We're nearly there folks. International football is nearly in our rear view mirror. Well, for at least month, that is. But it appears on face value as though this latest round of games as been positive, so let's run through who did what, shall we? Starting off with the mid-morning kick off our time with [...]

Odegaard’s absence can be absorbed, but only just

I think we're going to get to the point in which, despite having stockpiled a billion players over the summer, this squad is soon going to start looking thin. Such is the curse with injuries we are getting, with Odegaard now rumoured to be out until after the next international break in November, that if [...]

Calafiori’s very different look in an Italian shirt

The Arsenal Women provided the dosage of Arsenal football for many Gooners yesterday, albeit through the lens of a somewhat underwhelming 1-0 win over Brighton at home I hear. I say that mainly because I was out and about so couldn't watch the game, but I kept track on my phone and with Chelsea already [...]

Mikel Merino and the ‘horses for courses’ debate

How we all doing? Surviving the Interlull so far? I've been alright, actually, thanks for asking. I filled my day yesterday with 'other stuff' and didn't even switch on Sky Sports once for an extended watch of something. I'm going proper old-skool today and going to the circus with the management this afternoon (No, not [...]

Avoiding the Interlull: Talking about stadium seats

By |2025-10-09T07:45:05+01:00October 9th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, finances, gooners, Gunners, History|2 Comments

I was too focused yesterday on what I wanted from the international break from an Arsenal perspective, that I didn't even talk about the stadium expansion that's been talked about for the last couple days, so as I try desperately to fill my thoughts and this blog on Arsenal stuff so I can avoid talking [...]

Things I’d like to see from this international break…

With the Interlull tedium now fully enveloping us all, as I was on my morning run, I was thinking about "what are the best possible outcomes for The Arsenal for this upcoming international break/weekend?" I have concluded that the following would be rather nice: Calafiori's legs don't implode Last season it felt like every time Riccardo [...]

Looking ahead to the ‘Build’ chunk of games

By |2025-10-07T10:12:54+01:00October 7th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, premier league|0 Comments

With the interlull now upon us, I'm minded to start looking ahead to the few week's after this interminable international break has concluded because frankly, I have zero interest in seeing what England side has been patched together because Liverpool, Chelsea, United and City have all withdrawn players with minor 'injuries'. On the Same Old [...]

Odegaard’s injury was a freak, but the volume of games teams are playing tells a different injury story

By |2025-10-06T07:58:01+01:00October 6th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, injuries, premier league|0 Comments

To continue the theme for this season, which feels like a bit of a hangover from last season's luck, we find ourselves once again asking: Are we not allowed nice things? Arsenal confirmed that Martin Odegaard had suffered medial collateral ligament damage on Saturday with his clash of knees in the game against West Ham. [...]
