Well now, none of us truly believed that a game at home against Everton, did we? I mean this is The Arsenal, we never make it easy for ourselves, so we were always going to have a bit of nail biting that needed to be done.  It was a cagey affair from the off. From [...]

Everton preview: the game will be won out wide

Hello again my fellow Arsenal friends. I hope this Saturday finds you well? Are you excited for today's game? I know I am. I'm excited because Arsenal currently have their tails up and performances have been very good both defensively and offensively of late. We'll need to have another very high level of intensity and [...]

Arsenal is a rollercoaster, but would you prefer a monorail?

It's Thursday, I have an annoying work presentation to contend with, but all that is ringing in between my ears are the sights and sounds of The Arsenal. That's what a well-earned victory against one of the best three teams in the world will give you. But more than that, it gives you something else, [...]

Malaise for many, but Champions League success still burns for this Arsenal fan

A night under the lights to save our Champions League season against the German champions and recent history tormentors. What more could you ask for on a random Tuesday in October? It wasn't meant to be this way. We were supposed to have collected six points and be looking like a draw in one of [...]

Clarity of mind on tomorrow nights task for Arsenal

Ahh Monday's, the vindictive and evil brother of the lethargic Sunday, how much more tolerable you seem to be when The Arsenal have had a good game. I suppose, given that you are also followed by a matchday Tuesday as well, that I should find you a little bit more agreeable.  It almost feels like [...]

Majestic Mesut, awesome Aaron and super Sanchez down Watford

Well didn't that all go according to plan, eh?  As I suspected yesterday, Watford approached the game with the caution and solidity that you'd expect from a newly promoted side with a reputation building for compact defending and long balls to bring out of defence, so perhaps it was inevitable that the first half was [...]

Expect frustration at Watford, but we need to start a title run now

The one positive I will say that comes out of the international breaks that punctuate each season, is that when an Arsenal match day comes around, you learn to appreciate it more. That's how I'm feeling today, with the Watford game just hours away, knowing that soon I'll get the excited feeling of an Arsenal [...]

Dividends, desperation (Jose) and derbies (of the Watford variety)

Quite a lot to get through, after an eventful day yesterday, eh? First and foremost, the AGM and I'll make this relatively brief because a) I wasn't there, and b) it has precious little to do with what is on the pitch and more about what is happening in the boardroom. Or not happening, apparently, [...]

Ox needs one form game, Gibbs needs a run and I need real football

I think it's safe to come out now, isn't it, after all the international friendlies and Euro qualifiers are done right? I took the horrendous decision to watch the majority of a disjointed and unimportant dead rubber between England and the might that is Lithuania, which is two hours of my life I'll never get [...]
