Smoke screens and squad calls: Arsenal’s countdown to Wembley

By |2026-03-21T08:37:08+00:00March 21st, 2026|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Manager, League Cup, Mikel Arteta|1 Comment

So, we've had the managers both say their piece ahead of tomorrow, and from it we at least know one bit of news - James Trafford will start in goal. I guess the second piece that we also know is that Marc Guehi can't play, but that was already a well-documented situation from the semi-final. [...]

Wembley countdown begins: A look at the City fan mood ahead of a big one…

Right. Now, with the dust having well and truly settled on our Champions League progression, eyes are beginning to shift to that Cup final on Sunday. Sure, we could probably take a moment to laugh at the 'Spurziness' of the Tiny Totts winning their first game of 2026, only for it to be worthless as [...]

The homecoming: Hincapié and Havertz return, but Arsenal must be wary of Leverkusen threat

Half of me really wishes we played last night, so that I could get my fill of Spursiness tonight, because I'm deliberately tempering my humour this morning, because it is a match day for the Arsenal, and I don't want to wake the footballing gods from their slumber to come and give us a kicking [...]

Arteta must ring the changes at Mansfield

Happy match day, Gooners. With today being a bit of respite from the relentlessness of the Premier League, this early kick-off today against Mansfield represents an opportunity not just to potentially enjoy the build-up to an Arsenal match, but also to see some of the lesser-spotted Arsenal players in the starting XI today. Indeed, if [...]

Field Mill and the siege mentality: Resting the big guns for the final sprint

Oh Dear. The Tiny Totts. Blimey. Crystal Palace, who are hardly a team you'd describe as in form, went to the w*nky Tottenham Hotspur and said: Much obliged. My brother is a West Ham fan. On my Dad's side of the family, they are all Hammers. He's been pretty down of late. But I messaged [...]

Mikel’s calm vs. my nerves: Can Arsenal rediscover form in N17?

I don't know why, but I feel more nervous about this game tomorrow than I have done in years. Actually, scrap that, I think I do know why. Firstly, it's because this feels like a game that, unless we win, we may very well be on the verge of being out of a title race [...]

Bottom of the league, but no walkover: Wolves still pose a threat to Arsenal

Morning folks - happy match day. Let's hope it is one in which The Arsenal are blessed with three points. We were all certainly blessed with mostly good news yesterday, as it was all but confirmed that Bukayo Saka has signed his new bumper contract. I was asked to give some comments on that for [...]

Mansfield and Wolves – an opportunity for rotation?

Happy Tuesday boys and girls. Let's start with some FA Cup news, shall we? After all, we did learn last night our fate and opponents in the Fifth Round of the FA Cup and as I hoped for last in yesterday's blog, we got the kind of draw that our compact fixture schedule could probably [...]

Brentford fan thoughts and Eze learning the Arsenal way

With Arteta not doing his presser until today, there's still a bit of time for us to chew the fat over different things, so I thought I'd start today by doing that with the results from last night. Tottenham Hotspur. HAHAHAHAHAHA. I fully realise their next game is against us. I fully realise that there [...]
