Let's start with the lovely ol' news that Bukayo Saka has reportedly agreed a new deal worth around £350k-per-week, depending on who you believe. What great news this is to finish a working week! It was announced yesterday via David Ornstein and a few others that pen had been put to paper on a new [...]
Well now. That was one heck of a successful hate-watch midweek edition, wasn’t it? The Scum lost to a last-gasp winner (and the manager tries everything, including being given an Arsenal cup and told to drink from it because they’ve ’bottled’ some of Mikel Arteta’s tactical ju-ju in there Man United can’t hold off Burnley [...]
It's a watching brief for us today and this evening, with our game on tomorrow, but I'd be lying if I said I expected some kind of upset in Manchester. Brighton is a good team; they picked up a win in their last game, but their visits to some of the so-called 'big clubs' of [...]
Morning all, and welcome to the first Monday of 2026. From a working point of view, given I took Friday off, it sucks. But from an Arsenal point of view, well, it has been a pretty successful and enjoyable Monday in which to write about the current situation. I'll be honest with you, at the [...]
For the last few matches I've read a few blogs, listened to a few podcasts and spoken to a few mates, talking about how the performances haven't quite matched the goal threat we have produced. I'm sure you've been exposed to the whole "Arsenal have one goal from 9 xG" narrative as much as I [...]
Happy match day folks - hope we're all good? Well, I say "happy" match day, but we all know that is predicated on whether Arsenal can collect all three points tonight against a red-hot Aston Villa on fine form at the moment, and going into this game feeling like they can beat anybody. And they [...]
It;s Monday, I think, and at some stage between now and midnight we'll get a team update from Mikel Arteta. By which time whatever I say now will probably be old news. So rather than look at what's going on with Arsenal, why don't we have a look at what we might face with Aston [...]
Football, eh? Yesterday the requirements were: Play well Win Arsenal did both of those and yet I don't think you'll find an Arsenal fan alive today who will tell you that felt easy. It very much didn't. The first worry came with the absence of both Calafiori and Timber, as this season and the constant [...]
It’s Brighton at home today in what is sure to be a really tricky encounter for Mikel Arteta’s men. For a number of years now, Brighton have been one of those clubs that you say things like “they play decent football” or “they’re a well-run club,” and over the years at The Emirates, they’ve given [...]
I know it is the EFL cup. I know it's a fixture pile-up in January. And yeah, I know that we have bigger fish to fry in other competitions. But you can't say that when it went to penalties, and those players responded that they didn't want this. They all do. And let's be honest, [...]
