Hello Friends and Readers, Mike back with another edition of the Arsenal Round up for you wonder people of Pitch Talk, apologises for the long delay in blogging but I have been extremely busy with my other passion Storm FM (The Online Radio station that I Run), hope everyone is doing well and is enjoying the season so far.
My Views on Arsenal FC.
Back in 2012 Myself alongside most Arsenal fans were fearing the worst for the club, no trophy in 8 seasons, selling a number of our star individuals and losing the bigger games, this even continued into the start of the 2013-14 season with a shock 1-3 defeat at the hands of Aston Villa which may have been the final straw for Arsene Wenger.
With the transfer window drawing to a close and only Yaya Sanogo signing for us Arsenal fans would have been forgiven for thinking that it was going to be another long season.
But Then Mr Wenger pulls out a couple of stops which both could equally be as good pieces of business as each other, firstly resigning Matthieu Flamini and then dipping into the transfer market to sign Mesut Ozil. both players have made an impact in their time at the club us Arsenal fans are already familiar with the work Flamini does for the cause he is a rock in front of the back 4 and a great organiser and when we signed him I was expecting the same and so far he hasn't disappointed at all, as for Ozil he has some great touches, hes a wonderful passer of the ball and he can score goals and is definitely the man who opposition will need to play close attention to as he has the ability to make something out of nothing.
There was no doubt that these signings played a big part in the run that was to follow alongside the magnificent form of Aaron Ramsey who himself looks like a brand new signing on the back of finally returning to his best after his long term injury suffered at Stoke back in 2010.
Arsenal fans were crying out for that Big name signing all the way through the transfer window and when Ozil Signed it straight away brought a buzz back into everyone associated with Arsenal Football Club, Could this be the season that Arsene Wenger wins that illusive silverware that he has let slip so often of late, could he bring success to Arsenal in what could be his final season, these are all questions that will get answered in my blogs over the next couple of weeks and months.
At this present moment in time as I am writing this blog we are currently sitting in top spot in the Premier League after a 4-1 home victory over Norwich City with Ozil scoring 2 of the goals, Wilshire scoring the first and another Goal from the On Fire Man Aaron Ramsey with Jonny Howson pulling a goal back for Norwich with the score at 2-0 to the Arsenal.
Some Arsenal fans might say in response to this We might be top of the league but the only Big Team we have played in the league is Tottenham and to be fair to them I'd have to say I agree, but its also about consistency something that this Arsenal side have shown by collectively picking up 19 points from 21 in the League after the defeat by Aston Villa on the opening day, off course bigger tests are to come but in my opinion this is like watching the Arsenal of old, I Am feeling the confidence from this team and with each result the confidence is only going to get stronger.

I will though wait to reserve my final Judgement until the End of May but at this present moment in time the future is looking much more rosy than this time on Saturday 17th of August, Maybe that's the kind of result that the players needed to really kick start their season and go on to win trophies. Lets hope so!
Altogether Now
We're Top of The League!!!!!
