Last night I had a funky old dream. I dreamt that I was having dinner with Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang. He was in fine form having just bagged the winning goal against Aston Villa during the day, but annoyingly I wasn't alone to just chat foot all with him. A load of work colleagues were there and [...]
Villa at home at 4.30pm this Sunday afternoon represents an opportunity for Unai Emery and his players to show that we're back on the 'winning wagon'. We won in midweek against Frankfurt but building momentum needs a series of wins together and with United away coming up next weekend we really can't afford to be [...]
Morning folks and welcome to another weekend. This weekend sees us play at home to Aston Villa and having faced 55 shots on our goal in the last two games, I'm sure Bernd Leno is hopeful for a quieter afternoon tomorrow. We are too open, giving up too many opportunities, we are behaving naively at [...]
In this season of the bizarre and ridiculous, perhaps it was most fitting that on the final day an Arsenal team all had written off as quite poor, took one final step upwards in the league to leapfrog the Spuds by hammering Villa. In return, Newcastle decided to finally show up for their fans, giving [...]
So here we are at last. It's the final game of the 2015/16 season and what started out as one in which I thought we really would win the league this year, petered out as it usually does for Arsenal after Christmas. Our inconsistency has cost us and our injury problems have crippled us, but [...]
Well then, what shall we talk about today, then? Maybe what Arsene said during his presser yesterday? Oh, alright then. Team news is that Mesut is back and after looking like he was going to smash Henry's record, he still needs two more assists just to equal it. It's not been from the want of [...]
I'm really liking the weekend's of football action in which we win, other teams at the top of the division drop points and momentum and high morale seem to be with us. I dared not to say it pre-game yesterday, but Aston Villa were the perfect team for us to play after a hard-earned qualification [...]
Eugh...Christmas two-day benders...fun at the time but when you eventually wake up to smell the coffee, it ain't great, is it? That's where I'm at this morning, but if there's anything that can stir me from a day under the duvet, it's The Arsenal. A 1.30pm kick off away to Aston Villa on a weekend [...]
There's so much to go through today, I don't even know where to start! How about the revelation that Cech's super-awesomeness and ability to make save-after-save appears to be entirely down to Rock Band, for which I'm sure the good folks at EA are delighted with, as they now have an angle for marketing in [...]
Has there ever been a more comfortable and one-sided final? Have we ever seen Arsenal do it the easy away in a big game, with such verve and vigour? Does this happen to us? Arsenal are supposed to make our lives difficult, aren't they? Apparently not. Apparently there is an 'easy way' and all we [...]
