Of course these conditional exercises are difficult to see through – there are always far too many variables, but still it is interesting to look at the options… Thinking of Hleb I think we would have been far worse off. Nasri would not have been signed, and we would have had a lot of dribbles,…
Arsène Wenger made it perfectly clear at the shareholders meeting that he is not going to let Helb leave. Inter Milan have acted just like Chelsea, in tapping up Alex Hleb, and the papers have finally got around to understanding that there is the Webster Clause which allows players to buy out their agreement after…
The amazing way in which Arsene Wenger managed to secure William Gallas to play for Arsenal will be the talking point of football until they stop playing football. Arsenal had a highly paid but unhappy left back in Cole. With Clichy – potentially the greatest left back in the world – waiting in the wings…
It seems utterly bizarre and crazy, but it looks as if of the top four in the EPL only one of the clubs could, if it so wished, rush out and spend £30 million on Johnny Foreigner (to use Mr Sugar’s memorable phrase about Dennis Bergkamp.) The Russians have announced that there will be no…
At last we are getting somewhere. Portsmouth have finally – five days after the event – have said they will now make a complaint to the Sweet FA over the abuse aimed at Sol Campbell during last Sunday’s Portsmouth vs Tiny Totts game.”Both Sol and the club feel no player should be subjected to personal…
While the Tiny Fantasists (managed by Harry Hotspur) and Portsmouth (previously managed by the self same chap) have both utterly failed to do anything about one of the awful outbreak of racism and homophobia against Sol Campbell, and while the EPL and the FA have likewise failed to take any action whatsoever over the action…
Arsenal, we are repeatedly told has a little squad. That’s why they can’t win things. To win things you need a Big Squad. With a Big Squad you win things. Its worth putting both ways round because it is said so often. You know the game – one journalist says it so another says it,…
In deepest darkest Hertfordshire (Shenley to be exact) there is a biological laboratory. Surrounded by armed guards and men in track suits, it houses one of the most extraordinary genetic experiments ever seen on British soil. For it is here, no less, that the Genetic Research Experimental Facility is based. Funded by Arsenal FC the…
When football clubs are run by money grabbing Americans who are intent on filling the club with debt while having no sense of what a British football club means to its supporters then two things happen. One is the club ultimately goes bust, but meanwhile while this is happening, it alienates everyone and the supporters…
On the day when everyone is raving (quite rightly) about our team of 3 year olds there’s nothing more to add on that front – save to reiterate that it was possible to get a ticket for £10. If we had been playing the Tiny Fantasists they would have demanded the standard A prices…
