The curious case of Theo Walcott
The signing of Arteta perpetuates the usage of a 4-3-3. But Theo should remember that his best form for the Club came in the middle of last season during the wonderful purple patch that shall forever be known as Theo Van Nasregas. (a single tear rolls
Back in Business After Positive Transfer Dealings
I have heard and read a lot of ex footballers, pundits, journalists criticise Wenger for not stumping the cash for Cahill rather than going for a cheap alternative in Per Mertesacker. I see no reason why anyone would fault Wenger's judgement on this one. Mertesacker has a wealth of experience which Cahill can only dream of. He has won the Uefa Cup with Werder Bremen, competed in the Champions League and represented his country at the highest level. He has 75 caps for his country, Played 147 Bundesliga
Your Vision – Compare And Contrast This New Look Arsenal With Last Seasons Losers
Granted we didn't sign one marque CMF and we're relying on Jack but who else would you have had over Arteta....? There can't be many. Don't get me wrong i would have loved to have seen Hazard but he plays on the flanks and isn't exactly known for his ability to dictate play in the centre of the park. He is incredibly skillful but Gervinhio was more productive for Lille, plus they were not going to sell for less than £40M which is more than what we spent on all 5 of our shiny new players

Man Utd (a) Post Match Thoughts: Distraught, Total Humiliation!
We can all sit and point fingers at Wenger for the shambles we are in but I won't be a party to that. The board in my opinion are solely to blame. Put the cash down and Wenger would strengthen. Why wait till the sales of Cesc and Nasri before we start making arrangements for replacements when all knew they would leave at some point this summer. Why not make the required purchases before
Your Vision – The Death of Arsenal FC
Midfield; be prepared. Actually, I’m not going to say much about the midfield. Coquelin’s performance was okay, I suppose, for a young player playing with tremendous pressure in his first Premier League performance. Ramsey is not Cesc, silly Gooners. He never has been, he never will be. He is Aaron, and remember, he is a young man still recovering from his injury, and any abuse toards him is unjustified
Your Vision Letter submitted to Arsene Wenger on the 23rd
There seems to me to be no reason for this intransigence about us having such a great squad that there are almost no players around to improve it unless they are cheaper foreign imports. So what if you pay over the odds for one or two players or if
Manchester United (a) Thoughts & Line Up: Team spirit must remain to have chance of result
The most interesting selection for Arsene Wenger will be who to play as the defensive shield in the Arsenal midfield. Alex Song and Emmanuel Frimpong are both suspended whilst Abou Diaby is sitting out injured. With Denilson out on loan, we are looking incredibably short in that area for today's game. According to the very reliable Jamie Sanderson from Young Guns blog, young French midfielder Francis Coquelin will start the game as the defensive midfielder. I thought we might see Johan Djourou return to the position that he started at as a youngster. If Coquelin starts the game then he is likely to be
