It’s the big one today and, as I suspected but didn’t say, the butterflies and nerves for this game against City later on are starting to kick in. Arsenal travel to Manchester trying to do something we haven’t managed to do in nine previous attempts in all competitions. You have to go back eight years [...]
I never normally watch the opposition match press conference, but given the build up to this massive game tomorrow and given how significant it could impact both City and Arsenal's season, I thought I'd have a little sneak peak at pep's comments in his presser. Obviously I was also intrigued on how he delivered news [...]
It's Good Friday, we've just finished off a bit of a preview pod on the Same Old Arsenal podcast (you can have a look here), we've got ourselves a press conference from Mikel Arteta coming up at some stage today and then he'll give us a low down on where the team is at and [...]
So, we're done with this frigging pointless friendlies and, as suspected Gareth Southgate kept Declan Rice on the pitch for the full 96 minutes last night. I flicked on and awatched about 10 minutes of the first half as I was cooking to see Pickford have a howler, then I heard about Lewis Dunk's howler, [...]
Morning Gooners and happy Monday to you and yours. As anticipated I went on a proper bender on Saturday night and so was not fit to do anything other than lie on the sofa feeling sorry for myself yesterday, but I'm back amongst the living today - just - and thankfully it seems so are [...]
So it looks like the second international hurdle has been overcome this week; it appears that Odegaard did 86 minutes and came off and I'm not seeing any news of any knocks, so that's all gravy. Sadly Haaland also played 75 minutes so noises of his supposed injury - whilst he also quashed himself in [...]
Morning Gooners, hope we're all good? Happy Friday and all that jazz. I had a weird ol' dream last night, I gotta tell ya. Leeds United and Brighton teamed up to play us in a Premier League game at Elland Road, which the Premier League allowed obviously (must have been too focused on chucking out [...]
Another one of the current crop tied down, as Arsenal announced that Takehiro Tomiyasu has extended his stay with the club by signing a new deal. And it was a lovely video that the club posted to announce it too: Dedication. Determination. Tomiyasu ✍️ pic.twitter.com/2Q6kGZWNza — Arsenal (@Arsenal) March 20, 2024 We all love Tomi, [...]
With still little going on of any substance from an Arsenal perspective, I thought I'd have a little look in to the current run in we've got until the end of the season and make some assumptions on what I think might happen. Of course none of it will actually happen, because I'm one of [...]
Morning Gooners, how we all doing on this Tuesday morn? Are you glass half empty or glass half full kind of feeling? The reason I ask is after the new yesterday that Gabriel has withdrawn from the upcoming Brazilian national team friendlies that they have coming up over the next week. On the one hand [...]
