Is Fabio Vieira Reyes 2.0?

Morning folks (just). Provocative title from me today, perhaps, but let me explain my workings. I do want to get to some of the things Mikel Arteta said yesterday in his press conference ahead of the Liverpool game, but before that I thought I'd share something that I was pondering this morning as I was [...]

World Cup problems will bleed in to the Christmas return of the Premier League

Hello, hello, hello, how are you doing today? Are you feeling chipper now that we're knocking down the doors of the North London Derby game on Saturday? I'm not. Hate this fixture more than anything else. Home or away, I hate it. The worry, the nerves, the stress, it all just builds until the moment [...]

Arteta’s carrot or stick with the Arsenal players

Morning folks and welcome to Thursday. It's been a weird ol' week for me as I had Tuesday off after a bank holiday Monday wedding and I'm off tomorrow celebrating my mum's birthday by taking her and the ol' man to Cologne for the weekend. So it barely feels like the week has started and [...]

Ozil and Arsenal ‘could have been’ transfers

Morning folks. Hope you're having a good one? It's Tuesday morning of the Interlull week and let's be honest, this is when it gets the most tiresome, because we're still so far away from the proper football starting back up. There is also little news of particular interest from an Arsenal perspective and so we [...]

How much do Arsenal NEED the League Cup to start an era?

You know when you have those dreams that feel so real, that you wake up in the morning, then you feel an emotion based on that dream that is really strong? It could be positive or negative. Well, I had an Arsenal one of those last night, about the League Cup game against Liverpool. Unfortunately [...]

More time needed for both Wenger and Arsenal

Wednesday morning, the internal break hasn't even kicked off and I'm already bored of it. It's funny because when we lose I view the internationals as either a painfully slow creepy death in terms of football (i.e. you can't get 'back on the wagon' with a result), or a momentum killer (i.e. what happens if [...]

There is no silver bullet for Arsenal Football Club

Morning folks and welcome to Tuesday. We are less than a week away from it all being over and I am starting to get excited. The thought of three months away from having to shout at my TV because young men in their 20s and 30s can't make me happy on a football pitch makes [...]

“Judge him in May” – but can we with Arteta?

I saw a Tweet from a fellow Gooner last night that made me chuckle. It said that now was a perfect time for Arteta to announce that Willian is starting the next two curcial games, given that Harry and Meghan seemed to be dominating all online noise with their 'revelations' last night to Oprah. I'm [...]

Arsene’s bullish, but i’ll wait until December before Arsenal title talk

Morning folks and welcome to another drab and grey day. It must be Mother Nature telling the footballing world that we've all had enough of it. The international breaks I mean. It still rumbles on but thankfully not for much longer and whilst some people still got suckered in by the prospect of seeing Thomas [...]

Xhaka’s paternity leave and Wenger’s extended leave from the Emirates

Morning folks and welcome to another interminable week of international nonsense before we get to next weekend and the return of the Premier League. What I always find fascinating about these breaks is not so much the football itself, but rather all the speculation that seems to be whipped up as a result of players [...]
