We're around 36 hours (at the time of writing) away from the Transfer Window closing tomorrow evening, but thankfully for me, anyway, I'm less bothered about those goings-on and more bothered about what happens on the pitch tonight at Villa Park. We're at match week two all but completed, and the two familiar faces that [...]
This is shaping up to be a fun weekend, all things considered, eh? We kicked off with a lovely, comfortable, impressive 3-0 win at home to Coventry on Friday, then yesterday were treated to Man United losing the early game of the day to Hull. Lovely stuff. I hope this doesn't come back to bite [...]
I've been off the blog for a week, as the Management and I went to an Italian wedding and then toured Umbria, but back this weekend - and what a lovely thing to come back to yesterday, eh? Before I left for Italy, I was starting to feel like my daily musings were getting a [...]
I gotta say, I do like that third kit, maybe even better than the away one. I guess it's just because I'm a sucker for a red and white home shirt (sacred, so doesn't change, apart from the cranberry year that we moved away from Highbury), and a yellow and blue away shirt, so this [...]
Happy Monday Gooners, and welcome to a new week, in which we are all hoping for some Bruno G news no doubt. But I sawe something yesterday suggesting that there was another Brazilian (not that one!) that we were interested in Joao Pedro from Chelsea. Makes sense; Arsenal have an unhealthy obsession with getting that [...]
We have some actual football to chew over and, I tell you what, there were some great finishes yesterday as Arsenal beat Girona 4-1. I liked Dowman's performance, who assisted for Kai's smart finish, then also bagged a good effort from the edge of the box. For all the talk of new signings, yesterday was [...]
It's the weekend, so we all need a little excitement for it, right? Yes, there's a game on today as Arsenal take on Girona, but you and I both know that isn't the first thing that popped into your mind - was it? Step forward our guy HandOfArsenal: 🚨 EXCL : Arsenal Football Club have [...]
Do you know what's nicee? Seeing pictures of players in pre-season training. And important players too. Until you see them, you have a question mark over whether they are still on holiday, what their fitness is like, etc. But yesterday Arsenal released some training pics, and there was Big Gabi, huge grinning teeth, as the [...]
So...Vini Junior, eh? Did you see that coming? I certainly didn't, but Messrs Ornstein and McNicholas dropped an Athletic Bomba on our social media feeds, and yesterday was spent with Arsenal fans recalibrating their 'dream starting XI' for next season, with the Brazilian superstar firmly placed in it on that left wing. It's exciting, isn't [...]
It's Saturday The Arsenal have still not kicked off matches yet, so my hope is that they are using the time effectively to "Spend some faaaakin' money!". A bit of a blast-from-the-past phrase to bust out, I know, but you'd hope Andrea Berta is somewhere doing something to augment the squad soon. Tzolis was a [...]
