“Suitably cosmopolitan, has Arsenal connection in common with Graham if not Wenger or Herbert Chapman. This “supposed DNA” and “current DNA” invented by the Telegraph, and in which they are suggesting Arsenal supporters have some sort of unified vision which they follow like sheep, is mindless tripe.Īs for the section on “Current managerial suitability” Gibbs writes Now that lack of knowledge by the writer tells us a lot about the way journalists report Arsenal – they seize on an attribute they imagine, agree it between themselves by reading each other’s articles, and then endlessly pump out the stories that are set up to bolster that image. Six times in eight years we had a leading scorer who got 24+ goals, but also once our leading scorer got just 13.

The number of goals scored in the league varied between 40 goals, through four seasons in which we got around 50, and three seasons in which we got between 73 and 81. His time is often described as a period where defences were all that mattered – but in fact the period under Graham was very varied. Sadly Chapman’s revolution is regularly denigrated into the journalistic simplicity of “three at the back”, whereas it actually involved a defender who could pass quickly to a midfielder who could pass quickly to a winger – a fast and accurate move from defence, totally different from the standard “back to the keeper who lumps it up the field” approach of his day.īut let’s consider George Graham as Arsenal manager. What Wenger and Chapman both brought to Arsenal was leadership and a revolutionary approach – Wenger with his importation of unknown European players such as Vieira and Henry, Chapman with his tactical invention following the change in the offside rule. Now I would say that is the reverse of the truth. Doing well, but not really dispelling the sense that the club has an enduring lack of leadership.” Of Arteta they say he “has Arsenal connection in common with Graham if not Wenger or Herbert Chapman. Now there are a few problems here, not least of which is that football journalism in England moves en masse, as we can see by its failure to engage in the discussion about the fact that Arteta cut Arsenal’s yellow card total in half between one season and the next, or the fact that PGMO regularly gives Arsenal matches to referees who have previously waved a lot of yellow cards at Arsenal players, while not re-engaging referees who don’t.

Their point is, Arsenal has an identity crisis because fans were “ traumatised by the drift of later Wenger” and poor, pathetic easily led fans would “re-embrace George Graham football if it meant getting back into the Champions League.” This “identity crisis” then “explains the febrile mood of their noisy online fanbase during every bad run of form.” But this article suggests DNA is fixed and eternal which is just plain wrong. Of course all clubs change over time, through changing the ownership, the directors, and the club manager, which is a bit like DNA which mutates through the generations. I’m just getting all the information I can together (which takes a little time since none of it appears in the English media), but for now I’ll focus on the increasingly bizarre Daily Telegraph which has done an even weirder piece than normal on the “DNA” of Premier League clubs (as a way of distracting from the news they won’t cover.)

So, the story that you won’t find covered in the English media (due to its endless desire to kowtow to Qatar and the FA): Qatar’s World Cup Committee, so ably and willingly supported by the English FA, is threatening court action against Josimar, the Danish publication that has been revealing human rights abuses in Qatar in relation to the building of the World Cup stadia.įor the English media nothing must get in the way of a successful media campaign ahead of the world cup, with the BBC and ITV, plus the newspapers, having invested heavily in the competition. I’ll start with the recent World Cup news after that there is the latest media attempt to denigrate Arsenal.
