Emmanuel Adebayor, ex Arsenal centre forward was sold by us to Manchester City for a staggering amount of money. Once he had gone he told all that he never wanted to leave us but he did feel loved by his new set of fans. He started well for his new club but it was clear […]
Morning all, I was going through the blogs the other day and came across a comment that made me take heed, a simple little comment that can shed a little bit of light on to our youngsters inability to defend tackle and show a little bottle. I sat there and read this piece two or […]
I’m not suggesting for one minute he will or that I want him to but if he did: Many fans would smile, many would be pretty cheesed off and some I am sure will wonder what on earth will happen now at our club. I’m still of the opinion he needs to be given just […]
Morning all, It’s blatantly obvious to anyone that cares, Arsenal Football Club cannot defend set pieces. It hurts me to say this but facts are facts and Mr ‘Arsene Marmite’ is not known for his defensive coaching skills and never will be. If we were to ever be in a position to acquire a defender […]
Said “illusion” being, of course, the possibility that we could still win the league. Our defeat this afternoon, coupled with Manchester United’s victory of Chelsea a couple of hours later put us 9 points adrift, with only six left to play for – so the best we can now finish is three points off the […]
No matter what happens I have to give him at least four weeks’ holiday. The [Under-21] tournament finishes at the end of June so he won’t come back until the end of July. That means he will not be ready to play at the start of August or maybe at the beginning of September. That […]
I read an article in The Daily Telegraph the other day, it was dated the 30th April and the author, Henry Winter had a few things to say about our frailties. At the time of the article being written we had played ten games since the massive loss at Wembley, we had also been knocked […]
Morning all, It’s the time of the season that seems to come round every year and it’s usually just after Cesc Fabregas has his birthday. For many people its Easter, Christmas, Bank Holidays but in this case its Cesc Fabregas Day. Even before the season is over, speculation about our fine Captain begins and in […]
Going on from the talk about who should play at which level for their country, I was looking around to see who from our club is making an impact at under 17 level. One name stood out and that was Kyle Ebecilio, Dutch Number 6 below. ( That was my number in my playing days […]
Our young Englishman, Jack Wilshere is just 19 years old; he has played in forty-five league games for us and has been involved in three matches for the England first team in 2011. Forty eight games in ten months is a lot to ask of a lad whose bones are still growing! Now he has […]
Firstly I just want to pass on my condolences to the family of Sir Henry Cooper who passed away early yesterday morning aged 76. The world of Sport and Boxing in particular has lost a wonderful man – RIP Big Fella…. On to todays fun story which no doubt some will fail to see adds […]
Flash back to December 27, 2010. We were in the midst of a wretched winless run against Chelsea when they visited the Emirates looking for their customary three points. We took the pitch well and truly up for that one, and even though we had to wait until almost halftime to score our first goal […]
