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 [...]

Swansea away: we used to be beautifully flawed, now we’re just flawed

I was going to start today by saying something like "where do I even start?" but this morning after yet another pathetic Arsenal display - the type of away display performance we've seen all season from this ailing team - I think I'll just throw up some of the utterly embarrassing stats that I've seen [...]

Swansea preview: desperate for an early goal

The build up to tonight's league encounter with Swansea may be dominated by a certain player coming in from Dortmund and a certain handsome Arsenal player being an option for that most horrid of clubs Chelski, but I'm preferring to focus on the reason we are here today, which is the stuff that's played on [...]

Lacazette to relish Mkhi and Ozil behind him?

Howdy all and welcome to a mid season Saturday with absolutely no prospect of Arsenal on the horizon and actually, having said yesterday that I'm kind of ok with it given we're going to Wembley, I'd still rather it was us away to Hull and not Forest. That kind of sucks. But what's done is [...]

Wembley date, softens the FA cup exit; Auba be done before Swansea?

With no game this weekend due to the acrimonious exit from the FA Cup at the hands of Nottingham Forest, this weekend represents a moment in time whereby Arsenal fans are forced to look on in bittnerness as the other top clubs in England waltz through to the fifth round, having been handed easy ties [...]

The new League Cup approach – will it work tonight?

I find tonights League Cup encounter with Chelski an intriguing one. A competition that Arsène has historically been such an advocate of blooding young players in, even to the extent of getting to a final and prioritising development over giving the club the best possibility of a trophy, has this season seen a change of [...]

The majesty of Özil putting Palace to the sword

If you're going to describe the perfect start to a football match then you'd pretty much just re-run the opening 30 minutes of yesterday's win against Crystal Palace. It was goals, goals, goals. And I loved it. The nerves were there for all to see pre match and as I sunk a few pints round [...]

Palace preview: High tempo, slick passing and one final Alexis game?

Happy match day goners. But will it be come 5pm? Will we have something to smile about or will it be more exasperation caused by yet another display in which the selected XI in red shirts toil over their goalscoring attempts as Crystal Palace aim to be tough to break down and hit us quick [...]

The Arsenal good news came yesterday – but transfers got in the way

Here we are at the end of a week in which we've lost our longest servant, are in the verge of losing arguably our best player (although that's debatable this season), still have to see any large-value replacement come in but could be on the verge of at least two very exciting transfers. It's quite [...]

The age of Theo is gone, will Aubameyang be next?

Here endeth 'The Age of Theo' and with it, one of the last surviving players to go into the social media proclaimed 'Banter Era' and come out the other side into 'The Declining Era', where we now find ourselves. His move to Everton was ratified and made official yesterday with the usual horrific 'new signing [...]
