Morning folks, how we all doing? Looking forward to tomorrow night's slugfest against Everton? Because let's face it, it will be a slugfest. It will be a gruelling, grinding, low-blocking, frustration of an evening as Everton try to double up on our wide forwards, they camp on the edge of their own box with bodies, [...]

Morning fellow Arsenal fans, hope you're all good? Where are you at in terms of the unpleasantness hat happened over the weekend - still mad? I kind of am, but I'm also pleased that the appropriate media response has come out about the situation, which I think has been helped by the few ex-Arsenal players [...]

Well good morning to you, fellow - very happy - Gooner! I'd pretty much downed tools on the ol' blog front on account of getting up late every morning in a beautiful tropical island and just wanting to drink cocktails and sit by the pool, but having arrived yesterday just as the game was in [...]

With the Christmas weekend now upon us, we have been granted some lovely ol' content presents from Arsenal, as Arteta faced the press yesterday ahead of the  West Ham game on Monday night. First and foremost, the injury and player availability was the first thing he was quizzed on and the music to all Arsenal [...]

Time to axe the 3pm football blackout

Little Saturday morning rant from a UK based Arsenal supporter. I find it utterly ludicrous that in this day and age, with the TV companies dictating so much, trying to eek every possible penny from the Premier League, that tomorrow's game against Leeds is not on television. Where is the logic there? In fact there [...]

The good vibes just keep on coming this season and yesterday evening, under the fading light of the October sky, The Arsenal knocked down another one of those media narratives that had plagued us in recent years: "Can't beat the truly top teams like Liverpool or Man City" Oh yes we can. Oh yes we [...]

Arteta coy on injuries as usual

Morning folks - we  all good? It was press conference day at The Arsenal yesterday and that meant an opportunity to get some updates from Mikel Arteta on the team, the Queen, as well as our opponents Brentford on Sunday, for which three points is the dream. Unsurprisingly for Arteta he didn't really tell  us [...]

Is overcoming the scars of Old Trafford easier for Arsenal players than fans?

Howdy friends, how are we all doing? Looking forward to the game tomorrow? Not me, I have to say, because I've thoroughly enjoyed the bliss of five consecutive victories and the thought that it might come crashing down against United - like it always seems to when we go up there - makes me a [...]

How quietly confident can Arsenal be against a tricky Leicester side?

Match day! Before I go in to the nuances of the game today, as well as Mikel Arteta's press conference yesterday, please allow me to indulge in a bit of smugness, having spent an hour in Alan Smith's presence last night for the Same Old Arsenal podcast yesterday evening. We talked about a wealth of [...]

Morning fellow Gooners, we alright? If you're UK based, you holding up ok in the heatwave, or are you excited to get out there this weekend in the sun? Do you know, I think this might be the hottest match I've witnessed at The Emirates? Can't wait. I really can't wait. I'm super excited about [...]
