Can anyone recommend any good Arsenal books

Seriously Mesut Ozil's Gunning for Greatness is a good read.

Ozil believes he had “a perfect game” against Everton in the 2014 FA Cup quarter-final.
“I felt as if I were holding a magic wand," he says about The Gunners' 4-1 win, "that I could use to direct the game as I pleased.”

Ozil calls this ‘altered perception’. In explaining what he means, he describes a scenario where four opponents are rushing towards him.

“It’s as if they're running at me in slow motion and I’m able to react to their movement in real time - a little bit like Keanu Reeves in The Matrix, when he dodges bullets that are fired at him.”

Recommend the paperback version.

This was good (it’s the Bergkamp one for anyone who doesn’t know). Arseblog’s book was decent iirc. The Henry biography wasn’t very interesting.

Perry Groves one is the best.
Ray Parlours is pretty decent.
Amy Lawrence's book on the Invincibles is decent. She also has one on the Wenger years which I haven't read.
James Leightons biography on Rocky was a bit hard work at times.


Heard good things about Alan Smith's one. Didn't think too much of Wright's, Adams or Mersons - although I think there are newer ones than I read.

Bergkamp and Vieiras were okay too.

Not an Arsenal only book (though they’ll feature quite heavily I’m sure) but David Squires’s ‘Goalless Draws’ is meant to be really good.
