Well that was disappointing, to say the least. I can’t think of a single player (with the exception of Bendtner of all people) who did themselves justice. Theo took his goals well, but did little else.  He was by no means on his own. City set off like a runaway train but I felt that […]

I am really not up to this today.  Are you any day, you might well ask? I’ve been struck down with a terrible case of man-flu.   Never mind though, I’ll struggle on [Takes out onion and weeps – Ed] because I know without my expert opinions you would not know what to think. So […]

A tricky hand … The boys are off on a jaunt to Italy then. As far as I can tell, a draw or a win puts us top of the group.  A defeat by less than a 3 goal margin leaves us runners-up if BVB win in France. I am sure there are all sorts […]

Today’s piece is penned by our very own @anicoll5. In line with house policy I shall not recite the events of Sunday afternoon on the pitch as you have seen it, or heard it, or followed it on Twitter, or missed it. If the latter, my poor expression would be inadequate to describe an excellent […]

You have to have some depth in your squad to rest the kind of quality we rested last night. But it’s more than just the players who took a breather, who will therefore necessarily return refreshed and stronger for their recumbent relaxation, the significance of the sheer depth and quality of the squad Arsène has […]

Well, who knew? I was minded to write a post about the ridiculous notion put forward by the malcontents that Arsene has changed. An idea put forward to justify their stupidity over recent times. Yesterday in the comments section of PA, people did it for me.  Have a read of some of them … Anicoll: […]

Ozil to Ramsey, Ozil to Flamini and the Theo/Aaron axis brought about the goals – Three fine goals, I might add. There is no doubt that Ozil has made a difference to our fortunes. His composed passing in the final third is always going to lead to chances. The latest step in Ramsey’s development is […]
