Finally, match day is upon us, having had to wait what feels like an eternity for The Arsenal to arrive after a particularly draggy international break. It's a trip up to Sheffield United and for those of you with memories long enough, that 2006 defeat at Bramall Lane will probably feel a little fresher than [...]
I watched Match of the Day last night and despite rarely agreeing with Alan Shearer, I couldn't help but thoroughly nod my head in agreement with his utter disdain at the decision making for the Watford v Totts game, because once again this season VAR wasn't used properly and the whole world could see just [...]
A Saturday welcome I bid you my friends. Sadly it's one without The Arsenal but I guess it is what it is and we have to contend ourselves with a weekend of supporting every other team that our rivals play. So it's Newcastle and Watford that we'll be hoping to do something special today. And [...]
WE HAVE SOME ARSENAL FIRST TEAM CONTENT PEOPLE!! Thank frigg for that, because that last international break was really getting on my wick. You know how sometimes these breaks can go quite quickly? No, me either, because that one get long. Probably longer than the others. It was maddening. But Unai did his "Good afternoon" [...]
Apparently there was a 'behind-closed-doors' friendly that took place either yesterday or the day before, in which both Bellerin and Özil played, prepping them fitness-wise for upcoming games. I often wonder how they come about you know. Does Unai drop a note to another Premier League Manager and ask them if he wants to come [...]
Effin insomnia. Screw you and screw you again. Jet-lag infused nastiness has meant I've been up since 3am this morning and I've got a long ol' day in the office followed by an evening black tie do. I don't think they make a caffeine-based drink strong enough to be honest. Still, it can't be worse [...]
Cor blimey I'd almost forgotten how much it sucks to set an alarm for work in the morning. I'd also almost forgotten how cold it is, plus the fact that food doesn't come in a variety of beige and deep fried, such is the indoctrination of the American way of life that I've been living [...]
Given that it's matchday and the Management is still sound asleep in the bedroom, I thought I'd pop some pre-game thoughts from Memphis, as I haven't really been doing much on here of late. I blame the fried food. It's addled my brain and thinking processes. And I've had a lot of fried food. And [...]
Howdy from a Gooner Stateside with jet leg. I don't get it - I thought that was only supposed to happen going East, not the other way around, so I'm finding myself beat by 10.30pm and up at 5.30pm at the moment, which is not how I plan on spending my holiday in a place [...]
Happy Saturday folks. I'm about to depart to the US of A for a bit of a holiday and so this will be the last 'normal' time blog for a while I reckon. So what have we had today then? Or more accurately, what went down yesterday? Unami Emery sat in front of the press [...]
