Morning folks. Let's start with some positive news this morning, shall we? And that news was thew confirmation that Flo Balogun has signed a new deal with the club that keeps him at The Arsenal until 2025. It is a deal that four or five months ago not many of us thought would happen and [...]

Is Thierry’s fast track good for Arsenal?

So it seems there is so little to talk about when it comes to The Arsenal this morning, that all I really have to peruse over for my morning bowl of Frosties is a story emerging that Thierry Henry is about to take the reigns at Monaco, after Jardim was sacked, with Monaco currently 18th [...]

“Is Watford coming out for a kickabout?” And Emery’s pressing needs

With this weird period of time in the middle of pre season that we find ourselves in, it feels very strange to not be looking at a friendly or something going on at The Arsenal this weekend. It's a bit of a 'lull within a lull' for us. There aren't any games played until the [...]

It’s ‘Ex-pro two-penneth’ week for Arsenal

Morning folks. We're two days down from the latest Arsenal farce in the shape of the Brighton result, with two days between us and the next potential melt down on the pitch from a collective of Arsenal players with no confidence or belief. I guess you could call this the eye of the storm? The [...]

The Great Arsenal Cull of 2018

The last Arsenal 'shake up' occurred after the abomination of a defeat to United back in 2011, when Arsène finally admitted in August that the team needed a heck of an overhaul to even get close to competing for top four that he brought in Big Per, Arteta, Benayoun and Andre Santos as the window [...]

Arsène stands firm; Thierry relived

It should be a relatively quiet one today, because I'm imagining that the team will be enroute back to the UK to prepare for domestic friendlies before the season opener in the glorified friendly against the chavs.  I can't see this blog last too long today either, because quite frankly I'm almost all out of [...]

Thierry won’t happen. Yet.

On Sunday I saw the reports about Thierry Henry and the rumoured interest in him to be the next Arsenal manager, with bookies slashing the odds, seemingly overnight. I thought about writing about it yesterday as some sort of footnote, but didn't bother because I thought it would be just one of the gutter press' [...]

Arsenal haven’t counter-punched for years

On a WhatsApp Arsenal group I'm part of there was a discussion yesterday about whether Liverpool getting a tonking by Leicester - who hadn't scored in 2017 before yesterday - would be a good thing for Arsenal or not. Good question, and not one we'll know until we rock up at Anfield next Saturday evening. [...]

Henry – Every story leads to Wenger-based battle lines

By |2017-05-19T20:08:17+01:00July 13th, 2016|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Arsene Wenger, Rant|1 Comment

When I saw the very public way in which the whole 'Thierry Henry coaching at Arsenal' announcement came out yesterday, I couldn't help but think that it seemed very 'un-Arsenal' in terms of the public nature of it all. There were rumours about the decision to have Henry as a coach being vetoed by Arsène, [...]
