“Lies, damned lies, and statistics”

This is a phrase describing the persuasive power of numbers, particularly the use of statistics to bolster weak arguments. It is also sometimes colloquially used to cast doubt upon statistics used to prove an opponent’s point. The term was popula…

Quick Thoughts On QPR And Fulham

I want to start by wishing everyone a very happy new year full of peace and contentment. My trip has been a real delight and by visiting town like Amherst and Northampton in Massachusetts I’ve been reacquainted with the meaning of the words Quain…

New Year Resolution?

I’m not feeling at all witty this morning and the things I have to say are mostly obvious and not earth shatteringly different. What I want to know most of all is what on earth happened in our dressing room at half-time yesterday? We had played a…

Arsenal – Wolves: Let’s Keep Things in Perspective

So we lost two valuable home-points today against lowly placed Wolves, and now we are all feeling down? Man City drew against West Brom and Liverpool could not kill off Blackburn yesterday, and neither could Chelsea see-off Fulham. I am as disappointed…

Arsenal 1 – 1 Wolves: Match Thoughts And Individual Analysis

The second half onslaught was exhilarating but not quite enough to regain the two points that another freakish goal had taken away. Arsene did rotate some of the players. Djourou came in for Coquelin, Rosicky for Ramsey, and Benayoun for Walcott. It wa…

Seasons Greetings

Who is Arsenal’s Best Centre Back? (Poll)

When was the last time you heard the words “Wenger must buy” followed by any of the following: Jagielka, Cahill, Samba, Hangeland? It seems only weeks ago that were as many headlines linking us with other clubs’  defenders as there are stars…

Thoughts On Tactics And Starting Eleven Against Aston Villa

Four games in the next 13 days should give Arsenal sufficient opportunity to bounce back from the recent disheartening defeat against the League leaders. Given the state of injuries in defence though, Arsene will have to take things game by game. There…
