THE STORY OF ‘SHOTS TAKEN’

Posted by & filed under News Review.

Ugh, trying to be creative during a dead week is… tough. How about a table? Arsenal rank 10th in the league for shots on goal according to the Premier League data. We’ve had 92 shots across 7 games. That’s 13 a game. Now, there’s a little bit of misleading context there. We’ve played City and… Read more »

PHASE 2 LEARNINGS

Posted by & filed under News Review.

Welcome to Monday precious ones. It’s international break. Kill me. Honestly, why do we need so many of these? Can you beleive Mr Wenger would ideally like this period to be AN ENTIRE MONTH OF FOOTBALL. Honestly, he fell off so hard. I cannot believe that all that good work he did managing his reputation,… Read more »

DRAB BRIGHTON PERFORMANCE YIELDS A SOLID POINT

Posted by & filed under News Review.

Arsenal escaped Brighton with a point. I’m not sure if I’d call it a lucky point, Brighton managed 2 shots on target all game, but I would call it undeserved because Arsenal really weren’t at the races.

TRUSTING THE RECRUITMENT MACHINE

Posted by & filed under News Review.

Bad news on the injury front. Ironman Granit Xhaka is out for 3 months. Whatever you think about him, that is a massive issue for Arsenal because it depletes us of reliable experience and it means we’re a little closer to a 3 month Mo Elneny residency in our midfield. It’s a killer as well… Read more »

JOY JOY JOY

Posted by & filed under News Review.

I spent the day listening to all the great podcasts, reading all the blogs, and even venturing over to some Spurs Youtubers that were most entertaining. ‘WE PLAY LIKE BAGEL FC, FAM’ one of my favourite lines. I particularly loved The Arsenal Vision Podcast opening statements, do check them out. Everyone seems to have bought… Read more »
