Hull tomorrow: The numbers suggest a very familiar Arsenal challenge…

I've lived in fear of one thing since the start of the season: Having to be a recipient of that utterly tragic and awful "you're getting mauled by the Tigers" chant that the Hull City fans busted out against United and do on a regular basis when they are ahead. It's so cringey, it must [...]

A good night in Prague (eventually)

What a fascinating game that was last night. Fascinating because Arsenal had control for pretty much the entire game, let their opponents in a bit more in the second half, took the foot off the gas a bit, then found themselves with a nervy few minutes after Slavia Prague scored late, giving their players and [...]

The Death Run is coming, and everybody’s going to be needed

Mikel Arteta had his pre-match press conference, and the big news from yesterday of course, is that William Saliba is back training with the group. Apparently, he's broken all records (Mikel didn't say that; just what I read elsewhere) to get fit, so now it's just a matter of when he gets integrated. And the [...]

An Arsenal statement of intent at Anfield

Well, now, that was a great Sunday afternoon, wasn't it? Arsenal went up to Anfield, a place that is traditionally a painful experience; they went to a ground that normally sees the home fans come away happy, and us trudge home; they went to the North West, where we don't usually fare too brightly, and [...]

The Arsenal curse of Anfield: time to put it to bed

There are just three match days I absolutely hate. Today is one of them. The other two are: The NLD away - just hate the stakes, even when they are shit and we've beaten them on their own ground for the last couple of seasons The Emptihad - because, like Anfield, we just never win [...]

A few headaches ahead of a big afternoon at Anfield for The Arsenal

Happy Saturday, kids. How are we all feeling? I had a Turkish last night; they gave us an extra meal by mistake, so I'll not say I'm in the finest of forms. A couple of bottles of Bordeaux didn't quite help the situation either. Anyway, we must make do with what we've got, and what [...]

Anfield pessimism is hard to shake

Happy Friday, boys and girls. Do you ever have those weeks where it feels like it's absolutely flown by? That's me this week. Which is a good thing that the Fleetwood game happened earlier in the week, because I've been able to mitigate the 'banter' damage from friends and family, whilst also moving on myself [...]

Sometimes you just have to take your licks

We gotta take our licks this morning, boys and girls, because we're out of the League Cup to a team who are down there in League Two currently fighting off a relly scrap. That's the media narrative that will be peddled today and, if we're honest, sometimes you just have to accept it. Like Chester [...]
