With the clock ticking down on the start of the season, it appears the club are trying to sort out those deals to finalise the team for 2024/25 and yesterday we got one or two titbits from some of the respected journo's about where we are at with some of the outgoings, specifically. On Eddie [...]

Arsenal’s strong transfer bargaining position is a welcome sight

Happy Tuesday campers, we all good? Tomorrow the team line up against Leverkusen in our penultimate friendly before the season kicks off properly and it'll be the return of Xhaka who I'm sure will get a good reception. I suspect Arteta might do something today, maybe not a press conference (or maybe he will?) but [...]

The Smith ends his Arsenal era, with Eddie potentially next out

We knew the day would come, we've been speaking about it for a while, but yesterday it was confirmed that Emile Smith Rowe, ESR, 'The Smith', left Arsenal signed for Fulham on a permanent transfer. I don't think I've seen such a universal sadness from Arsenal fans for a player who had essentially become a [...]

Some Merino-shaped Arsenal thoughts

Happy Monday folks, we all good? It'll no doubt be a Riccardo Calafiori-infused week for us ahead of the Liverpool game and I'm sure that no sooner have I hit 'publish on today's ramblings, that they club will have announced his arrival. I guess it doesn't matter too much; we've said all there is to [...]

Plenty of positives from Arsenal’s pre season performance

That's the second pre season game of the season done in the early hours of the morning my time and it was a 2-1 win for our lads against Erik "I AM FURIOUS ABOUT ARSENAL AND OFFSIDES" Ten Haag's Man United. You love to see it. He was apparently unhappy about our equaliser, which game [...]

Arteta all but confirms ESR’s exit, but does it lead to some amortisation goodness?

Happy Friday folks. For me it's a Friday in which I am slightly worse for wear, on account of going to Wembley Stadium to see The Boss (not Mikel) bust out his tunes, so naturally I had a few beers whilst listening to Bruce Springsteen. I gotta tell you, felt a little weird being in [...]

Calafiori goes Stateside, as ESR heads to West London

As  somebody who didn't stay up until 3.30am this morning to watch the Arsenal versus Bournemouth friendly game that went on in the early hours of the morning (UK time), it's very difficult for me to make a proper assessment. I'll level with you; I haven't even seen the two goals scored in the 1-1 [...]

Calafiori might spell Kiwior’s exit, but Arsenal don’t have to be forced into being lowballed…

The sloth edges ever closer to his tree, the perfect spot for his resting place... That's what it feels like with this Calafiori deal, eh? Last night another couple of journalists dropping the "here we go!" soundbites, in an eagerness to be the 'first past the post' in declaring a transfer confirmed. At this stage [...]

Arsenal’s truncated transfer period

Just a few short days after the final and Gareth Southgate has decided to step down as England manager. And I always find the narrative in the media and on social media as quite interesting when this sort of stuff happens. Suddenly everyone is out saying what a fantastic job he did, how he did [...]

Smith Rowe could go, but do Arsenal need to watch the home grown situation?

By |2024-07-16T08:41:29+01:00July 16th, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, gooners, Gunners, pre season, Transfers|0 Comments

Morning folks and welcome to Tuesday, where the whirring of the transfer window appears to be up and running already, it seems. Last night it was Emile Smith Rowe's turn to be thrust into the spotlight, as Sky Sports ran with a story that Fulham and Palace are both interested in his signature. That's probably [...]
