Maybe I went too early this week with my statement about ‘statement win’? Nah. I’m happy with what I said. Like I’m happy with what this Arsenal team are doing right now and if you’re somebody who questioned the idea of Tottenham being a statement win given how shocking they were, I bet you’re not [...]
This is a very weird feeling today - about tonight's game I mean. That's because never have I felt more 'ahh it'll be fine' about a game against Bayern Munich than I feel this evening. That's probably why I could never be an elite athlete, to be fair, because aside from the clear and obvious [...]
What should we talk about today folks? More of the North London Derby, you say? Oh well, go on then, seeing as you asked so nicely... I want to start with a convo we had on the Same Old Arsenal pod last night as we were re-living the loveliness of Sunday's Hammering of Them. Well, actually, [...]
Well now, isn't today the most glorious of days, eh? It's 8am, the sun is rising on a crisp November morn and Arsenal are, once again, kings of North London. A dominating North London Derby that saw open play goals, a six point lead at the top opened up, plus a performance from one of [...]
Having spent the whole week lamenting the massive injury crisis that surrounds the North London Derby this weekend, both Arsenal fans and them got a bit more of an inkling as to how actually it's not all as bad as it seemed over the international break.

Firstly, a tip of the cap to the Arsenal Women, who beat Real Madrid again in 2025 in the Champions League. Nice work ladies! Always good to see. As for the men, well, they'll all be back now and the countdown is well and truly on to the North London Derby on Sunday. This is [...]
Yesterday morning I was brushing my teeth and I was thinking about the Big Gabi injury. I thought to myself "it feels like every time we get an injury update from a Fabrizio Romano or an Ornstein Bomba with regards to injuries over the last 12 - 18 months, it's always been worse than is first [...]
With Jurrien Timber the only concern for us last night in terms of injury worries, today becomes a bit of a quiet one, with a number of players playing today, including Big Gabi I suspect at The Emirates stadium, as we host the Selecao against Senegal. It's a bit of a Big Gabi fest in these [...]
So the Arsenal boys did the business last night for England. Not that I was watching. Now that England are qualified these matches become nothing more than glorified friendlies and all that leaves me thinking is: Why the HELL is Saka playing the full 90? Rice was taken off on 65 minutes, so that's good, [...]
