The sloth edges ever closer to his tree, the perfect spot for his resting place... That's what it feels like with this Calafiori deal, eh? Last night another couple of journalists dropping the "here we go!" soundbites, in an eagerness to be the 'first past the post' in declaring a transfer confirmed. At this stage [...]
Morning folks, we all good? Well, as good as we can be given there's no football on at the moment and The Arsenal are still a solid six week's away until the proper stuff starts to kick in. I thought about going along to one of the friendlies we've got penned in for the beginning [...]
In the most obvious outcome possible from a gathering of the Premier League clubs to vote on certain motions, yesterday we found out that Arsenal and 18 other clubs voted to keep VAR yesterday, as Wolves lost their motion to have it scrapped, with no real surprises that everyone else wanted to keep it. I [...]
Bleugh. Drank too much last night and here I sit on a Sunday morning with a mixture of sore head through too much red wine, as well as butterflies in my stomach through what will transpire later on this afternoon, for which I need not remind you. It all comes down to this. As Arsenal [...]
Here we go folks. The Big Weekend is amongst us and tomorrow we face off against a historical big foe in Man United, knowing that only victory gives us a slim chance of winning the Premier League. And let's be honest here, it is a 'slim' chance. I'm not trying to be deliberately negative or [...]

Well I don't think any of us really expected City to drop any points yesterday, did they? This isn't the same Brighton as last season but as a well as that, Brighton are very much in 'on the beach' mode on 44 points and with little chance of getting in to the European spots, so [...]
Morning Gooners - happy Friday and all that jazz. Hopefully you're looking forward to the weekend and the Arsenal on Sunday? I do hate Sunday games in general. Saturday's have always been the best time to play football and Sunday just feels like a long wait, feels like you have to hang around a bit, [...]
It’s the big one today and, as I suspected but didn’t say, the butterflies and nerves for this game against City later on are starting to kick in. Arsenal travel to Manchester trying to do something we haven’t managed to do in nine previous attempts in all competitions. You have to go back eight years [...]
It just had to be bloody Bayern Munich, didn't it, eh? On Thursday I wrote about my preference about who I'd like to see us play in the quarter-final and on that list Bayern finished fifth out of eight, so it almost felt inevitable that we were going to get one of the toughest opponents [...]
