Quick post this morning to say HAPPY CHRISTMAS/HOLIDAYS/TUESDAY… whatever you’re doing, a big thanks to all of you that read this year.
BIG game tomorrow against Brighton away @ 17:15, a very important 3 points if you don’t rate our defence against Liverpool. Also, no injuries, please.
Anyway, more thoughts tomorrow morning. Have a great day, with big love from the Le Grove community x

Merry Christmas legrovers.
Hope we’re talking about much better developments and hopefully a major trophy in the club’s cabinet by this time next year.
Have fun everyone.
Merry Christmas to all grovers……merry Xmas to you Marko…to you Pierre…..and to you Pedro.
Merry Christmas once again lads/gals
Merry Christmas to everyone. Hope you guys are having good time no matter where you are. Merry Christmas Pedrito!
Merry Christmas. Calero in London is interesting. His low buy out clause would suit Arsenal, the Walmart level Christmas sale. I watched his game vs Athletic Club and was surprised how ‘slight’ he is. Not tall, not big, not particularly fast. Ok ball playing. So Calero turned pro @ 22 (now 23). A late debut these days? If genuine, would be a cheap buy for coverage. Hope Sven et al know something we don’t. Don’t see us spending big (30/40m top) at all, esp if we have nothing valuable to sell and offset. With such a depleted squad, it’d be… Read more »
Merry Xmas all.
You’re all legends. Apart from Receding, Charlie & Pierre…..who are probably arguing with Santa as we speak.
Gambon
Comedian ain’t your gig, stick to spreadsheets and temper tantrums when you’re done with the mince pies
Once more with feeling..
Happy Christmas all who read/write on this blog, and especially the man who provides the platform for us to do so. Enjoy, be merry, and stay the fuck out the ER.. cheers
Merry Christmas, all.

Merry Christmas Groovers!
Let’s hope that Ozil is at home pumping weights ready for the 2nd half of the season ….just remember this
” we’ve got Ozil, Mesut Ozil , I just don’t think you understand ”
Feliz Navidad le grovellers..
Merry Christmas lads.
Christmas day a time spent being happy with the family and thankful and the first thing Pierre does is make a comment on Ozil. Well at least we know where your priorities and head is at you little freak.
Merry xmas to y’all folks..
Enjoy the food, celebrate and take proper rest..
What is Christmas?
Merry Christmas.
It’s been a great 12 months for Arsenal, let’s hope for even better things in the future and that Santa brings us some late gifts in January.
Merry Xmas le groovers and to Gazidis. Please come and buy Ramsey in January. I’d be a good deal.
After all, you sanctioned the Sanogo deal
Merry Christmas everyone! Hope you have a great holiday with your loved ones
Merry Christmas Arsene Wenger
Thanks for leaving

Merry christmas from Arkansas to all gunner fans…looking forward to hopefully the US tour being talked about coming to fruition so hopefully Chitown or Dallas…oh yeh world peace to…and more points…CL would be nice…with a bow on it!!
Happy Christmas LG.

Merry Christmas.
Merry Christmas to all Le Grovers.
Hope you all have a funfilled day with friends and most especially Family.
Enjoy ya’ll.
I am American mom with an English step-son Gooner. I am trying to better understand football. We were at the Burnley game. Can anyone comment on my questions please? Thank you in advance. – Why were so many posters negative about AMN? To my (inexperienced) eye he seemed to cause a lot of trouble for Burnley when he brought the ball up the right wing and into their half/penalty box? – Was Ozil’s contribution to two of the goals not sufficient to warrant praise because of his otherwise lack of impact on the game? – Guendouzi seemed always ready to… Read more »
GOH became a father today on this most holiest of days. That means either he (baby) is the messiah or I am god. I’ll go with the latter.
GOH very much out. Peace.
May your deity of personal preference (mine is Bacchus) pour love and life into you and yours this solstice season.
Happy Basquemass ladies and gentlemen and inbetweeners of Me Grove.
GOH congrats- sure he will become a gunner also
Just finished the washing up?
Merry XMas to all and good health.
Emery Xmas and a happy Unai year to one and all..
Congrats GoH
Congrats GOH
Merry Christmas, everyone. Good health and many blessings to you and all your loved ones.
Congrats GOH!!
GOH
Congrats on the birth of your son.
God? Nah,
Messiah? Dear god no!
Wise man? That’s really stretching it.
Cool funny nuts dude? Strong possibility.
Enjoy Guns they grow up very fast and probably means you’ll be far too tired and busy to post here for the next year or 2.
Ah the peace & sanity…………
I know I’m a day late but merry Christmas I the le grove family. I know we all have our differences but I regard you all as my “internet” friends 😛
I am sadly working on Christmas and New year’s after a long long time. It feels weird. But I do have a date on new year’s, hope that more than makes up for it.
Just hope she isn’t shit faced when we meet 🙂
Gonsterous
Hope you score on New Year’s eve: about time you popped your cherry.
GOH
Congrats man.
Make sure his middl name is “Wenger”.
Don’t worry Tony, I know where to put it. Stick em with the pointy end and more GoT references 🙂
Cool Gons – tab ‘A’ goes in slot ‘B’
Go for an extra time finish and she’ll be impressed.
Some hedlines from the media rumours: Ramsey ‘wants Juventus move’ ‘Aaron Ramsey in talks with Juventus over £9million a year deal’ ‘Ozil tracked by Turkish club, Instanbul Basaksehir president Goksel Gumusdag has admitted he “would do anything” to sign Mesut Ozil if the midfielder leave Arsenal in January.’ Arsenal will have to break record for Pepe Arsenal will have to break their transfer record to sign Nicolas Pepe say Telefoot. Lille want £72m for the 23-year-old Ivory Coast winger. ‘Arsenal to move for Navas?’ ‘It’s claimed Madrid want around £12million for him ‘ ‘Arsenal and Everton both keen on Oxford… Read more »
Brighton will try to emulate Saints by hitting high ball s to the box.
They will get physical as well. I just hope Arsenal will fight fire
with fire instead of giving way or add oil.
Arsenal always have aproblem beating lowly teams.Hopefully
they can get the 3 points and will elect to run and shoot on sight.
That would be a change from Wengers perennial passing game.
We gifted Brighton their home win last season; time to make amends for that!
Their GD is -6, so we should be scoring for fun.
The Liverpool games is far more concerning. After watching them agaisnt United I thought then, with their relentless pace, they could do us some serious damage, especially with our make shift defense.
If we can get a draw against Liverpool at Anfield, I think that will be a massive result for us.
GOH
Your kid is not going to have trouble applying leave for work on his birthday when he grows up.
Congrats and Merry Christmas!
All the dodgy praise being heaped on Mesut Ozil after the Burnley game symptomatic of some of the problem with media. The fact that Ozil has stunk the place out with his nasty attitude for the best part of two months now, suddenly matters little. The guy is a fraud no matter what happens henceforth. Why do we have to wait months and years for his so-called talent to shine through? His tendency to put on a show when his back is against the wall; against lowly opposition is exactly why most of us don’t rate him. Stringing passes against… Read more »
Best wishes my friend..
Also to all Gunners.
Happy holidays to all you Grover’s. Was a cracking 32 degrees C in Melbourne for Christmas. Hope the snow has been falling for everyone in the North (if that’s what you like on Christmas).
And congratulations to Guns of Hackney and his newborn son Wengemery. I’m sure he’ll make you proud!!
Guns, congrats to you and the missus on Wengemery
Congratulations GoH! Let’s get another win against Brighton. We certainly can do it. I hope that we really start cutting out these moments of madness that we have produced in almost every game that we have played so far this season. I just hope that Unai realises that we cannot be too intensive in the PL as this is most certainly the root cause of these injuries that have piled up and depleted our team at an alarming rate. The problem is that the players have gone from one extreme type of training (too relaxed) to another (too hyper intensive).… Read more »
Myhki was injured from an impact injury, precisely when Moura caught hm on the leg.
Let’s keep the Christmas spirit and not start fanning another “soft tissue injury” – from overplaying nonsense.
Besides does anyone believe that Mykhi has been overplayed?
Eldesmarque: Unai Emery has made it clear. He wants Éver Banega for January. An interest that is not new, because #Arsenal already asked for him last summer.
From Argentina: “Ever Banega is close to leaving Sevilla to move to Arsenal at the request of Unai Emery, the coach who always got the best out of him as a player.”
Mikki shouldn’t be at Arsenal in the first place… Offload In the summer
From Argentina: Arsenal are willing to pay €20m for Ever Banega.
Congratulations GOH. Pedro where is today’s preview of the game.
Congratulations GOH. Pedro where is today’s preview of the game please.
Ought to complete the (buy) business early; and try selling to recoup what we can. Ever Banega isn’t bad at the reported £18m.. .but another 30 yo?? If buying for cover, would Cesc @31 cost 18m? Any worse, with all the PL experiences? We need an AM who is comfy to keep ball, take it forward, and manage tempo of the game ie not just a one touch specialist. Ideally, a 22 to 25 yo Carola. I believe we’d end up with a cheap CB either way, a 32yo Cahill on loan or 23 yo Calero at €10m release clause… Read more »
“GOH became a father today on this most holiest of days. That means either he (baby) is the messiah or I am god. I’ll go with the latter. GOH very much out. Peace.”
Birthday coinciding with Xmas?
Get in!
Youre gonna save a lot on presents!! 😉🤑🤑
Thanks to all the kind words of congratulations. We may not all agree on football, but on matters beyond millionaires kicking a ball about…we are all just trying to get through life as best as possible.
Peace out!
Merry Christmas to you all.
Yeah I know is boxing day but can Gambon, Pierre, Charlie, Marko, Dissenter, Receding, GOH, Tony ..all you just keep the gloves for just 24hrs more???
Oh yeah…it’s game night and Ozil and Iwobi plays so never going to happen huh??
…well…go ahead and knock yourselves out guys!!!
Belated merry xmas to you all, some of us were working yesterday!
Congratulations GOH,
Suggested baby names, unai, paddy Dennis or Thierry,
Three points today is the only present I want.
Since Banega and Cesc are the same kind of players and Cesc is clearly the better player I would rather him than Banega. Plus he’s way cheaper.
Last week in the 2nd half v Burnley I witnessed an assault on xhaka down by the touch line ( no card)…a knee in the back of Guendouzi(no card)and an elbow to the head of AMN (no card) ……twice during the game the referee called the Burnley captain over to discuss challenges made by Burnley players but no action was taken. We could be entering into a situation where a player needs to get seriously hurt before action will be taken …Sean Dyche’s comments will not make things any easier for Arsenal players…Brighton players will be told to make the… Read more »
I think the days of whinging and complaining are over Pierre.
Seasons greetings.
Hearing GOH named his kid Arteta Hackney.
I think we have Brighton covered. I’ll take a 1-0 as I don’t like Matty Ryan conceding too many, as an Australian haha.
Gambon.
I’ll prefer Arteta Gunson.
Congratulations, GOH. God knows I’m looking forward to having mine.
Happy Keresimesi LeGrovers.
Best wishes to all Le Grover and special thanks to Pedro for providing this platform.
Graham Season’s greetings to you. I can assure you that if Arsenal players are subjected to similar challenges throughout the next few games (and they will be)and we suffer serious injuries and lose games then you won’t regard it as “whingeing and complaining” . By Arsenal allowing these false accusations to go out unanswered it could be seen as an admission of guilt. Pep,klopp,pochettino or jose would have highlighted the tackles by Burnley and ridiculed the accusations of diving…. They would have come out and defended their players and the good name of the club as they would know that… Read more »
Pierre does have a point in what he’s saying. Brighton will use it to their advantage. I hope kola, papa and Xhaka are ready
Wow! I find myself agreeing with Pierre. Suppose it had to happen this year by law of averages. As long as we were intelligent in the way we addrssed Dyche’s comments where we should have brought the matter up so future referees & media are aware. This was always Fergie’s pet love remonstrating with referees days even before a game, which was very effective for United. No need to winge but no harm could come from showing selected replys in a presser, so very valid point Pierre. Georgio See kept the gloves on and no barbs either. I’m sure 2019… Read more »
Graham, if we have referees who don’t come down on overly aggressive tackling then you get more talented teams’ players in danger of being badly injured and a match losing its flow and becoming stop/start. An early yellow is all it takes to put down a marker and affect the pre game strategy of a Dyche-like coach. This they ‘don’t like it up ‘em’ translates to, if the referee is soft we’ll try and kick them off the park. It’s one of my pet hates when an opposition player fouls and hurts one of our players who after assistance from… Read more »
Happy Holidays to each and all Gooners around the globe.
Let’s get that all important win later this evening.
Good festive fun to all true Gooners and I hope 2019 brings your every wish.
All my best wishes to everyone on le-grove. I hope your holidays are filled with joy and love.
A clean sheet tonight would be tremendous. coyg
