People always say the same thing about their clubs, and now it’s our turn. “There will still be an Arsenal after Wenger.” Those who have been a proud part of the ‘Wenger out’ brigade find it particularly easy to utter such a phrase. It also seems to come easier to those older fans that have known many managers over the ...

I’m not going to talk much about the Villa game as we’ve all done enough of that, but what I am going to talk about is Arsene, Arsenal and the mess we have found ourselves in. In the next paragraph Tottenham will be discussed, so there’s your warning. EARLY in the summer Spurs recruited Franco Baldini to assist the pro-active ...

Arsene Wenger said on Friday if we brought him a player that would improve the squad then he would look at them (with the intention to sign), so I did. I think we need a goalkeeper, right-back, centre-back, defensive midfielder, winger and striker. Here’s the list. Asmir Begović – 26 years old – Goalkeeper – £15million Positives: Would improve the ...

It’s Monday the 12th of August and my weekly season review begins without any stellar signing to discuss. Hopefully by my next entry that will be different. Forget the transfer tirade (or not) Arsenal ran out 3-1 winners against Man City in Helsinki on Saturday – albeit in a friendly, that would have given then team some needed confidence going ...

To begin proceedings, I want to quickly summarise my feelings on Arsenal and Liverpool, and why ultimately, Suarez is better off with us. I’m sorry Liverpool fans, this isn’t an unprovoked, cheap shot, it’s been building. Some of you have become very hostile on Twitter, and it bothers me. I don’t remember a time when so many Liverpool fans carried ...

It has been confirmed that Arsenal have had a bid somewhere in the region of £30million for Suarez rejected, Brendan Rodgers himself has discussed it. Since that initial bid, nothing else of any certainty seems to have happened. Whether or not Arsenal will land Suarez is yet to be seen, with Liverpool’s valuation of the striker seemingly rising by the ...

Arsenal could be about to step up their interest in signing Wayne Rooney after the player revealed he was confused and angry following David Moyes’ comments about the England striker being a back up to Robin van Persie. The comments have left Wayne feeling as valued as a squad player and he wants to be the star. With two years ...

It’s the transfer window and it is widely accepted that Arsenal need to improve the spine of the team. However I’m growing tired of seeing the club linked to every striker, centre-back, keeper and central midfielder on the planet. This article is called ‘more than just a position’ and I will look at what types and styles of players I ...

After watching some of the best collective performances this year with Bayern Munich’s and Brazil’s total pressing whilst keeping a disciplinary structure and beating arguably one of the most memorable teams the world has ever seen – both Barcelona and Spain – the defeated Spaniards came unstuck against the perfectly set 4-2-3-1 formation that their opposition used. Arsenal have used ...

Growing up, the Arsenal I knew was a successful, cup winning, and league title challenging team of Invincibles. By the time I’d reached the ripe old age of 18 and football banter at school had transfigured to insightful discussions at the pub, Arsenal were well in to their 8-year baron run. I could not boast of the silverware we held ...
