Ramsey, Podolski, Walcott or Chamberlain? What Is Arsene’s Future Wide Plans?

Both Theo and Gervinho were very important to van Persie's excellent scoring record and although Gervinho's and Walcott's goal return was not yet as great as we would have liked, the general consensus was that it would improve in time. Theo Walcott for one is a player who I expect to score regularly and we are slowly seeing that now. Gervinho has been very wasteful at times but has managed to get into scoring positions, the hope is that in time he would develop the much needed

Joel Campbell Multitasking Skills, Footballing Gods Listen & AOC’s End Product

Another Gooner was amongst the action last night one that hasn't made the Arsenal shirt just yet as he is on loan to improve his chances of obtaining a work permit. Costa Rican Joel Campbell scored for erm Costa Rica against Wales. A very tidy finish it was as well. I have only watched the odd highlights as well as the obvious YouTube compilation and one thing is obvious, he doesn't suffer from the Gervinho syndrome. In fact quite the opposite he looks like he could wash up

Sunderland (a) – O’Neill Is Arsene’s Pitch, Ramsey, Arshavin & Decisions

Previous to that Arsene Wenger brought on Thierry Henry for Oxlade-Chamberlain. Gooners are still wondering why it is Chamberlain that is being removed and not someone like Theo Walcott who was not at his best in the North East. It is nothing to do with footballing ability or indeed impact on the game like at Manchester United. Chamberlain is being protected, Arsene doesn't want him to play 90

Ramsey’s Arsenal Adventure Will Have Happy Ending / Chamakh /Arshavin

Since joining Arsenal over Manchester United back in 2008, Aaron Ramsey has had somewhat of an eventful time at the club. A bright youngster who was developing quickly, had a great attitude and then suffered from the Shawcross assult, had his place in the team taken by his Caring Cup team mate who had made a similar impact and then got his place back again

Swansea City (a) Thoughts & Line Up: Arshavin, Bare Bones & Rodgers Blueprints

There were rumours of Mikel Arteta being ruled out due to injury or illness but those rumours have come from the world of Twitter so I will cast those aside until I hear anything official. With Francis Coquelin the latest Arsenal player to be struck down with injury, we have to hope that we do not pick up anymore midfield injuries as we are very short

Talos Henry Comes Alive, Arsene Waiting For Exits & Loans

Arsene's was asked whether he was interested in bringing any new players during the window and his response was very interesting. He said that he had a full squad and wouldn't be adding to the squad unless players left. That statement is fine in itself as was explained in the blog yesterday, due to squad restrictions we can only do something if some are moved on but what caught my attention was the fact that he was speaking about players who have no real chance to play. That sounds as if he is admitting publicly that playing time will not

Why Arshavin & Arsenal Should Go Separate Ways / What Mould Of Forward?

This newly constructed Arsenal team need wide players with stamina and athleticism. Andrey Arshavin cannot run up and down the flank for 90 minutes every three days. Since he joined in 2008, he was able to get away with misplacing passes and shooting straight at the keeper instead of finding the corners because he was still nudging through diagonal slide rule passes to runners and setting up goals. To be honest, Andrey Arshavin

Will We See The 2008 Arshavin? / Comparing Coquelin & Ryo

A player like Zinedine Zidane started out as a right sided player but because of his influence he was moved inside so he could be more involved in the game. The same was the case for Dennis Bergkamp at Ajax and even our very own Robin van Persie who last contributed to Feyenoord from the left wing. When you are a player who flickers in and out of games and find it difficult to dictate a
