Match Preview: Arsenal v Manchester United; Premier League Match Day 22

This is painful. There used to be a time when Arsenal v Manchester United was the marquee matchup. Every season. All the time. When these two teams met in the past it was sure to be a legendary encounter with always some interesting set to happen. Sinc…

I have some questions, and I’m scared that the answer is: GAME OVER.

The idea for this piece came from reading over an old one, the defeat against Swansea, and the fact that other clubs are bolstering their squads, unlike us. There are several questions going through my mind, the general thought being: what if we didn

We’ve had a nice big dose of Arsene Wenger’s rescue remedy. But where do we go from here?

Joint posting by DAG and Myles J Burrell. There isn’t a lot anyone can say about yesterday apart from “utter disappointment.” Despite our previous run that saw us move from 17th to 4th our squad isn’t as strong as it should be for a club that c…

Match Preview: Arsenal v Swansea; Premier League Match Day 21

The euphoria of the FA Cup win is over. It’s been some time since our last league match but at least to me the reality of the loss is still there. And it doesn’t get any easier this week with our away trip to Swansea.

A-Z of why the Transfer Window is annoying.

I dislike the transfer window because it’s a load of rubbish, especially if you’re an Arsenal fan. And what makes it worse are those delinquents who pretend they’re “in the know” (ITK) even though it’s just some greasy nerd behind a compute…

Form is Temporary. Class is Permanent. Thierry Henry Returns In Style

It was in a word – surreal. As if Thierry Henry and Arsene Wenger conspired to contrive the whole thing. They would set to have the team pass around Leeds all day with little chances here and there that would frustrate the faithful who would then clamo…

Match Preview FA Cup 3rd Round: Arsenal v Leeds United

Following with the theme of “What is Old is New,” and so shortly after Arsenal have agreed to a loan deal that brings legendary Gunner Thierry Henry back to the red and white, Arsene Wenger’s boys face off against Leeds United in the 3rd round of the F…

Long Live King Henry II – Thierry Henry Returns to Arsenal: Confirmed

In a move that we all knew about and seems much less surprising given some of Wenger’s previous stop-gap moves, Thierry Henry has come back to Arsenal to fill in for the missing Gervinho and Marouane Chamakh who will depart for ACoN duty. Henry will we…

One step forward, two steps back, the dichotomy of a weekend with Arsenal

Well, I certainly didn’t see this coming. Not utter capitulation on this scale. But when you look at the seocnd half of yesterday’s match that is what happened. We absolutely folded under a lesser team.

Match Preview: Arsenal v Fulham: EPL Match Day 20

Arsenal kick-off the new year as the last game of the day. A win at Craven Cottage would see them move throught he tricky fixtures undefeated and taking 7 from 9. A win also would (for a short time at least) move the Gunners level with Spurs on points….

Happy New Year, Happy New Look

Match Preview: Arsenal v QPR; EPL Match Day 19

It goes without saying – anything less than 3 points will draw some serious question marks over our ability to sustain a challenge for the top 4. Good thing for Arsenal is that they face off against QPR, a team that can’t seem to keep opponents from s…

The Return of the King? Why Arsenal’s move for Henry concerns me.

What I am about to write is going to seem like sacrilege to alot of Gooners. But as I have thought about this since the rumors started popping up, I am convinced that Thierry Henry is not the answer to our lack of strikers and impending ACoN departures.

Is there still a chance for Chelsea?

There has been a lot of talk over the last few weeks that Chelsea aren’t in with a chance of the Premier League trophy this season and maybe not in with a top 3 place either, this speculation was heightened after the … Continue reading &#…

Arsenal v Wolves or The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Let’s be honest shall we? Arsenal have improved. We have more grit and desire and that soft underbelly we are always accused of having seems to have jettisoned off to Manchester City or Barcelona depending on your perspective. But while we look better …

Match Preview: Arsenal v Wolverhampton Wanderers: EPL Match Day 18

Gary Neville: Single-handedly making punditry bearable (again?)

Back in February 2011, the Guardian’s ‘The Gallery’ humorously predicted Gary Neville’s next career direction in response to the news of his imminent retirement. Unfortunately, he became neither a Tellytubby or an Egyptian rebel – instead, replacing Andy Gray as the man tasked with analysing games for Sky Sports; and, boy, has he done it well. With his somewhat-oversized [...]

Match Preview: Arsenal v Manchester City; EPL Match Day 15

There are so many witty titles for this clash between Arsenal and Manchester City I feel bad not leading with one of them. So in order to get them out of the way let me dispense with them right now – it is the Have’s vs the Have Nots. The money vs the …
