Arsenal fans in ‘Justification Mode’ over Madueke – and that’s ok

Had a fair bit of work stuff and other bits going on yesterday, so didn't find the time to compose some thoughts in the wake of the rapidly evolving Madueke story, so shall we have a chat today about it? Firstly, I think it's difficult for me to row back from my original thoughts and [...]

Norgaard will complete the upgrades – but what are we able to do on top of that?

I don't really understand why battle lines need to be drawn amongst the Arsenal fanbase online, I have to say, with regards to this Sesko/Gyokeres saga. I've seen people getting really quite pissy over the fact that Sesko will most probably not be 'the guy' and that he'll probably be plying his trade elsewhere either [...]

Zubi’s in, Gyok is next?

Well now, it's all kicking off in the Arsenal universe, eh? Yesterday we got the official confirmation of Martin Zubimendi's arrival from Real Sociedad, with the first pictures of him in next season's kit, then later in the day there was talk of the striker situation finally nearing a conclusion. Thankfully. Let's start with the [...]

Madueke at Arsenal is as underwhelming as you can get

Yesterday was a day at home doing lots of jobs and chores, so unusually for me, I got plenty of time to be scrolling through my social media feeds for the latest Arsenal-related transfer news. I picked a bad day to do it. That's because all the talk yesterday was on Arsenal reaching personal terms [...]

Less Arsenal dallying than you think?

I usually write my ramblings first thing in the morning so I can be done by the time my working day starts at 9am. So releasing the fixtures at 9am today is a real inconvenience for somebody like me, I gotta be honest with ya. Still, at least it gives me the opportunity to be [...]

Williams to Barca, but Martinelli posts up just as well…

It's funny, you know, because whilst lots of people have been hot on Nico Williams, that has never really permeated the football side of my brain. So when Ornstein drops a confirmation that Williams wants Barcelona and that Barca are sorting out the details on a deal, I say "absolutely fine by me". I think [...]

Arsenal need to just pick one of the delicious cakes

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 [...]

The Williams situation is something Arsenal should just walk away from

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 [...]

The Great Arsenal Striker Hunt of 2025 takes new (predictable) twist

By |2025-06-12T08:30:25+01:00June 12th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Attack, gooners, Gunners, Transfers|0 Comments

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 [...]

Merino’s versatility, Kepa’s ‘cheapness’

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 [...]
