Aalap: Why doesn’t Wenger play Vela?
Vela’s a stand up fella!! The ever smiling Carlos is somewhat of a celebrity around the Spanish city of San Sebastian these days. His tantalising reverse overhead kick led to an unlikely victory against the newly rich Malaga. This amazing feat instan…
Surely Carlos Vela would be better than Chamakh or Bendtner?

To boo or not to boo?
Arsenal 1 – 1 New York Red Bulls: Emirates Cup It’s pretty sad really looking at Arsenal players got booed by their own fans in yesterday’s match against New York Red Bulls. I have never heard any other teams got the jeers from the fans in a friendly match. They were not supposed to do that to the team. That would be a bad experience to the young players like Afobe or Bartley. Nevertheless, I [...]
What do Arsenal defenders practice in training?
Arsenal 2 – 2 Boca Juniors: Emirates Cup After leading 2-0 and drawing in the end, Arsenal fans were told by Wenger to be “relaxed”. I don’t know how Arsenal fans should be relaxed after watching the defenders keep making the silly mistakes over and over again. I always wonder what our defenders do in training.
