It’s only a few days before we kick off vs. Man City. And Guardiola and his former assistant Arteta will face off to boot. Let’s not forget that both Pep and Arteta had varying experiences during the pandemic/lockdown. Pep sadly lost his mother, and Mikel had the actual virus. We could also meet in the […]
Arsenal will be playing Manchester City on June 17 to kick off the Premier League’s frantic attempt to complete the 2019/20 season before August 2nd. Manchester City will host Arsenal at a neutral venue – in all likelihood one of these stadiums supposedly in contention: Brighton (The Amex), Southampton (St. Mary’s), West Ham (London Stadium), […]
It has certainly been a season for upheaval for Arsenal and although the decision to sack Unai Emery can be viewed as somewhat harsh, the recent evidence under his replacement is starting to look rather impressive. That’s because, under the stewardship of Mikel Arteta, the Gunners seem to be firing once again and although this […]
Whilst our good friends are in third place, I think it’s unrealistic that they will win the league. This isn’t just rivalry talking but they’re not as good as Liverpool and City. Besides, Mr. Pochettino doesn’t like winning trophies, and they may not even open their ground this season. Liverpool hasn’t won the Premier League, […]
I asked a few of the Gunners Town writers to give me their Top 6 predictions for the Premier League season 18/19. Obviously the transfer window is still open and things could change – but the one thing about the Premier League is that things are ALWAYS changing:. injuries, meltdowns, surprise losses… It’s a rollercoaster […]
They hang over us like a cloak of impending doom: big games against our top-of-the-table rivals which have given Gooners little joy in recent years. Many cite the reasons for our shortcomings as style of play only being conducive to beating bottom half teams, lack of tactical flexibility, or even lack of overall quality/team depth. […]
Premier League Season Preview 2017/18 So the new season is but days away, it feels both an age away but also just like yesterday that Arsenal lit Wembley up during the epic curtain closer of the FA cup final. There are so many changes in football this coming season, with many clubs getting new managers […]
Arsenal is in an awful place – there is no argument about that. For this piece I’m going to look past contract negotiations, locker room disharmony and public displays of protest in favor of statistics. Statistics that I hope will shed light on the issues my eyes have been telling me are the two biggest […]
I’m really not kidding with that title. I had not written much about Arsenal recently, because there was not a lot to complain about from my side. Ramsey was injured (always a positive for me when he doesn’t play) and the team looked like they were capable of grinding out results against most teams, aside […]
It’s been almost two weeks since we supposedly activated the release clause in Jamie Vardy’s Leicester City contract and the speculation has become increasingly tiresome. In the days that followed our alleged bid for Vardy, news also broke of Manchester City reportedly attempting to agree a deal for Borussia Dortmund’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The reaction to […]
