Guest post by Pat from Arsenal FC blog. It is a well known fact that Arsenal have not won the Champions League or the Europa League under Arsene Wenger. The closest the Gunners got to winning Europe’s number one competition was a painful defeat to Barcelona in 2006 which ultimately ended the Invincibles era. In the […]
Morning all. In the short term I mean. Why get stressed over something we can’t change? Protests have been organised but few turn out, booing along with the chants of ‘Wenger Out’ or ‘Kroenke Out’ etc etc have fallen on deaf ears and so here we are, nearly fourteen years after last winning the league, […]
Morning guys. The first half was honours even I thought. A dodgy offside given against Aubameyang was about the closest we got to breaking them down. We looked relatively organised in defence, solid too so it was no surprise that going into halftime the game was goalless. Ozil and Mkhitaryan were struggling to make much […]
Morning all. It’s Derby weekend and who doesn’t love one of those eh? Home or away, this is a game we Arsenal fans love to see us win. It’s a match when current form can go out the window as both sides know the stakes are raised. We’ve already beaten them at The Emirates this […]
Morning all. “I was playing in the park. They didn’t say anything to me but when I was sat in the car after the game, my dad turned around to me in the back seat and told me that there were scouts watching me..“He didn’t exactly say who, but he told me that there were […]
Morning all. Thirteen league games to go. We appear to have a new lease of life thanks to the arrival of Auba and Mikki, whereas points are being dropped by those above us. City are Champions elect I’d say and Utd are just about out of range for us to catch with eleven points the […]
Morning all. Everyone in the training ground, everyone in the team knew he was going to stay. He is a guy that loves London, loves Arsenal and he always gets really angry when things don’t go well so you know how much it means for him to win or lose for this club. So I […]
Morning all. After our terrible defensive display in Wales, one which Arsene Wenger was pretty cheesed off with too, I’d no idea what expect from this Arsenal team against what was anticipated to be a very defensive Everton side and a parked bus. They had pace up front in Bolaise and Walcott and knowing how […]
Morning all. I keep thinking about the goals Theo Walcott scored last season. Nineteen from the wing isn’t a bad return, especially when you consider how few of our players are actually contributing to our goal tally this season, but for reasons only Arsene Wenger and Theo know, this season he was discarded like an […]
Morning all. So that’s that, a bit of news many of us wanted confirmed, Mesut Ozil is staying for another three years after this season. During his time at Arsenal he’s made 182 appearances, scored 36 goals and notched up 61 assists. The latter two factoids would be much greater if A) he had more self […]
Morning all. Today, Raul Sanllehi officially starts in his new role within the club, another person who will take a few pounds of power away from Arsene Wenger. He might not wear the ‘Director of Football’ badge but that’s he’s skill. That’s been his position at Barcelona since 2008 and my guess is he’ll be […]
Morning all. It’s been said before and it’ll be said again. Last nights performance was one of the worst. Not only that, the attitude and approach to the game. Clearly, Wenger and his players, well, a lot of them, learned nothing from Swansea’s defeat of Liverpool. The performance, the result. Two things which added to […]
