I had a stinking hangover yesterday after a company all-day conference on Thursday and so wasn't quite in the right frame of mind to do anything, let alone blog, but I'm back and feeling refershed this morning and what a good job too, because there is so much to talk about ahead of the North [...]
Morning folks, hope we're all good? I've woken up this morning feeling mega fatigued. It's probably wine-induced, coupled with doing very little this weekend other than sitting in the paddling pool, so my body feels as though it has been set a precedent where anything else other than horizontal living in the sun is acceptable, [...]
Morning all, hope we're all ok on this Thursday in August? It was good getting the business done earlier, eh? I remember too many times getting to the last week of the window thinking "nope, we're still too short, they HACE to do something soon". Of course quite often it would be leaving it until [...]
So the lads are in the US prepping for the MLS all stars game and as a result of that Arteta has been speaking ahead of the tour to the press. It's been covered fairly extensively and you can read word-for-word what he's said here, so I thought I'd pluck out a few of the [...]
Seen a bit of chatter online on social media and then in a couple of WhatsApp groups I am in about Nicolas Pepe. Whilst a chunk of the Arsenal squad went out to Germany to prep for the first pre season game of the summer against FC Nurnberg tomorrow, there were a few players that [...]
Don't mix your alcohol, kids. It will end badly for you. Spoken from a man with plenty of experience and exposure to this scenario. And I'm supposed to be going to a Bruce Springsteen concert later in Hyde Park. Bleugh. Still, on the up side, Arsenal confirmed the contract extension of Big Bill Saliba and [...]
We're just getting Ornbomb after Ornbomb at the moment, aren't we? And yesterday's latest explosion was the confirmation of the William Saliba deal, which has been signed, sealed and delivered and I suspect the club are just choosing the right moment to make the announcement, having confirmed Nelson signed a new deal yesterday too. Give [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Monday. I was hanging quite a bit yesterday, so couldn't face a computer screen, but I did eventually get around to looking at my phone and saw that David Ornstein had confirmed that Saliba had all but signed up on a four year deal to stay at the club. It's [...]
'Tis the season to be...... ....Worried about every single transfer rumour that gets banded about, apparently, and I am by no means an exception it seems. For yesterday in the morning - after I'd written my daily musings on here first thing, a story emerged about how Arsenal could be resigned to losing Saliba this [...]
Got a company call in 20 minutes so this one might be a short one today, so let's see how much I can get through before I have to quickly clock off for the day. The best place to start is of course Aaron Ramsdale's new deal being confirmed yesterday, as the club released this [...]
