As the Summer Window speeds to its conclusion on August 31st, most Gooners are concentrating their attention on the acquisition of new players but what of those talented members of the squad we already have and enjoy? And what does 2011-12 hold in store for them and us?? Jack Wilshere is the cream of the […]
No more will I listen to anything said by Spanish reporters Guillem Balague and Graham Hunter. Nor will I read anything they write with any belief in their ‘stories’. Over the last seven/eight seasons we have listened to them link our players to Real Madrid and Barcelona. We have had it with Vieira, Henry and […]
This post begins from Sunday morning, one man’s views on our weekend: It’s Sunday morning, so I don’t know the outcome of the Emirates Cup, none of us do – I intend to play golf and as I don’t have ESPN, I watched our first game with Boca Juniors on a stream. They are not […]
NOT!! Ok, we should have had a penalty in the first few minutes but Atkinson waved our pleads away. A super goal by Robin van Persie after a great bit of play from the new man Gervinho put us 1-0 up and a wonderful strike by Ramsey made it 2-0 in the second half, again, […]
‘Save The Children’ is the new Charity Arsenal will be in partnership with and the club will unveil this today before The Emirates Cup begins. We all know how much stick Arsene gets for signing the young plays, so when I heard this I chuckled, just for a moment. I thought it was quite funny […]
Well, is he?? So, we have all heard the rumours about Juan Mata, if they are to believed then the player should be signed up before The Emirates Cup, that would be some signing to cheer us all up wouldn’t it? Going along with this rumour, the price is rumoured to be around the £15 […]
Confirmation came from the Arsenal Camp yesterday that Conor Henderson will be out for at least six months following his injury sustained against FC Cologne, life can be cruel to our younger ones these days, Frimpong last season and now Henderson this season. I hope he recovers well and comes back stronger than ever, thankfully […]
Well, what else are we doing in Germany?? Our friendly against FC Cologne is long gone and our next fixture is on Saturday in the Emirates Cup against Boca Juniors, so what is the point in staying out of the UK to train? Are we out there to scout players from German sides, or indeed […]
Three pre-season games played resulting in two wins and a draw. With all the substitutions made during the games, we can’t really say too much about the team only that they are not losing and that suits me fine. Not all good news though as Conor Henderson picked up a knee injury to kick off […]
Football is on its way out, a bold statement for someone to say I know but I think I’m right you know. I was looking at a photo of Carlos Tevez lazing on a sunlounger on a far away beach while his club are off around the world on their pre- season tour and thought […]
Wenger looks to have got it right when talking about our new signing: Gervinho could be an instant success He certainly buried his two chances very well yesterday. He looks to me like he has adjusted very quickly, let’s hope it goes quickly for him. You never know, some players take six months and some […]
Reading through my local paper and it was there in black and white; Theo Walcott is no longer the quickest over 100 metres at the secondary school he attended, so he’s out of their record books! The young lad who has broken his record is Joshua Willock, he knocked 0.07 seconds off of Theo’s 11.58 […]
