How about last night's action for an eventful evening of European football, eh? Where do we even start??? How about pre-game, when the surprise, shock and outrage of Le Boss' team selection left some spiralling into a pit of their own melancholy, whilst others were left simply scratching their heads. After all, the line up [...]
Back in Blighty, back on my usual commute to work, but thankfully, also back in to the swing of all things Arsenal and there'll be no time to waste before we're off again, with the small matter of French Champions Paris Saint Germain to contend with. I'd imagine that there will be a presser at [...]
Sometimes the arrival at a destination is more important than the journey. Which is what football feels like sometimes and yesterday was one of those times, as we laboured terribly to a victory over an organised Southampton team who remained disciplined in their shape. Yesterday's game was like a really crappy journey to a holiday [...]
Ahh match day, that sweetest of things and whilst I can't make the game itself today because of my current location, I still feel the same levels of excitement when it comes around. Southampton at the Emirates for a 3pm kick off means I'll be watching from an Irish bar in the Algarve, with a [...]
Hello hello fellow gooner. Happy Tuesday to you. I hope you're getting through this international malaise by entertaining yourself with many enjoyable things. Like ham. Ham is a glorious thing, especially when it's thick-cut, so if you're a fan of the hog you should definitely eat and enjoy ham. As you've probably already guessed, there's [...]
Happy Monday to you and yours. I hope it's a good one. The Algarve remains blisteringly hot and I've taken to eating peaches for breakfast. Speaking of peaches, it was an absolute one which saw Shkodran Mustafi be an unused sub for their 3-0 away victory against Norway yesterday, wasn't it? It would just feel [...]
In Portugal at the moment, so yesterday was spent travelling to a place of sunnier climes than my normal London base. Wrote this yesterday and am only now getting the chance to post today, but I still think a lot of what I said is relevant, hence re-posting now. Catch y'all tomorrow with another round [...]
The signings of Mustafi and Perez were finally over the line yesterday and, as the sun began to set in the UK, both were pictured on the official site wearing the famous red and white of The Arsenal. It's feels good, doesn't it? It gives a buzz to the fans, but if you believe what [...]
Welcome to Tuesday, which in my head, is actually a Monday because of the bank holiday. Don't worry, it's definitely Tuesday. I checked. Twice. And it seems as though the end of the transfer window will be greeted with confirmation on the two deals that Arsène pretty much confirmed on Saturday, so I'd expect to [...]
Yo, how goes it, on this fine Monday? Well, it's fine in England because we have a bank holiday and in my part of the world the sun is shining. It's also shining in the world of Arsenal. We're still able to bask in the warming glow of three points and after the manager confirmed [...]
