Arsene Wenger: Molder of Creativity and Beauty

Timothy Spenser — Fri, 06 Nov 2015 06:00:39 +0000

“I am only a guide. I allow others to express what they have in them. I have not created anything. I am a facilitator of beauty in man. I define myself as an optimist. My constant battle in this job is to bring out the beauty in men. You could call me naive. At the same time, […]

Timothy Spenser — Mon, 05 Oct 2015 16:00:23 +0000

Normally, tuning into a match 5 minutes late, you don’t miss much. Imagine my surprise and immediate joy when I turn on the television and see that Arsenal are up 1-0. Then we go up another 30 seconds after. I even had to think to myself, ‘what is gong on, am I watching a FIFA match?’ […]

Putting it in to Context: Arsenal Take on 11 Babies on a Bus

Timothy Spenser — Fri, 18 Sep 2015 19:07:58 +0000

A must win. Not necessarily in regards to the table and where Arsenal stand, or want to stand. More in the sense of bragging rights. Come the finish of the Derby tomorrow morning, London must be Red. Not only to shut up all the annoying spoiled Chelsea Business Club supporters; but to send a message […]

Tactical dissection of Arsenal’s 0-0 draw with Liverpool

Timothy Spenser — Tue, 25 Aug 2015 13:00:15 +0000

That was in no way satisfying, entertaining, or remotely fun. This next line won’t make that Nil-Nil game any better; but it must be said. Liverpool deserve a ton of credit. In terms of their attacking, they offered a real threat on the counter in the form of the dazzling Coutinho, big man Christian Benteke […]

Arsenal Starting XI Composed Solely of Transfer Links

Transfer season has its perks for sure, even as an Arsenal supporter. After all, your team could sign their next big star, and while you are waiting for the brilliance of the Prem to get going, it keeps your bordem at a somewhat sane level. Let me tell you though, the transfer window is absolute […]

A Tactical Dissection of Arsenal’s 2-0 defeat to West Ham

Timothy Spenser — Mon, 10 Aug 2015 13:00:27 +0000

I know, it wasn’t supposed to be like this. Cech was supposed to be a rock, Ozil and Santi were supposed to weave through the West Ham defense and the 3 points were supposed to go to Arsenal. It is really easy to blame specific players for the result, especially Cech for his two mistakes, […]
