There have been quite mixed rewards afforded to Arsenal over the seasons gone by from the policy of loaning out players. Arsenal do this for many reasons, mostly financial but there is a two-fold benefit that I think the club usually hope for. That is, the benefit of our young players gaining experience and making […]
So it’s not only me who thinks highly of Theo Walcott, our captain loves him…. I love him, I honestly love him, I don’t understand the criticism. On Saturday he gave three very clear assists, two for me and one for Alex. He was sharp, he was playing fantastically and, like anyone, he misses chances. […]
A frequent comment made by fans is about our Captain and how we should be signing players that prove to him that as a club we have real ambition and intent. A club that wants to win trophies and not just settle for 4th place, a signing or two that would convince Van Persie to […]
And so it began on a cold winters day in February, the boys had been told to rise and shine early for a 1pm kick off….. As the referees whistle blew, it didn’t take long before Francis Coquelin picked out Theo Walcott down the right, he then played an inch perfect ball along the ground […]
I know this will shock you but I am so happy to see this guy back in training… Seriously, I watch us and like many other fans I think what this current side miss is players like Jack Wilshere, Carl Jenkinson, Henri Lansbury, Frimpong and any other true Gooner in our ranks…. When we lose, […]
Having heard the reports that the results of the scan Jack Wilshere had on his ankle about a week ago show he still has a stress fracture and is set to miss the rest of the season, I just can’t understand why, with that big fat £50m sitting in the bank, one of our best […]
So, same old same old for our side last night, lots of the ball, yet not once could we hit the back of the net. The first quarter of an hour was all us and we came close when Robin had a header cleared off the line and our striker nearly turned provider when he […]
Morning Gooners, Arsene Wenger was true to his word, he said he would not be partaking in this January’s transfer market and didn’t. He made a deal for a young lad of eighteen from Dortmund but as he is yet to play first team football for any club so no doubt he won’t for us […]
Just a short post today as there is little to no news relating to OUR club. We know what day it is, it’s Deadline Day and I strongly suspect most football fans will be wondering if their club will make a move today on what is their final chance to bag a bargain. I don’t […]
Snippet on Ryo from Wenger: I will have a chat with him tomorrow and I have a little plan. Oxlade-Chamberlain plays on the flanks now too, so if I can find an opportunity for him to play somewhere I will decide whether to do that tomorrow. It will have to be in England because he […]
Arsene Wenger has made two statements this week, one in which he maintains that the FA Cup is very important to Arsenal and the second is that the Premier League remains his priority. So on the back of that it’s decision day, who does he pick, a full strength squad, or does he use this […]
I don’t get this – Bacary Sagna, one of the best right backs in the Premier League, a player who is just returning after suffering a leg break is the reason give by Arsene Wenger for not buying a left back! Sheet, let the guy come back and play where he is best, not stick […]
