We're halfway through the week, halfway to our next cup final and as awesome as it's been drinking in all of the salty Scum tears, the focus absolutely has to switch to the challenge of Bournemouth, who will not be an easy opponent on Saturday lunchtime. One person I will be hoping that is in [...]

Acknowledging the mental strength of this Arsenal team

Morning folks, we all good? Have you been basking in the delights of a North London Derby victory still? I certainly have. Yesterday wasn't exactly my most productive work day, I have to admit, as I intermittently found myself getting on to social media to watch the occasional short video of Spurs fans filming their [...]

Arteta giving calm vibes ahead of NLD is good news

The countdown commences and yesterday it was the opportunity for both managers to take to their respective press rooms to respond to questions from the press. As usual Arteta didn't really give up much on the team news and approach, but you wouldn't really ecpect him to because: He hasn't done that all season anyway. [...]

Arsenal showing their mentality at crucial stage in the season

Well I must admit I did not expect Everton to do us any favours yesterday, so didn't bother watching the game between them and Liverpool at Goodison. It helped I was out for dinner with friends, I'll admit, but when I asked the Management to check her phone for the score (superstitious fan in me [...]

Arsenal blow away a sorry Chelsea to stir excitement for final showdowns

Well, that was a bloody load of fun, wasn’t it? Pre game I was nervous. I’ll hold my hands up to that. I didn’t know what kind of Chelsea we’d be up against. Pochettino said beforehand Palmer would be missing, that Gusto wouldn’t be there and that Chilwell wasn’t fit. I’ve heard that story before. [...]

The first half sets the narrative for Arsenal v Chelsea tonight

It's another match day today and another opportunity for me to get too worried and stressed ahead of yet another 'cup final' for The Arsenal, as we take on Chelsea at the Emirates in what I believe, is going to be a very tough game. These always are. Last season's felt relatively comfortable, but that's [...]

How much changes can Arteta realistically make to the team for tonight?

Mikel Arteta had his press conference in the afternoon yesterday and the first good news is that Timber aside, everyone is fine to play this evening. I had a look at Wolves yesterday and from what Gary O'Neill said in his press conference, there is no Neto, as he has only just come back from [...]

Arsenal out with a bit of a whimper against experienced Bayern

And so the Champions League run for The Arsenal comes to an end. Not with a bang, but sadly with a bit of a whimper, as Bayern saw out a tense affair in Munich by beating us 1-0 with that second half headed goal by Kimmich. It was a momentary lapse of concentration from our [...]

Season-defining game for Arsenal against Bayern tonight?

It's the big one today and potentially a season-defining one, although I really wish that it wasn't, because I do worry what might happen if we go out tonight. That's a very real possibility, because: We do not have an amazing pedigree in Europe. We have a pretty pants record against Bayern. We've just come [...]
