There's only one place to start this morning, given that Arteta doesn't face the media until this afternoon, which is the disappointing news that Emile Smith Rowe has undergone surgery on that groin problem that has kept him in and out of the team all season and will now not be available until after the [...]
The countdown feels like it truly commenceth today, my good friends. We are on T-minus three days and counting after today until the North London Derby and with the players all starting to make their way back to London Colney to be assessed on their fitness ahead of what is feeling - as always - [...]
It's finally a Premier League match day again for The Arsenal and I've got that usual feeling of butterflies in the stomach that occur in the morning of a game. All week I've been thinking about Brentford, I've listened to podcast previews, I've ruminated on how the match might unfold and in my head I've [...]
Morning folks and happy Thursday to you. Well, it would be a happy Thursday, were it a match day today, but unfortunately the match against PSV was called off, despite every other Europa League game seemingly go ahead, as well as in the Champions League.

Morning folks - hope you are all well. Before the usual match review stuff today, it is worth taking a moment to celebrate the life of Queen Elizabeth II of the UK, who died yesterday aged 96. I am certainly no royalist or major fan of the Royal Family, but she has always been a [...]

I've woken up this morning thinking about that game and thinking "that kind of result doesn't happen that way nine out of ten times". I [...]
It's a particularly bitter pill to swallow this morning, when thinking about the events that unfolded at Old Trafford yesterday. once again we went up there, once again we were the better team, once again we come back with nothing. The Old Trafford league hoodoo continues and when we next get the chance to go [...]
Might be a bit of a short one today as I need to head off to London to do a spot of shopping and meet a few friends for lunch and I'm running a little late, but I wanted to pen some pre-United match thoughts on here before I toddle off. Firstly, having watched some [...]
Five out of five for our boys and whilst the 'Yeah but it's only...' brigade may point to an out of sorts Aston Villa side, there are a few facts and figures that is being ignored by those that don't have an emotional investment in The Arsenal. For example, I read a stat this morning [...]
