Post image for Four conclusions on a wonderful weekend for Arsenal

What a wonderful weekend for Arsenal. A 1-0 victory over Everton, made possible by a wonder-goal from our club captain; losses to league leaders Manchester City and those lads at Tottenham; and the unveiling of three glorious statues outside Emirates Stadium marked the 125th anniversary for the club that we all love.

The revolving doors were spinning like [...]

We are starting to gel. After overcoming the doom and gloom of a terrible start to the season we’ve produced three good results in a row — starting with the thrilling 5-3 victory over Chelsea that ranks up there as one of the most entertaining games of Arsene Wenger’s fifteen years in charge.

Post image for Gervinho’s enormous brain head

I’m in a loopy mood after a crazy Sunday of football, so don’t be surprised if that comes across in the rest of the post. Just look at the headline, for goodness sakes. First things first, let’s talk about our game. A 3-1 win against Stoke, our sixth home win in a row and we’re [...]
