Morning all. Apparently, Canal+ have reported that Demba Ba is all set to sign for us on the 1st of January 2013. Well I’m not sure where they get that idea from, or even if they have got it right, he’s what we need. Of course position wise, we need a ruthless goal scorer and […]
Morning all, Christmas Eve is here, just when did that spring up on us all……… Third place didn’t last long did it, certainly not after Chelsea battered Aston Villa 8-0. Somehow, and maybe with a little help from other sides, we have managed to get ourselves up the table and into the top four. Now we […]
It took a soft penalty decision awarded to us and a couple turned down for Wigan to get all three points but right now, do we honestly care? Walcott didn’t dive, he just stumbled over after being gently caught from behind and as for the Wigan claims for handball, well blame the ref for that. Just as […]
Morning all, Start with today’s gossip: Arsenal are ‘exploring an audacious swoop for Barcelona striker David Villa’ according to The Daily Mail. The cunning plan is a loan until the end of the season and if all goes well, we’re going to try for a permanent deal. Apparently Villa is getting fed up with warming the bench […]
Morning all, Arsene Wenger had to answer questions about Theo Walcott yet again yesterday, is he staying or is he going and the answer to the latter was: No, that is for sure. My gut feeling is that he belongs to this club and that I hope he will sign for us. I always am […]
According to the local newspaper in Southampton, Luke Shaw is “heavily tipped” to leave the club in January and his expected destination is Arsenal. This story has been rumbling since the summer and it wouldn’t surprise me if this turn out to be true. Having just tied down five British players to long-term contracts, Wenger seems keen […]
Morning Gooners, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Carl Jenkinson, Kieran Gibbs, Jack Wilshere and Aaron Ramsey, all five are expected to sign new contracts within days. Theo Walcott’s contract obviously needs sorting out and seeing Wenger finally playing him in a central role against Reading, that could mean all sorts of things. The main one of course is […]
‘Oh what fun it is to see, Arsenal win away………’ That’s what the Arsenal fans were merrily singing as the game came to an end last night. They were superb yet again, they didn’t give up for the entire match… The night belonged to Santi Cazorla who bagged his first hat-trick for Arsenal. Lukas Podolski gave us the lead […]
Morning all, We’ve heard from George Graham, Ray Parlour, Stewart Robson, Gary Neville and even Jeff Stelling has had a few words to say on the ‘should he stay or go’ debate…. But forget all of those, what about the current players, what do they think? Surely they are some of the most important people […]
Morning all, Seems I missed the ‘Johan Djourou want’s Napoli’ story yesterday… According to his agent, Djourou is surplus to requirements at Arsenal and was close to moving away before this current season started, now it seems he could be gone in January with Italy his preferred destination. Djourou has been with us a long […]
Morning Gooners, Bit of gossip from the newspapers: West Ham want to take Chamakh on loan in January, a move I am sure would be welcomed by all Arsenal fans and Chelsea are reported to be front-runners in the chase for Theo Walcott. Toulouse right back Serge Aurier has been added to Arsene’s wanted list, the […]
So in the blue corner, we have Stewart Robson – who came through the Arsenal youth system and played at Highbury from 1981 to 1986 but supports West Ham. He’s recently branded Wenger ‘a dictator in many ways’ and claimed that there was a growing rift between the manager and his assistant Steve Bould. He’s […]
