That was about as much fun as the weather last night. Arsenal had an opportunity to really lay down a marker against an injury-hit, beleaguered, and not really in form (despite what the ‘unbeaten run will tell you) Liverpool team. And they just didn’t take it. The opportunity was there, and no such marker was [...]
Morning Gooners, we all good? I have to admit, I was kind of sad that I didn't watch the batshit-mental football match last night that was Man United 4 - 4 Bournemouth. Looks like a Christmas hum-dinger of a game and one in which I saw Jamie Carragher describe it as "the best of the [...]
After the final results from yesterday's 2pm kick offs was confirmed, I had a quick check in to see what the 'vibes' were like and to my surprise, there was a lot of doom and gloom going on amongst some corners of The Arsenal fanbase. I saw people saying it's City's title, that they'd win [...]
Howdy folks, hope we're all good? I thought that the catharsis of the Same Old Arsenal pod last night with James and Amanda would help me to understand my feelings over that Chelsea result, but I'm still no nearer to breaking it down. I think that's because City ultimately beat Leeds and so it feels [...]
With City inevitably picking up their three points against Leeds at home yesterday, Arsenal are reminded just how slender these advantages can be with what lies ahead of us today: An in-form Chelsea team with an opportunity to throw their hats into the ring as title contenders by beating us on their own patch. So [...]
Well now, isn't today the most glorious of days, eh? It's 8am, the sun is rising on a crisp November morn and Arsenal are, once again, kings of North London. A dominating North London Derby that saw open play goals, a six point lead at the top opened up, plus a performance from one of [...]
Couple of bits for us to dig into today, starting with Sky Sports reporting that there are a few clubs monitoring his situation after he's been warned by Thomas Tuchel that he needs to play more to make the World Cup. I have a few feelings on this. Firstly, the lad is 19-years-old. This isn't [...]
Match day ten this season brings about yet another familiar challenge to it that we have faced for some years now: An away day low block. It used to be a tenet of Premier League football that when teams are at home, they are a little more expansive; their fans urge them to drive forward, [...]
Well now, that turned out to be a very Arsenal-friendly weekend in the end, eh? Perhaps not the 'perfect' weekend, as the Scum still won, but good enough that we can look at the table after nine games and see three defeats for City and four for Liverpool, who sit six and seven points off [...]
Having successfully navigated and thoroughly enjoyed Hate Watch Saturday, I am now fully focused on match day Sunday and I gotta tell ya, the nerves are proper kicking in already. Last season, every time Liverpool slipped up, we weren't able to capitalise. I remember seeing that Liverpool had slipped up in match week 16 and drawn [...]
