Morning all. A few words from Laurent Koscielny to kick off with, taken from the monthly email sent out by the club: I think I lead by example on the pitch. The boys also know that if I’m not happy, I will go out at training and put big tackles in! They know that I […]
Morning all. Arsene Wenger has been talking to the official site about his options available after Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain joined Aaron Ramsey on the injury list. In his eyes it’s a straight fight between Campbell and Iwobi. No mention of Flamini – phew and although Santi Cazorla is an option, the manager recognised that he’s far […]
Morning all. Not a good one either is it? Yesterday afternoon the newspapers reported that both Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will be out for a while. All being well, they’ll be back after the next international break which means they’ll miss the London derby and of course, the crucial fixture against Bayern next week if such […]
Morning all. What on earth is that kit about? Why didn’t the team wear red and white bearing in mind Sheffield Wednesday were wearing a pretty dark coloured kit? Odd! During the day, Tony Pulis had said Serge Gnabry was not good enough to play for his West Brom side, before the day was over, […]
Morning all. The Capital One Cup is back tonight which means it’s time to rest most of the first team and introduce a few young faces together with a few old pros. I love nights like tonight, especially when the boys are on television as it’s a great chance for us all to see who’s fighting […]
Morning all. That was a pretty good weekend for Arsenal. Both Manchester sides dropped points, Southampton and Liverpool played out a draw and Chelsea lost again after which, Mourinho went into hiding. According to the media, the Portuguese Pygmy is on the brink of the sack and a loss against Liverpool this coming weekend would […]
Morning all. Arsene Wenger made three changes to the side which beat Bayern Munich on Tuesday. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain came in for the injured Aaron Ramsey and Gabriel replaced Per Mertesacker who had some kind of illness. I personally believe the change was due to the pace of Lukaku. Giroud started up front with Theo Walcott dropping to the […]
Morning all. LvG wants the Christmas fixtures cancelled so his players can have a party, celebrate the big occasion and of course, have a rest. Arsene Wenger however is dead against having a winter break and believes that as the Boxing Day fixtures kick-off, the whole world are watching. To suppress the game on Boxing […]
Morning all. Happy birthday to Arsene Wenger who is 66 years old today. Talking of him, last Arsene he held an interview with FourFourTwo magazine highlighting how teams should best approach five-a-side and its correlation to the 11-a-side game. Here’s part of it which was written in the Daily Mail yesterday: If you watch five-a-side, most […]
Morning all. Bayern fans took to their seats five minutes into the game in protest against the high priced tickets. Arsenal fans applauded their actions…. We didn’t need Petr Cech back in the summer did we? Well not for the first time, the big goal keeper showed exactly why we did. He was outstanding last […]
With most Arsenal fans trying to make sense of the losses to both GNK Zagreb and Olympiacos in this Champions League campaign, one can’t help but wish that the unexpected results could turn out to be a blessing, enabling us to compete for the Premier League title. However, I would be extremely surprised if these performances […]
Morning all. I’m not overly fussed about tomorrow nights result but as Arsenal fans will be giving up their time and money to watch the boys play against one of the best sides in football, should we expect to see our strongest eleven up against Bayern? Our Champions League destination is in our own hands. Win all the […]
