As I woke at 6AM to the familiar sound of my alarm Thursday morning, a beaming smile appeared on my face and it was not solely because of the superb victory that sent us through to the Champions League knock out stages the evening before, nor had I rolled over to discover that Nicole Scherzinger […]
We travel to Villa Park to take on Remi Garde’s Aston Villa and, needless to say, three points is the acceptable result. After a downright disastrous November we’ve only recently notched our first league win (in 4 games) and considering how hard of a January we are about to have, picking up as many points […]
Arsenal visit Villa Park on Sunday chasing a perfect week to kick off the busy December period. Yes, beating two teams fighting for relegation and sneaking into the Champions League last 16 shouldn’t constitute what you’d a call a perfect week for a team aiming to be crowned champions but given all that transpired during […]
Hello. . I have waited until some of the euphoria following the Olympiakos match has died down before composing a suitable comment. . In a previous comment I criticised AW and I included a comment that Arteta should not be considered as a player any longer. I also said that Flamini and Campbell were not […]
I have a strange emotional state before games: I rarely hope for the best or dread the worst. On Twitter, maybe. Sometimes (even quite often) you can see me putting on a brave face, while expressing full confidence the Gunners can do the job, whatever the difficulty of it. Occasionally you can see me moaning […]
I’m back! Did you miss me? I’ve had a pretty busy November, so I didn’t have much time to blog. Arsenal played a number of matches over the month, but didn’t have much time to play well, with the club dropping a number of points and having a few poor results. I’m now going to […]
I am right in the middle of my end of term exams and Uni at the moment and they are pretty important. So watching Arsenal in the Champions League at 1.15 in the middle of the might over here the day before an exam probably wasn’t the thing to do. Yeah right. I stole wifi […]
So happy that Oli is getting shown some love. He’s a desperately under-rated player. It’s a classic example of being so blinded by what you WANT, that you can’t see what you HAVE. Despite all the negative attention, the criticism, the injuries and the impossible expectation – Olivier believed in himself and gave us a […]
Have you ever had that moment in your life where it takes an incident – big or small – to wake up a dormant belief within you? This happened to me last week. I was walking down the street and saw a few kids, hardly between 8-10 years of age, hanging around outside their apartment […]
I was reading “Invincible” by Amy Lawrence last night, I read the whole book in one go because I simply couldn’t stop turning one page after another: the feeling of pride was overwhelming, as was the amount of details given away by Amy. The importance of chemistry in the building of a team, the innovations […]
