I got home yesterday to find the new Kit Catalogue, ‘Explosive Arsenal’ on the doorstep – I had a browse through, not with any intention of purchasing anything I hasten to add but as I turned the pages something struck…. Page one – Jack Wilshere, Kieran Gibbs, Aaron Ramsay and Wojciech Szczesny all lined up […]
If your reading this you are probably an Arsenal Fan, maybe a season ticket holder or even an overseas fan who supports from afar but whatever or whoever you are, you probably watch as much of the Arsenal action as anyone – whether it be live, streamed or through one of the television channels. You […]
I have always tried to be optimistic as far as The Arsenal goes but I must admit I am beginning to have a worry…. Defensive frailties were our undoing and we are in no uncertain terms in the deep stuff! Wenger and the board have stated that in this transfer window we will endeavour to […]
A lot has been written about our current Manager but what do we really know about him? Many older supporters will probably know a fair bit but for our younger supporters I thought I would take this quiet spell as a way of showing you why this popular Arsenal manager is so highly acclaimed. Arsene […]
I meet a fair few Dutch people in my job, driving in London. I like Dutch people, they have a good sense of humour, like a beer, have fantastic coffee shops and make reasonably good footballers…. I don’t think that I’d be alone among many Arsenal fans if I said I’d be very happy to […]
The Ajax team of the 70’s, Valeriy Lobanovskyi’s Dynamo Kiev of the early 80’s, Sacchi’s Milan of the late 80’s, Di Stefano’s Madrid, Cryuff’s Barca Dream Team, Manchester United of the late 00’s… What do all these teams have in common? They are all great teams that had sustained periods of success both domestically and […]
Over the 40 odd years that I’ve been an Arsenal fan, I have enjoyed and suffered many ups and downs but one of the most enjoyable ups has been witnessing the development and success of home-grown talent. I’ve always got a ‘kick’ out of seeing one of ‘our own boys’ make the grade, it’s an […]
Transfer news is still rife at the Arsenal, what with Wenger and Gazidis both saying that we will be very busy in the window this summer. Supporters are getting all excited still believing that finally Arsenal are going to take the EPL seriously next season. Both men have mentioned how poor we were in the […]
It all gets going: 13th July our new season gets under way, it all begins in Malaysia, our first pre-season fixture. Three days later we play Hangzhou Greentown. Then we are off to Germany to play ‘The Billy Goats’, aka FC Cologne on the 23rd July before returning home to host The Emirates Cup which […]
Big Sol has been talking about who he thinks Arsene Wenger needs to sign he said: He’s definitely got to get a goalkeeper and get someone in the back line. The centre-backs at the club are good footballers. It’s just transferring that into consistency, every game demands different things from each player. So he might […]
Going on from Steve’s post yesterday about what goes on in the coaching department at our club, there is one thing that really narks me about how we play.. The opposition get a corner, every man and his dog is back defending and I mean every player. Robin, Theo and Nikki all go back to […]
While things are relatively quiet and before the big news were all expecting is announced, I wanted to run this past you to see if this make sense to you all? I have been thinking quite a lot about our football team and have tried to look at as many angles as I can, hoping […]
