There’s something very insulting about Liverpool FC

Arsenal Stalloned in Experience: Silvestre Signs

Fans cuss and swear demanding that Wenger buy ‘experience’ and add to ‘strength in depth’, amongst other cliches. Cue Wenger signing someone who ticks both boxes, and the cussing and swearing begins anew. Will we ever learn?

Monty Python didn’t start off with a bang, neither…

For all Python fans out there, some of you might know that the pilot show that aired in 1969 had a few gags, a few laughs, but generally was a bit of a nervy performance that did not hint at the solidly brilliant series it would soon become.

Third-Gen backs Arsenal for the Title!

You expect me to say that. Last season, after the departure of Thierry Henry, I still said Arsenal should not be written off, ever. And I was 100% right in that conviction. If Arsenal sold their whole team, I would still say ‘Arsenal to win it all’. A die-hard Wenger-apologetic acronym used by a certain blog would fit me just fine, and this has always been the case.
