No more “one or two players short” Arsenal

Still nothing on the ol' signings front, but given we're at 13th July and today is our first pre season friendly game (proper one, the one at London Colney with Watford doesn't really count) I'm not going to get bent out of shape. The reality is we're just awaiting the formalities and then all will [...]

What are we going to do about Pepe, eh?

Seen a bit of chatter online on social media and then in a couple of WhatsApp groups I am in about Nicolas Pepe. Whilst a chunk of the Arsenal squad went out to Germany to prep for the first pre season game of the summer against FC Nurnberg tomorrow, there were a few players that [...]

Why Arsenal’s pre season games might actually matter

It's all got a little slow now in terms of goings on at The Arsenal, eh? I mean, there's nothing wrong with that, of course, but speaking as somebody who wakes up in the morning and thinks "I wonder what stuff has been happening, or will happen in the next 24 hours, should occupy my thoughts [...]

How well will Arsenal use the loan market this summer?

Hey kids, how we all doing then, eh? Getting impatient about the lack of Timber and Rice announcements? Yeah, I am kinda too, but there's so much leaking out at the moment that the club are sure to do something today I reckon. We had Jurrien Timber's brother posting a picture of the player in [...]

Smith Rowe must seize this summers opportunity

Morning peeps, hope we’re all good, feeling dandy and looking forward to an enjoyable Sunday? Emile Smith Rowe will be a happy chap oh waking up this morning, won’t he? He and his England under-21 teammates won the under-21 Euros last night and in it he secured himself a lovely ol’ bit of silverware that [...]

Saliba sorted, Dwight Yorke’s random ‘takes’ and chuckling at Chelsea’s attempt for Balogun

Don't mix your alcohol, kids. It will end badly for you. Spoken from a man with plenty of experience and exposure to this scenario. And I'm supposed to be going to a Bruce Springsteen concert later in Hyde Park. Bleugh. Still, on the up side, Arsenal confirmed the contract extension of Big Bill Saliba and [...]

Saliba signs and there’s some chatter about the deal length

We're just getting Ornbomb after Ornbomb at the moment, aren't we? And yesterday's latest explosion was the confirmation of the William Saliba deal, which has been signed, sealed and delivered and I suspect the club are just choosing the right moment to make the announcement, having confirmed Nelson signed a new deal yesterday too. Give [...]

Why are (some) West Ham fans so angry at Arsenal?

This morning I logged in to my Twitter as usual and for the third day in a row I saw a debate that had been retweeted by an Arsenal fan, between West Ham fans, about the whole Declan Rice situation. And I have to tell you, it confused the heck out of me. The debate [...]

Returning faces to London Colney, with an Ornbomb suggesting one more incoming

The Ornbomb has landed and Romano has regaled us, so it seems this saga will soon reach it's conclusion. But at this point I'm not really sure what else there is to say, other than I'm glad it's happening and hopefully we are going to be able to swiftly move on so we can focus [...]
