Wigan (h) Thoughts & Line Up: Gibbs, Gervinho and the Ox push for starting spots

16th April 2012 admin

Tomas Rosicky should return to the side tonight after having been fully rested at Wolves in midweek. Gervinho returns to the squad and so could Kieran Gibbs if he comes through late fitness checks. I am interested to know who will get the nod at left back. Gibbs has done very well since his return to the side and Santos is not quite up to speed since his long term

Diaby Dreams, Gardening Gibbs & Reaching ‘The Vibe’

17th November 2011 admin

Theo Walcott has been talking up the impact of Gervinho and I would have to concur. He really gives us something different and as I have said a few times in the past. Even when he is off his game he still gives us that threat. He may have misplaced his last three passes but you want the ball back at his feet because he can burst past two defenders and completely open up the opposition. 5 assists in 8 Premier league games is very impressive for a player still adapting.

Gotze & Hazard Stats & Killing Youngsters

7th November 2011 admin

As we know, it didn't happen and apart from Gervinho and a few experienced players like Mikel Arteta we basically had to make do with what we already had at the club. With Cesc Fabregas and Samir Nasri departing for sunnier climates and greener pockets respectively, I thought we really needed one superstar to add to the quality youngsters and experienced

Injuries The New Transfer Rumour & The Margin Between Scapegoat or Hero

14th October 2011 admin

I would love to see the stats on points and league position based on the amount of changes made to a team over the course of the season. I doubt that we have ever used so many different players at this stage of the season since Arsene Wenger has been at the club and it is little wonder that we are swimming around the bottom half of the table right now. You can bet your bottom quid that once we have a settled side together who actually stay somewhere near fit then we will start to rise up the

Injury rears its ugly head Again

The new season has just begun, we are yet to see Jack Wilshere and Diaby play. Few days ago it was confirmed that Jack would be out for 2 - 3 months. Jack was outstanding last season and to be without him for 12weeks is damn too long. He is a natural born fighter who would surely help our

Jack’s absence could put Wenger’s plans on hold & International recovery

5th September 2011 admin

Jack Wilshere is a special talent, a teenager that more than held his own against the best midfield trio in world football at the Emirates on that famous night against Barcelona. He is the one player that I think will replace Cesc Fabregas in terms of game influence. I really believed that we would see a stronger Jack Wilshere at the start of this season. He had that glow around him in the early pre season

Getting back on track, Ticket price choices & Squad players

16th March 2011 admin

Yesterday's early Swiss FA news and then Arsenal news later on during the day was a bit like being a kid and wanting the latest games console. Begging your parents for it for the last 6 months, which probably felt closer to 6 years at that age. Then your dad comes home with the console box after work and you jump around saying 'thank you, thank you!!' only to be told that it is just the packaging. The box actually contains a five pack of

Many won’t agree but Denilson could be very important tomorrow evening

7th March 2011 admin

A big game tomorrow but I strangely feel somewhat relaxed about it. I like many Gooners are pretty much investing most of my emotional eggs into the Premier League basket and see the game tomorrow as a bonus. I asked the question on Twitter last night about which game would Gooners prefer to win, tomorrow's game or our big game against the Mancs at the Emirates and an overwhelming majority went for victory against the Mancs

Injury the danger, not cup defeat & Rooney’s predictable outcome

1st March 2011 admin

Speaking of Koscielny, I didn't actually see the slap on his head until yesterday as I turned the game off pretty much bang on the final whistle. Watching Koscielny not react because of the sheer disappointment made my heart sink and it was a total lack of class from Barry Ferguson. He is just lucky that he doesn't have another game against Arsenal this season. I would be awfully disappointed if one of his team mates didn't seek some sort

A Call to Arms

28th February 2011 William Benn

Unfortunately I fear my temperament pre-match may have had much to do with the eventual performance of my beloved team. While the papers screamed ‘expect’, and Arsenal fans wrote ‘believe’, I could do little more than hope, so lacking in confidence was I that I would finally get to see Arsenal celebrate. They say that art mirrors life, and nowhere was that more true than Sunday. I was far more nervous for this game than I had ever
