Ok, so we’re over 24 hours now since the disappointing 1-1 draw against City and - ridiculous comments from Bernardo Silva about the turnaround time they had compared to us to prep for the game (hello? We played Atalanta away on the Thursday before we travelled up to Manchester in the corresponding fixture last year [...]
In the fullness of time a draw against Man City may not appear to be the worst result in the world. Indeed, when you get an equaliser in the dying ebbs of the game, it feels like more of a boost than it should. But given where City were, given how the game played out [...]
Well we have heard from the managers now, with both doing their usual niceties talking about each other, which we’ve all come to expect given how close they are as friends. Pep did a little flippant comment about how if Mikel wins the league it is not because of him or his team, but because [...]
We have to wait until Sunday before we line up against City at The Emirates, which I think is going to be a really REALLY tough game, but before then today we'll get more from Arteta when he has his press conference. The big question I think most of us are wondering is on the [...]
It's Champions League match day one and we find ourselves up against a familiar adversary from the summer friendlies: Athletic Club in Bilbao. In the summer we saw an Arsenal side who swash buckled their way to a comfortable 3-0 victory at The Emirates with Big Vik also getting on the scoresheet in a game [...]
I had a dream last night that we played Burnley, we were beating them 2-0 and into injury time, when Bukayo Saka went down and we were arguing for a penalty in stoppage time. The ref waved it away, but then was called to the monitor, to see that the second goal we scored hit [...]
Yesterday morning I spoke of the fact that Forest could be a bit of a banana skin on account of the fact that we don't really know how they would play. In the fullness of time and with the benefit of hindsight, we can say that regardless of what they were going to do, this [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Thursday. With the international tedium now well behind us in the rear view mirror, thoughts shift back towards the Premier League and a return of an old adversary to The Emirates in 'Big Ange' Postecoglou. His reign at Forest is now underway and, as you'd expect, he's come out in [...]
Is it safe to come out? Did every Arsenal player make it out in one piece? It sounds like it to me. Even in the early hours of the morning with the Brazil game, mercifully Big Gabi and Martinelli were both unused subs, as the Selecao went on to lose 1-0 away to Bolivia. That sounds [...]
Given that we play them at home at the weekend, I really hope that Forest's decision to sack Nuno Espirito Santo in the early hours of this morning have a destabilising effect on them for when they rock up at the Emirates on Saturday lunchtime. Let's hope that it doesn't galvanise them and we can [...]
