In a world full of highly-paid and ungrateful footballers it is refreshing to know that people like Philippe Senderos still exist.

In a shock piece of news out-of-contract Sol Campbell has confirmed that he will be resigning with Arsenal until the end of season. The former Arsenal defender has been training with Arsene Wenger and the rest of the boys for the past two months and actually played for the reserve team as they beat West […]
Nasri ban I’ll start with a little bit of a shock today with the news that Samir Nasri is likely to miss the next three Arsenal games for stepping on Richard Garcia’s foot in the win over Hull. Although Nasri received a yellow card for the incident the referee on the night, Steve Bennett, has […]
It’s a very late, very brief post today in the wake of the closing of the transfer window. By now you will surely know that it was a hugely uneventful final day, with no new signings coming in. I said in yesterday’s post that I was hoping a defensive midfielder would come in to cover […]
Before I get started on today’s post I just want to thank everyone for their kind words on yesterday’s season launch post. The enthusiastic support I received for my plans for the season were most appreciated and although my beard received mixed reviews, I’m really excited about the potential of this blog going forward.

There’s all sorts of stuff involving Arsenal going down at the moment so I’ll quickly summarise.

Today is the second in a series of posts reviewing Arsenal’s 2008/09 season. Yesterday I reviewed the performances of our goalkeepers over the course of the season and up for scrutiny today is the Arsenal defence. Unlike yesterday’s post which looked individually at the performances of Manuel Almunia and Lukasz Fabianski, this article is more […]
Hello again – hope you’re well. If you’ve been reading the blog this week you’ll know I’ve been a little bit grumpy. Grumpy with the loss to Fulham on the weekend. Grumpy with the fact that the signing that Arsene Wenger promised to make before the FC Twente game has not eventuated. Grumpy because my […]
Aaargh – where do I start today? First things first, I regret to inform you that the midfield signing that Arsene Wenger promised before the FC Twente game has still not been made. By my calculations that means the manager now has just over 36 hours to make something happen. Unfortunately this looks increasingly less likely after […]
