Morning folks - here we are at another match day and this time we kick off our League Cup campaign - a home tie against Bolton Wanderers and, I think the key question all of us want answered for this evening's game is: How many first team players are going to be rested tonight? Because [...]
Morning folks, how we all doing this Tuesday? A lot better than 115 Charges FC, it appears, as they now have the utterly scandalous situation of playing Watford this evening at home, just 48 hours after playing us (which they were at home) on Sunday, as well as having played Inter (which was at home) [...]
If you'd have offered me a Desmond 2-2 in the morning yesterday when I was writing my pre match thoughts, I'd have bitten your hands off. If you'd have told me that Arsenal would get back in the game after the first 10 - 15 minutes of yesterday's game at the soulless Etihad I'd have [...]
It's the big one today. Man City away and do you know what? I'm actually not that nervous. I know that sounds weird, maybe it'll change throughout the course of today, but I kind of feel fine about whatever happens today. I suspect it's because I'm managing my own expectations; I think we might come-a-cropper [...]
Happy Saturday peeps. How we all doing? I drank a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon to myself last night, whilst making and then consuming a chilli con carne, listening and watching the two respective managers talk about the game on Sunday. Firstly, Sky Sports were all over Pep, featuring him again and again and some of [...]
That was a tough ol' watch yesterday, eh? Arsenal went to Bergamo, they played a tricky opponent with a very specific approach that is ingrained in their system; they play high-intensity, man-for-man (something Mikel reflected on afterwards in the post-match presser), looking to nullify us by winning those individual duals and hoping that we didn't [...]
Morning Gooners, hope we're all pumped for the start of our Champions League campaign, eh? Tonight should be an interesting one because we've had one English team nab three points in Italy in the shape of Liverpool at Milan on Tuesday, one Italian team nab a point at the Emptihad against 115 Charges FC last [...]
Tomorrow it's Atalanta in the new phase of the Champions League and for some reason unbeknownst to myself, I decided to watch Villa away to Young Boys and then Liverpool away to Milan. Well, the first half of that one, anyway. I say 'unbeknownst' mainly because watching other teams in the Champions League isn't really [...]
Whilst basking in a North London Derby victory is plenty of fun and I intend on doing it a bit more today, there's no rest for the wicked this week, with Atalanta on Thursday and so probably Mikel and the team leaving for Italy either later today or first thing tomorrow. I wonder if they [...]
I've been listening to a song recently by Becky Hill called "I could get used to this". Three North London Derby away wins in three seasons for The Arsenal. I definitely could get used to this. I said pre game yesterday and in the days leading up to this that I hate this game in [...]
