Can you change a winning side? Should you?

There's little time for basking this week, as Champions League is back on the menu and tomorrow night Arsenal take to the pitch in the first of our two-legged tie against Porto for a spot in the quarter final. It's an old-familiar foe for us; during the consistency years of always finishing fourth under Wenger, [...]

Arsenal’s management of minutes could be vital in the next few weeks

It was nice having a Sunday yesterday in which the results of the football didn't really matter. Having done our business on the Saturday and also seeing City and the Scum drop points, it was only Liverpool who got a result that we wouldn't class as delicious and juicy, so I spent my day enjoying [...]

Arsenal get by against PSV in the most rubbery of dead rubbers

Not really sure where to go with today's post match blog musings, to be honest with you, because the situation we - thankfully - put ourselves in by winning all but one of our other Champions league games, meant that yesterday night's dead rubber was the most dead rubbery of all that you're going to [...]

Arsenal can’t go full ‘Disgrace of Gijon’ tonight, but hopefully not too far off

Here cometh another match day, only this one is a little weirder than they usually are, on account of the outcome of tonight's game meaning LITERALLY nothing to anybody involved in Eindhoven. An Arsenal win keeps us top with 15 points. They stay on eight points and if Lens beat Sevilla at home then they [...]

It’s tight towards the top for The Arsenal

Morning folks, hope we're all good? After the midweek of pretty tasty results for us, the weekend fare wasn't quite what we'd have hoped for, as pretty much all the teams around us picked up points and it's dropped us down to second, a point behind Liverpool. But hey, that is always going to happen; [...]

Just the way we like it – routine and professional Arsenal win over Sevilla

If you're going to describe the perfectly professional football match in the Champions League, you'd be hard pressed to describe it any better than how last night's 2-0 win against Sevilla played out. Even the score line itself looks like a comfortable one. A 1-0 result makes you think "ooh, it only takes one corner, [...]

Arsenal need to beware the aerials against Sevilla

I think tonight might be a little trickier than some people might think. Going away to Sevilla and getting the result was good, but for some it might add a false sense of security on the outcome of tonight's match, particularly given our injury problems as it stands. No Timber, no Partey, no Smith Rowe, [...]

The importance of Odegaard and Jesus

Turns out that going Invincible isn't for everyone, eh? Well, if you're going to play that high a line against any Premier League side whilst down to ten men, then you absolutely get what you deserve. But I'll speak no more about them today I think, instead reflecting on what it means for us, because [...]

A solid away day for Arsenal in Seville

You'll have to bear with me today on the usual ramblings, because it was the mother-in-laws birthday yesterday and the whole family was down from the north for a meal. I thought I'd be able to slink off for the second half but that was not the case, so today's perception on the game last [...]
