I'm back in Blighty following a week in the sun in Portugal, and yesterday I was making the journey back home whilst all the fun was happening for other teams in the Premier League. It's fair to say that so far, there are a few nice surprises that have popped up, whilst equally there are [...]
This is shaping up to be a fun weekend, all things considered, eh? We kicked off with a lovely, comfortable, impressive 3-0 win at home to Coventry on Friday, then yesterday were treated to Man United losing the early game of the day to Hull. Lovely stuff. I hope this doesn't come back to bite [...]
The pundits said 3-0. The fans said 3-0. On the Same Old Arsenal, I said 3-0. In yesterday's blog, I reiterated and said 3-0. But all of that is talk. You still have to go out there on the pitch and do it. And yesterday, against the EFL Champions, Arsenal did just that. Back in [...]
Here we go, people! It's matchday! The Champions - that's us, by the way - kick off the Premier League season tonight with a home game against newly promoted Coventry City, and whilst I am looking forward to it, I'm also gutted that I booked a holiday to Portugal, where my plane leaves at 4pm [...]
So it appears that, as in every summer transfer window, Arteta has got his wish once more...another defender! Ornstein confirmed it, tap-in merchant Romano confirmed it, then the major outlets like Sky Sports confirmed it, with HandOfArsenal going the next level with his Tweet: Deal agreed between Arsenal and Aston Villa in the region of [...]
Ahead of the Premier League kicking off for us on Friday, yesterday was clearly media day at London Colney, because we've had Men in Blazers doing an interview with Arteta, Sky Sports sat down with him, plus Dan Roan from the BBC also talked to Richard Garlick. All of the interviews are worth a watch; [...]
It's the countdown to the start of the season now, and I don't know about you, but I'm really feeling it. The anxiety of getting over the line from last season is gone. We're champions. We're the ones with the gold badge on the arm. We're the club that everyone is looking at and aiming to [...]
I've been off the blog for a week, as the Management and I went to an Italian wedding and then toured Umbria, but back this weekend - and what a lovely thing to come back to yesterday, eh? Before I left for Italy, I was starting to feel like my daily musings were getting a [...]
That was not great, was it? I found a way to watch the game last night against Real Betis, and by the time I'd switched over to watch Live at the Apollo at about 9.45pm, I'd kind of wish I hadn't bothered. Now, what we all have to say is that it is a friendly, so [...]
Looks like Bruno G is on his way. The last horses are crossing the finish line - Newcastle-based journos - and they're now starting to report that he's met new manager Matthias Jaissle, and told him that he wants to make this move, which means it'll be sanctioned for around the £75million mark. So for [...]
