So we have our first adrenaline shot of transfer morphine, as Christos Tzolis signs for The Arsenal to replace the departing 'Mr Clutch' Leo Trossard. It's a good move. It's a sensible move. Only time will tell if it's an upgrade, but at £34million - and it still feels crazy to say this - it's [...]
Now that we know that Big Bill Saliba is out for an 'extended period', Arsenal's need for a little more expediency in the transfer market has become even more acute. We all already knew, in reality, because we've been hearing the stories from the French press. But as an Arsenal fan, you still await to [...]
Chelsea really are like the little baby brother who cries for attention, aren't they? It's quite amusing, actually. And Morgan Rogers doing his "I've joined the biggest club in London" schtick was funny too. Mate, pull the other one, it's got bells on. The club you just joined finished 10th, you act more like a [...]
Having spent the last few weeks worrying about how many of our players are going to come back from the World Cup in one piece, yesterday it was nice to see a training video released of some of those players not at the competition return to pre-season training yesterday. The most pleasing of all has [...]
I missed what appeared to be quite an entertaining game yesterday, as England and France duked out a pointless Bronze Trophy game 6-4, but the headlines certainly have Arsenal interest for sure. For starters, most of the Arsenal boys got on to the pitch, with Rice, Saka, and Eze all starting. And lo and behold, [...]
If you're an Arsenal fan who engages on social media, then you'll be well aware of the good work that HandOfArsenal does in keeping us all informed of the latest developments at The Arsenal. They either currently work at the club, or they are somebody who knows a few people at the club, and the [...]
Those Arsenal England fans still reeling from the exit in the World Cup will hopefully take some Tzolis in the news that we have a shiny new signing about to be announced (see what I did there? I'm here all week...). Yep, it appears we have a Greek lad on the way, and it feels like [...]
So, England are out, after a Tuche disasterclass in the second half of last night's defeat to Argentina. An Argentina side who, let's be honest, are one of the most unlikeable you can imagine. I think I speak for us all when I say: Help us Mikel Merino, you are our only hope. I had [...]
I saw a video yesterday of Rice and Odegaard having a long conversation after the England v Norway game on Saturday evening. Seeing those two locked in a chat was interesting, and had me thinking what they might be talking about. Maybe Martin was asking Declan how sick he was? Maybe they were talking about [...]
Mikel Merino man. He's a bloody international cheat code. I remember him scoring a headed goal at Euro 2024 against the Germans in the July of that summer. He would go on to sign for us about six weeks later, but by then we sort of half-knew that he was of interest to the club. [...]
