Well, that’s that then, title done and the little hope we had of maybe ending our 19 year wait for a title has evaporated right in front of my very eyes at the Emirates on an utterly atrocious night - from a defensive point of view - for The Arsenal. Southampton had scored 24 goals [...]
It’s match day tonight and, I’ll be completely honest with you not only am I worried that we might not deliver the kind of assured performance of a team that sits top of the league, but I’m also slightly concerned about our season longer term. That’s because Arteta had his press conference yesterday and confirmed [...]
I don't particularly want to dwell on Man City too much today, but given it is they who are currently in the way of a first league title for us since god knows when, perhaps it is inevitable that I - like many Arsenal fans I converse with online - are paying particular attention to [...]
Morning folks. Yesterday I put a tweet out about how I'd almost forgotten how rubbish Monday's are after a disappointing performance from Arsenal. We've been that good all season that out of the 28 or 29 match weeks (I know we are on game 31 but there have been midweek Premier League matches so sometimes [...]
Ahh man am I hungover. Started off with a stein at lunchtime and it slowly descended from there. So I’m feeling a bit fragile this morning. Don’t make my day worse Arsenal, please, I’m begging you. City made light work of Leicester City as we thought and so it means that if we want to [...]
Happy Friday you lovely lot. Man, that week absolutely flew by for me personally, as it feels only yesterday I was chewing my fingernails down to bone in anticipation and dread of what lay ahead of us come the Sunday with that trip to Anfield. Would our season's attempt at the title falter and leave [...]
Morning all. Probably a shorter one today, on account of the fact I'm doing this blog on the tube in and the wifi signal tethering to my laptop has been a little bitch this morning. So I'll see how much I can get through before I hit Wembley Park station and then sign off for [...]
I'm going to be honest with you, seeing the Financially Doped Sky Blues (FDSB) of Manchester blitz their way through Bayern Munich last night has me somewhat concerned that they are hitting a level of form that everyone expecting from the start of this season. It seems it doesn't matter whether they are playing the [...]
There's still lots of introspection and online discourse as to whether or not Arsenal have 'ceded the advantage' or similar such wording, in relation to the title race. The likes of Gary Neville are saying things like "I still fancy City to win it" and to be honest with you, if you take your red [...]
Todays ramblings from me will be a slightly different take on the 2-2 draw at Liverpool yesterday. That’s because I’m viewing it through the prism of not having watched the game, as I was with The Management’s family having an Easter dinner and so I physically couldn’t watch the game. But I did check in [...]
