Are Arsenal actually misfiring? by Vinay

Hi All,

Two games into the season and the knives are out. Arsenal cannot score, Podolski and Giroud are crap and we can never replace that “little kid” (cant say his name again in my life), Gervinho is going the Arshavin way and our midfield has no clue but for Cazorla. I mean seriously so in 2 games we have been judged and decided upon?  Read more...

For Once Be Our Arsenal by Vinay

Alright its over, lets move on shall we. He has gone and it is good riddance in every sense of the word. The one thing that I sincerely wished was for someone, if not everyone, from the manager to the staff and the players was to come out and say something like this- “We dont speak about our ex players”, such a simple yet such a classy statement.  Read more...

Who will win the premier league? by Vinay

Its the Premier League all over again, its staring at our face and it all starts this weekend. Two and half months of waiting, endless media speculation of who is coming and who is going, 3 great signings and one waiting to leave, whatever be the case, its that time of the year to clear your throats and shout- “Come on Arsenal”.

Lets look at potentially how the league will span out for the next 10 months and analyze in brief who has the best chance of winning the league.  Read more...

Hi All,

3 weeks to go, 3 weeks to go, 3 weeks to go, I think all us Gooners are counting the days now. Or some of us are thinking, oh no only 3 weeks to go?. Whatever the state of mind, I think its fair to say that we all can’t wait for the season to start.

As we approach the new season, the question on every Gooner’s mind is, can we actually win anything this season?. Instead of asking can we, let’s see how we CAN win.  Read more...

The Joker by Vinay

With the utmost respect to Christopher Nolan, the joker i am talking about is the ex-Arsenal players and the plastic fans of the club. How do you identify them you may ask, simple most of the ex players talk trash about the club and the way its run, the plastic fans always complain that nothing is going right and we are doomed.  Read more...

Feeder Club? by Vinay

Hi, the word that is associated with the gunners nowadays is we are the “feeder club”, we are used as a springboard and players jump of when they feel. Arsenal cannot hold on to their stars they say, we no longer have the power to attract big names etc, we have heard it all. Can someone define what is feeder club to me? as far as i know it means we feed others is it? Then we are greater than them right? The hand that feeds is always greater than the hand that asks.  Read more...

Robin Van Persie by Vinay

I know there have been umpteen articles, comments and reactions to RVP, here is a small take on him by me. This is not to criticize him leaving but the way he has “literally left” us.

2012 – Robin announces his decision to not extend his contract extension on his personal website.

2004 – Robin who, didn’t even have his own website!  Read more...

Arsenal’s Engine Room by Vinay

Hi,

The season has gone by and we have been caught up with the Euros but since its coming to an end i just felt we can see the pros and cons of the Arsenal engine room.

The pros of course has to be the fact that if we ended up scoring 74 goals, the midfield has to have had an excellent attacking season. The midfield which had Arteta, Song, Aaron, Benayoun, Rosicky and when the need be Coquelin was indeed for most parts terrific. The best part of this midfield was the fact that the mentioned players interchanged their positions and still were successful.  Read more...

There is only one Arsene Wenger by Vinay

Its kind of befitting to pay tribute to the man who did what many thought was close to impossible, make Arsenal finish 3rd in the league last season. Its even more appropriate to thank the man for doing so because a lot many said “you dont know what you are doing…”. Its probably the right time to thank him because end of the upcoming season he may or may not be there.  Read more...

Get it right by Vinay

The worst part of being an Arsenal fan is during june and july. No games, transfer targets all going of somewhere else, players who may or may not leave, what it means to be an Arsenal fan can only be understood by the ones who “actually” are.

The euros have been a distraction but thats about it. I dont think an Arsenal fan really gets affected to much as to who wins or loses even though most fans will have loyalties with some team or the other. We all watch it with interest because end of the day its football and some of the games have been very good so far.  Read more...
