Happy Monday to you lovely Gooners. How we all doing today? I see that the media love-in for Man United has started.

Well now, I tell you what, if you could pick out a perfect Saturday to have as an Arsenal fan, you couldn't have done much better than what we were treated to yesterday in the heat of the August sun at the Emirates yesterday. The weather was sublime, the crowd were upbeat and excitable with [...]

We talked about a wealth of [...]

There's nothing really going on that's any different today in the Arsenal world, unfortunately. Everything feels very 'samey' if I'm honest. Tielemans is still rumbling around as a rumour. Nothing new on Lisandro Martinez. Sergei Milinkovic-Savic is still bubbling away. I mean, there are nuances in which journos are trying to keep their news ticking [...]
