Coming soon….
As you know we had to redo a lot of the website over the last few weeks, made all the more horrendous by a computer hack into our system. We’re now pretty settled and back in business on a new machine, with new levels of security and the such so that we are now turning our attention to the registration system and other features we’ve wanted to impliment. We hope to integrate the registration system seemlessly with Paypal this year, so we won’t have to go through massive lists of emails and match them up to (non-matching) paypals and then print registration...

Towards the end of last season, when I watched our team play, without Henry and van Persie, I had a strong belief that the coming season we will be ready to launch a SERIOUS charge towards the Premeriship title. The team passed the ball well, and their ability to create scoring chances despite without Henry really caught me by suprise. All we needed was a better FINISHING. I thought van Persie and Henry would be able to address that.
Now Titi has gone, I have read many names being mentioned, Torres, Eto’o, Anelka, Owen, Babel…. I know everyone has his own favourite, those...

Now that Henry is gone, how would it affect the team?
I think it really depends on the players’ flame of mind. They can either think:
(1) Oh man, now we have lost our Messiah, the coming season is as good as finished. I better ring my agent to see if there is any way out of this sinking ship.
OR
(2) Now the captain has gone. Why he left? Well, maybe he thought we were not good enough. Otherwise why go Barcelona to play the “Arsenal way”? Let’s go out and show him nothing is better than the “original”.
I hope the players...

Sorry I have extremely limited internet access- I’m in the car.
Just wanted to give you guys a space to discuss Thierry Henry’s departure to Barcelona for a mere 16 million pounds.

I want to response to Stag’s comment “whatever we get from the sale of Henry, will go into the clubs coffers. There is no evidence whatsoever to suggest we’d buy a proven striker if TH14 were sold. NONE” with a new post here.
First, if all Arsenal board cares about is to make a profit out of the players they sold, or to make money out of this football business… then WHY would you think the board decided to go for a new stadium and put the club from a debt-free situation to become a 300 million pounds debt-carrying club? The club were making plently of money during...

So they were digging up the old stadium and they found 2 horseshoes and a bit of an old wooden cart. I think we should get those horseshoes over to the Emirates stadium, we need all the luck we can get!

I read something from DannyT about Michael Owen to Arsenal. I agree it’s not likely Wenger, or in fact, any manager from the “big 4″ would go for such an injury-phroned player. But apparently Owen got a get-out clause in his contract which allows him to leave for 8 millions (why would Newcastle accepted a clause like this at the first place, having paid 17 millions for him?)…
Anyway, I said before, it’s crazy for any club to pay 17 millions for a player, to the most, would give you half a season of games each year. But if it’s 8 million pounds, I...

Don’t hate the player, hate the game!
In this case, for me… the “game” would be, allowing your best players to leave and not replacing them.
Frankly, I don’t get some of the folks who show such disdain and a lack of respect for a player like Thierry Henry. Quite probably, Henry is the best striker to ever pull the Arsenal shirt on. He’s been nothing short of fantastic for us. His goal totals are untouchable.
Here’s a few stats for you haters:
2001-2002: 32 goals (7 goals in 7 CL games.)
2002-2003: 32 goals & 23 assists...

The past two seasons, I don’t know if it’s a case of Wenger let the team down, or the team let Wenger down?
Wenger had stood up to defend his team whenever things went against us. And he had kept his faith in his players by repeat announcing to the public that he would not be bringing in too many new players. The message, make no mistake, was not aiming to the media or the fans, it’s aiming to the players, and it was crystal clear - I have faith in you guys, and go out and prove me right.
Next season will be the final year of Wenger’s current contract....
