Just Arsenal Fans

It’s not the size of a man but the size of his feet that matters…

According to Arsene Wenger anyway and I for one admire the French legend enough to take his word as gospel… excluding his decision to bring on Ramsey (a guy who has difficulty finding the back of the net at the best of times) during a crucial game against Manchester City in the 78th minute, when we were desperate and deserving of a goal. But that’s a whole other ramble.  Read more...

The team, the fans and the chequebook by Richard B.

Another season over and fans up and down the country will be reflecting on what was and what could have been this season. 38 Premier League matches, 3 teams relegated and only 1 team crowned champion. Those are the crucial numbers for any football club. After those 4 places have been decided, the detail of Champion’s and Europa League places becomes the next most important, with the rest of the positions mainly being contested for pride more than anything else.  Read more...

Hello people.

At last something for all of us to get along and cheer about. It was nothing less than outstanding to end in 3rd position after that bad a start. And also the papers and fans attacking our players and manager. It was a wonderful feeling and something more to see our team celebrate after the final whistle. Even the darkest of Gooners couldn’t bring down a happy day. And I’m sure hearts were in many mouths in the last 20 minutes and when Mr Gibbs made a world class tackle at the death.  Read more...

A Stunning end to a strange season by Vinay

For those who are still recovering from the dramatic ending, for the ones who are still smiling imagining United and Spurs fans – and for the ones who still are saying how can this be, the feeling is mutual!

One of the finest EPL seasons in memory came to an end on the final day in the final few minutes and when it all ended and the dust settled down, we had a new champion, a furious runner-up and a team which was supposed to be mid table as 3rd. Strange isnt it.  Read more...

It’s been one hell of a ride- this season it is!

We have got over the final hurdle and finished the race at a position where most of us never thought we would end up. At least, after the dreadful start to the season I never in my dreams thought that Arsenal would finish third. Congratulations to the team and my fellow gooners.

Now, I would like to ask my fellow gooners, what’s the importance of playing in Champions League?

a) 35 million, which we will get.

b) Another quarter final exit next season?  Read more...

Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve become sick and tired of some people moaning that Arsenal players lack the heart and passion to play for the club. well, to hell with them!

Szczesny played at West Brom even when he possible couldn’t, when his shoulder was in no fit condition for him to take to the field. Is that the position of a man who doesn’t love the club?

Koscielny played every match week in week out even though he had a back problem, and this because Arsenal were experiencing a defensive crisis at that time. Is that the position of a man who doesn’t love the club?  Read more...

This season really has been crazy. From the Manchester humbling, the deadline day madness and the repeated dips in form, we are just creeping over the line.

But we aren’t there yet, we still have a tricky away fixture at West Brom to sweat over.

Goalkeeping Department:

Wojciech Szczesny has had a decent season. He is still young, and I cannot be too critical when it comes to his performances. He is better than the other keepers at the club. Distribution could be a bit better. Decision making and kicking are still his weak points. He is a natural shot stopper and good at commanding the penalty area. Occasionally he suffers from a lack of confidence after making an error, but he can only fix that when he gets a bit more experience.  Read more...

Hii guys, and a very good morning to you and your family. The last day of Premier League action beckons today so I hope you had a good sound sleep, and refrained from watching your usual horror movie last night.

But today, I’m not going to live in the present and stress on how important this game is for us. I’ve already done that over the past week or so, and I’m pretty sure that others will be doing so on their respective blogs. Today, I want to play soothsayer, and talk about a quartet of young English players that, if all turns out well, will be at the head of everything Arsenal does in the next decade.  Read more...

Over the past couple of seasons, many have argued that Robin van Persie is being played out of position, that his preferred role is as the second striker, in the Dennis Bergkamp played. While there is no doubt that RVP would be effective in that position, I would just like to say that by no means is it his NATURAL position.  Read more...

Hello Arsenal fans.

First of all, I want to apologise to anyone who finds it hard to read my blogs. I’ve never been a writer or great with my grammar. A few of the lads such as Emrich or Uche seem to find my blogs useless to read or understand. Still I guess you can’t make everyone happy. That’s the whole part of me learning. Maybe a bit like Wenger or players having to take it on the chin after a poor performance. But I thank Nitesh and others for letting me be a regular writer on this great site. Most of my feed back is positive and so I guess you take the rough with the smooth. I would also like to thank Wengernumb for respecting my views. Even if he never agrees lol. Anyways moving on.  Read more...
