Howdy peeps, hope we're all doing well on this Thursday ahead of a trip to Turf Moor for one of those most precious of things: A 3pm kick off. Obviously I prefer it when it's at home, but these days with the ability to 'find ways' to watch or listen to football anywhere, it's less [...]
Well, here we are, ladies and gents. Time to strap ourselves in because this is the big one and this is a test that this Arsenal team simply must pass if it wants to be in contention for the top honours going in to the end of the season. The period over Christmas in which [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Thursday, as we tick ever-closer towards that game against Palace for the 12.30pm kick off on Saturday lunchtime. I'd asked for a marginal gain of Everton and Palace going to extra time last night and whilst it was unfortunate that it never happened, the fact that Palace put out a strong [...]
Cor blimey it's cold in London right now. I'm sure many of you are from places that would consider the weather we've got in the UK 'mild', but my body isn't designed for minus temperatures and when I have to wear five layers for my morning run, that's really hitting home for me, that's for [...]
Yesterday I saw the news emanating from a few sources that Thomas Partey is close to a return to the side and that the club are potentially earmarking the Nottingham Forest game as a match in which he could play a part.

Perhaps it is because we're in to this winter break period and that means a fair bit of introspection and over thinking, but when I was out on my morning run in the cold suburbs of West London this morning, I started thinking to myself about our current position in the league and started to [...]
In some sort of twisted dark humour attempt at comedy my timeline on Twitter reminded me just now that on this day in 2007 we went to Anfield and put six goals past Liverpool to make it through to the League Cup Semi Final. Julio Baptista, Alex Song and Jeremie Aliadiere all got on the [...]
Been spending the last few days travelling all over the place, so haven't had the chance to write much about the shambles that our Arsenal Christmas has been since the good and battling point at Anfield. On 23rd December I thought "take that, we're top, things are looking good" but having witnessed such a poor [...]
Here we are folks. A festive match day is upon us and just as I suspected, all of that excitement ahead of this top of the table clash against Liverpool this evening, has been replaced by a nervousness. And it is a top of the table clash this evening because depending on the result today, [...]
Howdy peeps and welcome to Thursday. The countdown is on and we're just a couple of days away until arguably the toughest away fixture of the season right now: Liverpool away. Under normal circumstances you might think that it would be Man City away, but their form this season is such that you just don't [...]
