After the dropped points against Fulham, there was a midweek rest for some of our key players. Against Fulham, our team looked absolutely knackered. And what a difference a week’s rest makes to the performance. Yesterday, our players looked much better all round, in attack and in defence. The line up was: Szcznesy Koscielny – [...]

I’ve been around for long enough to remember when the club was first formed, but on the 1st December 1886, a special something was created – the Arsenal – and 125 years later, the club is one of the most recognisable footballing brands in the world… Happy 125th Birthday Arsenal! Back to the squad now [...]
Morning Gooners, On paper and in the bank Arsenal faced an extremely tough challenge in the quarter final’s of the Carling cup against Man $ity. The night started with a minute’s silence / appreciation for the late and great Gary Speed. He never played for us, I’m not Welsh but I really liked Gary Speed as [...]
*sigh* I should mention that I didn’t watch or listen to the match, neither did I follow it live on twitter, although I followed the BBC live text somewhat. I’ve just watched MotD highlights, so at the moment, that’s all I’ve got to work on, so apologies if I miss anything glaringly obvious, or if [...]
Arsenal vs Fulham on Saturday, 26 November 2011 17:30 Boys & girls, ladies & gentlemen… we are about to play Fulham at the Emirates, which, if we won the game, could see us jump into the top four. With Man United playing Newcastle and Liverpool playing Man City, some one up there is going to drop [...]
Morning Folks… 2-1 to the Arsenal, Van Persie scores two… three points on the board, now top of the group with 11 points and a game to go. This is what we call “job done”… Job done to the point where we can send out the youth to Greece in the final game, win, lose [...]
Morning Gooners, The champions league is back and it’s a big match day too. At stake tonight is qualification to the knockout stage and a win would mean we go through top of our group. You’d like to think we’ve learnt our lesson from last year about why topping the group is slightly advantageous. The [...]
Fog is horrible. Well, fog is something that you don’t really care for, don’t really have a clue why people fuss about it or why it even exists. That is, until you get stuck at an airport for 6 hours waiting for a 40 minute flight from Paris to London… Apart from a horrible time [...]
Mr Arsenal, Thierry Henry is back training with us. Seeing the old boy is such a reassuring sight – he’s such a legend, it’s unbelievable – and seeing him back in training seems so right. I do hope he has a future at the club when he retires from football – out of all the [...]
Morning Gooners, Interlull break has left me bored tired and craving proper football. I miss the team news, I miss the need to double check my fantasy league team, I miss reading Mark Lawerenson’s almost never correct predictions on BBC Sport, I miss checking what black players John Terry will have to face the wrath [...]
Morning All… Another day closer to the Norwich game, but still a round of International football to go, with 8 games to bite our nails over, hoping that none of our players get injured. As you already probably know, Van Persie has not been risked by the Dutch manager and instead has returned back to [...]
