Happy Friday folks, hope you guys are all good? It'll be press conference day today ahead of the Palace game and with less than two week's until the transfer window closes I think it's inevitable that Arteta is once again asked the question on whether there are any incomings happening this January and, inevitably, he [...]

Morning folks and a happy Monday to you and yours. Well...as happy as a Monday as you're going to get when there's been no Arsenal on and you've had to sit through a Man United versus Tottenham game in which both sides looked a little bit pants. The night before I'd watched a ding-dong of [...]

Happy Friday folks - hope you're all well? If you're UK based then you must be feeling the cold snap we got going on here - blimey it's brass monkey's out there. But let's be thankful for the warming sensation of a bit of Arsenal #Content, as yesterday the club released footage of Jurrien Timber [...]

Yesterday I saw the news emanating from a few sources that Thomas Partey is close to a return to the side and that the club are potentially earmarking the Nottingham Forest game as a match in which he could play a part. My first reaction was a Futurama Professor Farnsworth-style "Good news everyone!" reaction. We have [...]

With Mikel Arteta not doing his press conference until tomorrow lunchtime, it's up to us to start doing ALL THE SPECULATIONS on the game we have on Sunday, which was of course ably delivered on the Same Old Arsenal Podcast with the two James' last night. James J went for a 1-0 scraper and I [...]

The importance of this weekend’s FA Cup game is growing for The Arsenal

With Arsenal having essentially a week to, as Declan Rice put it, 'reset' ahead of their next game, I am wondering what the mood will be like after back-to-back defeats. Will the players feel as down as we all were after those results? How well can they compartmentalise them and give a reaction? How exactly [...]

Morning folks and welcome to Thursday. I have my work Christmas party this evening, so whether I'm in any fit state tomorrow morning to drop a few words on this virtual page I don't know, but for now I'm good so will crack on for now, although there hasn't been a presser, there's little more [...]

Declan Rice is Arsenal’s most important player

Howdy folks from the Southern hemisphere. Hope you guys are all doing well? I've been thinking about this topic for a while so thought given that we're in the middle of the tedium that is the international break, I'd pen some thoughts about our £100million man Declan Rice, who by now we all absolute adore [...]

Morning folks and welcome to Tuesday, which will probably be the last of the regularly released rambling utterances from yours truly on here, because in about 13 hours from writing this I'm off to New Zealand for a few weeks. I'll try to get a few blogs and thoughts penned in during that time, but [...]
