Arsenal must reshuffle to beat wounded United

Posted on 15 November, 2016 by Blog Admin

With Saturday fast approaching we come to a major juncture of Arsenal’s season. Since Fergie left we’ve been in a few positions where we’ve gone to Old Trafford in the League with big expectations and suffered more than prospered.

In 2013 David Moyes’ hapless United beat us 1-0 and last season Louis Van Gaal’s out of form, glorified youth team gave us the sucker punch blow that effectively haunted our title race.

Saturday’s game brings even more importance though. Our troubles in November are a yearly well of despair that nowadays we more lower ourselves down into rather than fall in. The added incentive comes with Jose Mourinho, a man Wenger has never beaten in the League and because of that, the man Wenger will want to beat most.

Why Jack Wilshere has a future with Arsenal and England

Posted on 8 November, 2016 by Blog Admin

It was at the 2009 Emirates Cup that Jack Wilshere first came to mine and many people’s attention. As a baby-faced 17-year-old, he burst onto the scene at the pre-season tournament and by the end of it he was the name on everyone’s lips.

For most that year’s Emirates Cup was a mere friendly competition, a chance to get some fitness in ahead of the upcoming campaign. But not for Wilshere. Instead it was his opportunity to shine and show what all the fuss was about.

He tore Glasgow Rangers apart during the opening day’s action, scoring twice in a 3-0 win against a side who only 12 months ago had reached the final of the then UEFA Cup. Wilshere’s performance naturally drummed up the typical media hype, indeed the Daily Telegraph’s comparison to a young Paul Gascoigne.

Why November is Arsenal’s make or break period

Posted on 3 November, 2016 by Blog Admin

What could have been a woeful start to a season which contained such promise after the summer has turned into one filled with countless possibilities. After our 4-3 home loss on opening day to Jürgen Klopp’s revamped and revitalized Liverpool, Arsenal followed up the disappointing with a 0-0 draw away at the King Power Stadium. One point from six to open the League campaign was hardly what the Gooner faithful had in mind, but how our beloved boys in red would respond has potentially built a platform for greater things to come.

After the opening-day setback, Arsenal has gone on a fourteen match unbeaten run that has included notable results against Watford, Southampton, Paris Saint-Germain, Chelsea and Ludogorets Razgrad. Though we’ve still had the odd struggle (0-0 at home to Middlesbrough especially), we are in fantastic form, sitting joint top of the domestic table with Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City as well as Klopp’s Red Barons.
