Left side: “The List”

2–3 Welsh players who played for Arsenal, cut out (PNG style, no background)

Stack them slightly overlapping, angled a bit for energy

Add a small white outline or glow around each player so they pop from the red

Right side: “The WAR”

One main mystery player blurred or silhouette with a big “3” over them

Over their face, add a big yellow/orange “🔥” or explosion graphic

This sells the “Number 3 Started A WAR” drama without even saying who it is

Herbie Roberts is one of the great unsung heroes of Arsenal Football Club – a man who literally went from making guns… to becoming a Gunner. 🔴⚪

In this episode, we dive deep into the life and legacy of Herbie Roberts: the gunsmith from Oswestry who became the rock at the heart of Herbert Chapman’s all-conquering Arsenal side of the 1930s.

You’ll hear how Roberts:

Started life as a gunsmith before turning pro

Was snapped up from Oswestry Town for just £200 in December 1926

Fought his way into the team and made 335 starts for Arsenal over 11 years

Anchored the defence in one of the greatest club sides England had ever seen

Won Division One titles in 1931, 1933, 1934 and 1935

Suffered heartbreak missing the 1930 FA Cup final through injury

Found redemption by helping Arsenal beat Sheffield United in the 1936 FA Cup final

Earned an England cap – and why injuries probably cost him more

Had his career cut short by a serious knee injury in October 1937

Stayed at the club as trainer of Arsenal’s Southern League side

Served as a Lieutenant in the Royal Fusiliers during World War Two

Tragically died of erysipelas in 1944, aged just 39

This is Arsenal history through a fan’s eyes – respectful, emotional, and grounded in what the club really means. If you love the Chapman era, old-school centre-halves, and proper football stories, this one’s for you.

Can Arsenal's mental strength survive December's brutal madness and emerge as Premier League champions?

Winter is where title races are won or lost. December's relentless fixture pile-up, injury crises, and psychological pressure separate the champions from the nearly-men. In this video, I'm breaking down Arsenal's mental battle through the toughest month of the season.

As a 54-year-old Gooner who's witnessed Arsenal's highs and lows, I'm diving into:

✅ The psychological toll of December's packed schedule

✅ How Arteta's squad mentality compares to the Invincibles

✅ Managing pressure with Liverpool and Chelsea breathing down our necks

✅ The mental resilience needed when key players get injured

✅ Why surviving winter hell is the ultimate title test

This isn't just about tactics – it's about the championship mindset. Arsenal have the talent, but do they have the mental toughness to go all the way?

There’s a secret hiding in plain sight at the Emirates. It is an illusion, a tactical sleight of hand that Mikel Arteta has perfected, and it’s turning Arsenal into one of the most resilient and adaptable teams in modern football. This isn’t just a new formation or a set of instructions; it's a fundamental philosophy, a way of seeing the game that has been drilled into every single player who wears the cannon on their chest. Opposing managers spend their weeks poring over video, analyzing patterns, and preparing for what they see on the team sheet: a standard, almost classical 4-3-3 formation. They believe they have it figured out. They drill their players on how to press Arsenal’s back four, how to mark their midfield three, and how to track their elusive wingers. They walk out onto the pitch under the bright lights of the Emirates, believing they know the patterns, the movements, and the threats.

But by the time the first whistle has blown, it's already too late. The plan they prepared for is gone, rendered obsolete in the opening exchanges. The certainties they held just moments before have evaporated.

What they are facing is something else entirely. It’s a fluid, morphing entity that has already shifted its form. That 4-3-3 is merely a ghost, a starting position that vanishes the moment Arsenal have possession. It’s a tactical chameleon, changing its colors and shape in real-time. This tactical metamorphosis is not just about flexible players performing interchangeable roles; it's a deliberate, systematic strategy designed to create chaos, to manufacture space where none exists, and to relentlessly exploit any weakness an opponent shows. This is the core of Arteta's new blueprint, a philosophy of structured chaos and controlled aggression born from his time under Pep Guardiola but evolved into something uniquely his own. And today, we’re going to break down exactly how this shape-shifting system works, why it has become Arsenal's defining weapon, and how it is making them a truly formidable force in the hunt for major honors.
