It's match day, people, and the nerves have, once again, properly kicked in. Arsenal have it all within their own power to win a Premier League title. Just two wins. Just two wins. Sounds simple, right? Well, yes, the logic of it is. Arsenal start the first half of this two-part challenge tonight against Burnley, [...]

The Arsenal are trying to kill me

I have aged. How is this becoming MORE stressful each week? How on earth are we STILL being put through the wringer? Honestly, my nerves are shot to pieces. My heart rate has been getting up to cardio-load levels during games. Then, when you have an ending like that yesterday, it goes up a notch [...]

West Ham away: The banana skin that could define Arsenal’s season

I watched the Man City game yesterday until Haaland scored their second goal, before switching off, so I've seen Bernardo Silva punching Brentford defender Collins. I missed the DOGSO with Nunes on Schade, but I'm not surprised - PGMOL have consistently shown that some teams get more of the rub of the green than others. [...]

It's Friday, it's the start of the weekend (nearly), and it's West Ham on Sunday, knowing that by the time we kick off, we'll know if Brentford have gotten anything from Man City for the 5.30 pm kick off (they won't). So, what of West Ham then, eh? Well, there are plenty of Arsenal fans [...]

There are nights that you remember for the rest of your life. Last night was one of them. In anyone's life, there are lots and lots of things that change. School, job, friends, where you live, your health, your money situation - loads. But some things are constant. For me, my family is obviously the [...]

How much will Arteta rotate against Atletico Madrid?

I’ll be honest, I had ‘hopes’ that Everton could get something at home to 115 Charges FC, but I don’t think there was much expectation there. City were on a good run of form, they’ve wine their last three Premier League games, as well as beating us in the League Cup and getting to the [...]

Big Vik and Saka inspire Fulham win

Ahh man, I have a stinking hangover this morning, all caused by The Arsenal. I'm in Portugal and, to try to completely forget about the stress of football, I asked the parents and The Management if we could go out and have a lovely lunchtime meal in Tavira, where my parents' place is. They obliged. [...]

Fulham at home: Don’t let this be ‘one of those days’

As is our situation right now, you, like I, no doubt, have a very nervous feeling in the stomach. We've been living this way for months, truth be told, so whilst this feeling of dread ahead of every Arsenal game is not new, it doesn't get any easier. I read comments like "Fulham have never [...]

Atlético Madrid preview: Calm before the storm or calm because of It?

I almost feel guilty for what I am about to write. I don't really feel massively nervous about tonight. It almost feels like a League Cup game. I suspect it is because I've been battered and bruised by the Premier League campaign that the Premier League is the 'one I want' the most, coupled with [...]

Fixture politics and fragile fitness

It seems there's a bit of a fixture argument going on with Man City. Well, not so much an argument, but rather a 'discussion', if the reports are to be believed, for which City wants to play Bournemouth in their rearranged fixture slot before Palace. I didn't really understand the significance of that until I [...]
