Does Eze have until January to seize the moment?
Can Eze find some form before the January window hits and Arsenal start looking for a left winger to fill any gaps missing in what Arteta needs?

Running hot
Apologies for the radio silence for a bit. Left my laptop in a black cab on Friday and have been trying to find ways to do work and blogging with as minimal disruption as possible. It means I’m tapping away at the iPad for now, which isn’t ideal, but enough about my problems in the [...]

Job done at home to Hull. Just.
We all knew what it would probably be like. I talked about it on Friday when I did some analysis on what sort of football Hull City play; it’s direct, they go long to McBurnie, they try to put crosses in and they will play with a back five. Hull aren’t in the best of [...]

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 [...]

From Anfield to Prague, there’s no time to waste
It's kind of wild to me the reaction from Liverpool fans to the result on Sunday. Yes, by all means be mad at the VAR and the general ineptitude from re-branded PROREF, but coming at Arsenal fans as if it's our fault that a penalty decision was missed is a bit rich. These are fans [...]

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 [...]
