Greetings from Porto! This week I’ve been road tripping through Portugal and today we’re off to the Douro valley for loads of wine and hopefully sunshine, but I wanted to check in because as we all know, yesterday it appears that there were market movements for Brentford’s captain Christian Norgaard. I wrote it on social [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Thursday. It's another glorious day in London today, so I'm bringing my work stuff into the garden and do a proper old school "shall we take our workbooks outside, kids" situation for my working day. Screw it, life is too short. I wonder if that's how Mudryk is feeling today. [...]
It's funny, you know, because whilst lots of people have been hot on Nico Williams, that has never really permeated the football side of my brain. So when Ornstein drops a confirmation that Williams wants Barcelona and that Barca are sorting out the details on a deal, I say "absolutely fine by me". I think [...]
Yesterday I saw - and got my thoughts in too - some stuff online about Zinchenko being a target for AC Milan. And it occurred to me that with all of this chatter about incoming strikers, I haven't really thought about exits that will happen this summer for The Arsenal. We've already sent Neto back, [...]
That pointless tournament in America kicked off last night and did so with the kind of 'bang' I think most of us were hoping for: A boring 0-0 draw. I didn't watch it, but Sky Sports thrust it into my eye-line on their website this morning with a match review, whose highlights included "Messi hit [...]
Is it me, or does it feel like we're in a bit of a transfer washing machine at the moment? Going round and round and round with little changing... All I keep seeing when I log in to sports sites is: Gyokeres' agent and Arsenal still talking or Sesko bid is imminent or Arsenal still [...]
Now it feels like a summer transfer window, eh?!? Arsenal fans getting pulled from pillar-to-post over certain players and situations? And of course it's related to the The Great Striker Hunt of 2025. Which is an evolution of The Great Striker Hunt of 2024. It's a bit like Home Alone 2; they've essentially taken the [...]
I actually switched on the Nations League final yesterday for 15 minutes, just so I could have a quick look at Zubimendi, although I didn't get a glimpse of his goal. I did unfortunately see Ronaldo get the equaliser to make it 2-2 and then prance around for a few minutes afterwards as if he [...]
First thigns first, how about that Mikel Merino bagging himself another goal in what sounds like an absolutely mental international game last night, eh? I saw the goal as it did the rounds on social media last night and it was a well worked piece and a very fine finish from our Spaniard. For somebody [...]
Wednesday mornings, eh? Not quite the weekend, far enough away from last weekend to keep any lingering happy thoughts away, instead if you're a desk jockey like me you face a full day of work knowing that the weekend still lies a little too far beyond touching distance. I'm sure that's why they invented midweek [...]
