Nearly halfway in to the transfer window – is anyone else starting to be concerned?

I didn't watch the game against Hibs on Tuesday and so didn't actually manage to catch some individual performances. So the sight yesterday of a slightly rounder Willian on the pitch, with various pictures of him looking visibly chubbier as he faced off against the Scottish team, would be utterly hilarious, if it wasn't so [...]

The Saliba saga continues…and it’s everyone’s fault

Yesterday morning I think it was, when I read that Saliba had withdrawn from the French Olympic team, which I thought meant he could come back to Arsenal and get a good pre season and then who knows, probably get the chance to impress and maybe even play some football for us so Arteta could [...]

The Nelson and Xhaka situations are both weird and irritating

Morning folks. Hope you're well. Doing a little bit of R&R at The Management's Northumbrian-based family over the next week, so some of my usual ramblings might be a little later in release than usual as I sleep in. But I'll let you know if I see Joe Willock rock up in a hotel restaurant [...]

KT contract is great; if only we had one on the right…

The Euro’s got back underway last night and I watched Wales get smashed up by an impressive Danish team and thought “Wales aren’t that good really, are they?” I don’t know whether it’s because they are one of the home nations, or because they’ve got the likes of Bale and Ramsey in their side, but [...]

Maddison, Lamptey, White and Bellerin – are things going to start moving soon for Arsenal?

Another fun few games in the Euro's yesterday, which was always good to watch as a neutral. I watched the second half of the Poland vs Sweden game and it had intensity, intrigue, plus a few goals to swing the momentum one way then the other. Then we had the France v Portugal game and [...]

Denmark make it fun, Lacazette’s exit is intriguing, plus a sensible left back option

I think I had more fun watching Denmark smash Russia than any game I've watched at the Euro's so far. I thought the Germany v Portugal game would probably end up being one of the best, but those Danes know how to throw a party and yesterday's game had pretty much everything. Goals, delicately poised [...]

Impressive Italians and the boring ‘middle part’ of transfer saga’s – Arsenal style…

Happy Monday folks, how you all doing? It was Father's Day in the UK and that meant three trips to various locations for me n The Management, which meant very little time for the watching of football, so I have little to say on the Euro's on this drab London morning. I did watch the [...]
