I watched the WSL opener as I was doing some work in the kitchen yesterday and I have to say, that Olivia Smith lass looks good, doesn't she? That's one heck of a shot she's got on her and if that's the sign of things to come, then Arsenal Women have themselves one heck of [...]
So here we are folks - we're now immersed deep into the mire that is the September international break, with players now away with their national teams and Arsenal's doing all kind of rain dances, prayers and voodoo witchcraft tricks in the hope that we get them all back in one piece. We've already suffered [...]
Morning folks, hope we're all good today? I got too focused on Gabriel Jesus' omission from the Champions League squad yesterday to talk about the topic I actually wanted to zoom in on yesterday, but the good thing about international breaks is that there's always tomorrow to be able to spill over one's thoughts. So, [...]
I was thinking about talking about Gabriel Martinelli today, but before I get to that, there was the small matter of the Champions League squads announced yesterday ahead of the group stages and, unlike in previous years, the news was awash with players who had not made the respective squads for their teams. Spare a [...]
Happy hump day people. The only down side to this particular one, is there is an intolerable international break that is getting in the way, with Arsenal not due again out on the green stuff until the Saturday after this one against Forest. I'm still trying to process the summer transfer window though. I'm focusing [...]
Well that's it then. The summer of plenty for The Arsenal ended last night with the capture of Piero Hincapie and the exits of Jakub Kiwior to Porto, Reiss Nelson to Brentford, Sambi Lokonga to Hamburg for around £10million, Fabio Vieira on loan to Hamburg and Olekzandr Zinchenko to Forest right at the death. Let's [...]
The overriding feeling I have this morning is one of frustration. Frustration that we didn't remove the hoodoo of not winning at Anfield. Frustration that we didn't make a solid first half a great second. Frustration at the injuries. Frustration at a prevailing media narrative that 'Arsenal got what they deserved', like we didn't cancel [...]
Happy Hincapie Saturday folks! Although Arteta was tight-lipped on that arrival, the Ornbomb has already dropped and it appears we're loan-optioning him for the season and clearly we'll drop the actual cash on Leverkusen's lap in the summer of 2026, which makes sense given that we probably don't have the cash lying around to make [...]
It's the tie we all dreamed of, let's be honest: PortVale away in the third round of the League Cup at Vale Park. In all seriousness though, this is quite a nicetie for all involved. I couldn't remember the last time we went there, I had a feeling it was about 20 years ago and [...]
With it being Wednesday and still a good four days until the game against Liverpool, I've still been drinking in some of the Eze stuff, whilst also watching the odd tactical review of the game against Leeds. I said before that game that I thought it was difficult to know what Leeds team would turn [...]
