That pointless tournament in America kicked off last night and did so with the kind of 'bang' I think most of us were hoping for: A boring 0-0 draw. I didn't watch it, but Sky Sports thrust it into my eye-line on their website this morning with a match review, whose highlights included "Messi hit [...]
Is it me, or does it feel like we're in a bit of a transfer washing machine at the moment? Going round and round and round with little changing... All I keep seeing when I log in to sports sites is: Gyokeres' agent and Arsenal still talking or Sesko bid is imminent or Arsenal still [...]
Now it feels like a summer transfer window, eh?!? Arsenal fans getting pulled from pillar-to-post over certain players and situations? And of course it's related to the The Great Striker Hunt of 2025. Which is an evolution of The Great Striker Hunt of 2024. It's a bit like Home Alone 2; they've essentially taken the [...]
What's good about the world we live in these days when it comes to football rumours, is that even the rumours of rumours get reported on. Like last night, where a chap on 'The other platform' called 'HandOfArsenal' took to the platform to tell us all that there would be an article coming out in Marca [...]
I actually switched on the Nations League final yesterday for 15 minutes, just so I could have a quick look at Zubimendi, although I didn't get a glimpse of his goal. I did unfortunately see Ronaldo get the equaliser to make it 2-2 and then prance around for a few minutes afterwards as if he [...]
Normally when I whack Sky Sports News on in the kitchen at this time of the year, there's a fair bit of rotation on what the presenters are talking about, in terms of the different teams. But yesterday when I flicked it on after a long day of work, Sky were going fairly heavy on [...]
First thigns first, how about that Mikel Merino bagging himself another goal in what sounds like an absolutely mental international game last night, eh? I saw the goal as it did the rounds on social media last night and it was a well worked piece and a very fine finish from our Spaniard. For somebody [...]
Wednesday mornings, eh? Not quite the weekend, far enough away from last weekend to keep any lingering happy thoughts away, instead if you're a desk jockey like me you face a full day of work knowing that the weekend still lies a little too far beyond touching distance. I'm sure that's why they invented midweek [...]
This time of the year is always a bit funny, I find, because people lose their minds over stuff that hasn't even happened yet. But what is worse is when people lose their minds over what others are doing. I get it to a point though. Until something concrete happens with your own team, you [...]
It's a new week, the football is now all officially over for last season after the Champions League on Saturday night (I don't consider the Club World Cup as football - it's a FIFA money-spinning exercise) and the transfer window officially opened yesterday. It's open only for the clubs who are part of the national [...]
