Josep Knows

I was hesitant to post this a few months back when I got this in my inbox but today, I admit, reluctantly that it is absolutely and 100% spot on. I often don’t admit when I am wrong or when others are right but, as I always say, there is an exception to every rule. … Continue reading

The Grand Finale: Part 4 of our season in review

It’s finally here. The end of my long thesis on our season and it’s taken as much out of me as it has out of you. I do hope you have enjoyed it, though. It’s been a great ride so far, gooners. We’ve gone over our defense, the strengths and weaknesses of our midfield and … Continue reading

Forwards, Arsenal. Part 3 of the season in review

Hello and welcome to the 3rd installment of this year’s season review. Today I’m going to take a look at our front line, led by the captain himself, Robin Van Persie. But first, a quick note: It has come to my attention that a well-know and much read Arsenal blog is doing his season review … Continue reading

Part Deux of the season review. You know how I do

Aaaaaand that’s the extent of my rhyming skills. On that note, lets dive (put your hand down, Mr. Busquets) into the second part of this epic saga that is my season review. Today we’ll be discussing the topic of midfield. Its generated a lot of frustration and good vibes this season, often at the same … Continue reading

Part 1 of my season review.

In an effort to not bombard you with a 4,000 word desertion about how I feel our season went, I felt it more appropriate to slim it down to 4 easy payments of 1,000 words each! That’s a deal I know you can’t deny. Unless you want to wake up with your prize horse’s head … Continue reading

Hello….is it me you’re looking for?

So, as round 36 of the Barclay’s Premier League just about wraps up, I, like many of you, have wondered where our season has gone. It began so quickly and ended even quicker. The blog, for the most part, took the season off, mostly because of personal life reasons. I’ll admit, I missed it. Writing … Continue reading

FORWARD Arsenal 1 Newcastle 1.

Is it a coincidence that the season we send Denilson out on loan, the club motto becomes FORWARD ?  I THINK NOT. Anyway, that’s beside the point… The draw on Saturday put a lot of us in panic mode. Considering our finishing, or lack thereof, I can understand some of the frustration. Looking at the stats, … Continue reading

Copa, FMF week 1, Chelito, A few words for Sam and Fran

Morning, goons, goonettes, and all life-forms of goonerism. The blog’s taken a few days off but were up and running with loads of info coming your way. Fist off, we were again denied (in some ways) Larissa Riquelme running around naked on the pitch as Uruguay beat Paraguay 2-0. In what was a pretty one-sided … Continue reading

Copa Larissa, Our Passing Style

Happy Humpday people. Hope it zips by and you can get home in time for the other Copa America semifinal between Larissa Riquelme and Venezuela. I have a soft spot for Paraguay and NO it doesn’t have anything to do with a certainly popular woman. I am a UMAM Pumas supporter, as many of you … Continue reading

Roll on the Copa, Samba Boys, Rambo Ready?

Greetings, beautiful people. Wellington Silva here. Just kidding, its me, Luis. I just like the phrase, ”beautiful people”. It was a whirlwind weekend. Hope you’ve recovered. I have yet to. It started off with Arsenal taking on Hangzhou Greentown. While Chinese Gooners were putting the crowd that visits the Emirates on a weekly basis to … Continue reading
