After 30 minutes of the game yesterday I glanced over to the touchline. Sean Dyche was there in his technical box, stood still, arms folded, looking on. I couldn't see his face from where I sit, but I could make a pretty educated guess as to what the expression was: pleased. He'd sent his charges [...]
Happy match day folks. A midweek match day in the premier League. And what an opportunity we have that sits before us. An opportunity to go five points clear at the top. An opportunity for revenge against a side that beat us just a few short weeks ago. An opportunity for us to start saying [...]
Morning folks, how we all doing? Looking forward to tomorrow night's slugfest against Everton? Because let's face it, it will be a slugfest. It will be a gruelling, grinding, low-blocking, frustration of an evening as Everton try to double up on our wide forwards, they camp on the edge of their own box with bodies, [...]
Happy Monday to you lovely Gooners. How we all doing today? I see that the media love-in for Man United has started. They waxed lyrical throughout the League Cup final and then afterwards too, as United celebrated their first cup in six years. Apparently this is going to spearhead them to inevitable glory now. We [...]
That win against Leicester yesterday felt like one of the most dominant 1-0 victories you are ever likely to witness. If you just look at it from a scoreline perspective you'd probably think that it was a gritty, nervy, hard-fought and difficult win away from home, grinding out the three points and getting the hell [...]
Happy Match day folks! Is it happy though? Do you every REALLY enjoy matchday? As I mentioned on my blog yesterday, I did a stadium tour yesterday, which was pretty awesome because The Management had sorted me out a VIP Legends tour, which meant I was shown around by Lee Dixon and Nigel Mitchell, who [...]
Cards on the table here. I am feeling rather worried about tonight. The opponents we face are formidable and just like whenever we play United at Old Trafford it doesn't seem to matter if we're great - because we lose (last season's game at the Emirates), we match them - because we lose (the FA [...]
Another frustrating performance sees Arsenal drop points and by the time we get to the end of this weekend’s fixtures, it’ll be just three points and a game in hand between Arsenal and Man City. This is a City team who we keep hearing ‘aren’t quite the same’, ‘has something missing’, etc, etc. yet they [...]
Morning Gooners, hope you're all grand and feeling chipper ahead of what I think will be a very tough match at the Emirates against Brentford today, who are in form and unbeaten in nine games. They've had a few draws during that run, but it also dates back to an away victory over Man City [...]
I am a lot more nervous about this game than I thought I would be, you know. I thought that this Everton team have looked ragged all season, they have disgruntled fans turning on the club and its ownership, there was talk about protests going on during the game, plus more. Before the Premier League [...]
