianski, Jenkinson, Mertesacker, Koscielny, Gibbs, Ozil, Wilshere, Oxlade-Chamberlain, Gnabry, Podolski, Bendtner Substitutes: Viviano, Sagna, Monreal, Zelalem, Flamini, Cazorla, Giroud Podolski and Ozil have had their critics so far this season and yes, many will use the old cliche ‘it was only Coventry’ but I don’t buy that […]
