Arsenal Opinion Archives: 02/2018

Last week, a report claimed Arsene Wenger wants to stick around with Arsenal until he reaches 1,000 Premier League game with the club. Could that really happen?

For almost a decade, Arsenal fans have lamented the lack of a succession plan in place for when Arsene Wenger leaves his role as manager. But now, as evidenced by the signing of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, a plan is finally being put together – and it stinks.

The Premier League takes a break this weekend, and so do the Arsenal.

From Eddie Nketiah to Reiss Nelson, there are plenty of promising talents coming through the Arsenal u23s at the moment. Could Folarin Balogun be the next to shine?

It’s far too soon to write off Alexandre Lacazette.

Ahead of Arsenal’s game against Östersund, we spoke to Arsenal’s official supporter’s group from the country and their vice president, Malin Hägg, who kindly wrote this article which includes how Arsenal ended up with a fan group in the country, how it’s grown and events they are organising for travelling fans ahead of Thursday’s match.

Alexandre Lacazette hasn’t made the quickest start to life in North London, but can Arsenal fans take encouragement from Luis Suarez’s opening seasons at Liverpool?

Alexandre Lacazette shouldn’t have to be the fall guy for Arsenal and Arsene Wenger’s problems. 

Alexandre Lacazette had Arsenal’s two best chances against Tottenham, but they were more difficult than fans seemed to realise.

Petr Cech redeemed himself somewhat against Tottenham at the weekend but it is still hard to shake the feeling that selling Wojciech Szczesny was one of the biggest mistakes Arsene Wenger has ever made.

Arsene Wenger has blamed Alexandre Lacazette’s confidence issues on the arrival of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, completely ignoring the role he played in shattering it before the Gabonese forward arrived.

Arsene Wenger may have expected Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang to replicate their Everton performance against Spurs, but he was asking for too much.

There is no doubt that Arsène Wenger is the most successful and best coach in Arsenal’s history and the most accomplished Football coach around today but is it time for him to say goodbye to the club he’s been at for 21 years?

Arsenal fans have been burning their shirts with Alexandre Lacazette’s name on the back after the 26-year-old’s 25-minute display against Spurs on Saturday.

Alexandre Lacazette is having a rough time at the moment with Arsenal, particularly after his wasted chances in the North London derby. Is it poor form or the curse of the number nine shirt?

After Henrikh Mkhitaryan’s disappointing performance in the North London derby on Saturday, Manchester United fans took to Twitter to smugly proclaim they were right about him.

Under most circumstances, Arsenal fans would have been elated over their club signing Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang from Dortmund in January, but there was one crucial factor holding us back.

The Guardian suggest that the possibilities for Tottenham Hotspur next season are ‘tantalising’ when ‘the shackles come off’, but is that really going to be the case?

Mauricio Pochettino has been the darling of the British media since he joined Spurs in 2014 but are his recent comments pushing it?

For one glorious week, everything at Arsenal seemed brilliant.
