Great time out at Maggie’s last Sunday as Arsenal put Spurs to the sword. Particularly gratifying was a brace of goals from our much maligned striker, Viktor Gyökeres. Sure it was against a poor Tottenham side, but both were well taken stunning strikes. Please sir, can I have some more? Chelsea visit the Emirates Sunday,Continue reading “Another Sunday derby”

Arsenal washing out of the FA Cup Sunday was excruciating. A truly anemic affair which saw Gabriel Jesus stretchered off and a withering lack of finishing by our front line. Despite our lofty position in the table, it’s hard to imagine we will catch Liverpool and somehow win the league. There’s also a steep hillContinue reading “What do we think of Arsenal?”
