    Not sure where IT got the article from, or whether he's an Arsenal dude, but sure as shit writes well.

    Funny - but I've had the impression recently that Arseblog feels that he has to go too far towards Wenger to be 'credible'. IMO his commercial activities have made him less of an emotional fan.

    Yup. A distinct apologetic stance toward the manager and the board, IMO.

    I get sick of "Still, we may have lost, but luckily there's another game this week, and it's time we pulled our socks up".

    No shit Sherlock.

    It's a bit stale, and smacks of writing for the masses, than writing from the heart.

    Agreed. I get pissed off when supporting your team becomes so anaemic. Still that's what our club has been trying to get us to do. Non?

    Agreed, I've felt this way about his blogging for over a year now. Ever since he released his book and started running competitions in partnership with the club/Fly Emirates, he's begun to deliver the "company line" and fails to deviate from it. It's not necessarily his opinion on Wenger that's particularly annoying, but the way he fails to question the activities of the board and says "it's not our concern what happens in the board room". It's clear that what happens in the boardroom has had a large impact on our failures on the pitch over the last 7 years. He has no issue abusing Usmanov but with regards to Kroenke, it's always the weasel words and phrases such as "questions need to be asked" and he conveniently never gets round to asking those questions.

    He lacks a little bit of sharpness?
