Those of a certain religious persuasion would probably use the following phrase to discuss the now (thankfully) ended transfer MegaLull, when it comes to Arsenal players' performances: The Good Lord Giveth, and he taketh away. The 'Taketh away' bit is, of course, the injuries to Havertz, then Tzolis, then Konsa too, who I haven't mentioned this [...]
We had ourselves some Arsenal goalscorers again last night and, just as I'd hoped for, Big Vik was once again in amongst it. It was another proper tap-in poachers goal, but at this point, I don't think we want to look any kind of gift horse in the mouth, because he's going to be our [...]
Well it sounds like Kai Havertz is going to be out for three to four weeks with his hamstring injury, if some of the noises from the socials are to be believed. If that has been confirmed by the club, if it is three weeks, say, then we're looking at him being back by 24th [...]
This Man City stuff is going to dominate the headlines for a while yet, isn't it? Especially given that the City higher-ups are showing no contrition, no remorse, and instead are doubling down on their situation. Their latest 'lever' to pull is to get Etihad Airways involved, who are briefing to the press that they [...]
England bagged a win away at the Czech Republic yesterday, with Bukayo Saka and Myles Lewis-Skelly in the starting lineup, and having obviously not bothered to watch the game, I was hoping to see that Bukayo had a decent performance. I've spoken already about how he's been doing ok this season, bagged some goals, but [...]
So, who survived the latest round of international torture, eh? I was making food for dinner last night, and I heard Sky Sports say that after Alexander Isak was sent home because of a minor injury, Cody Gakpo has now also been sent home for Liverpool, which means their front line is starting to look [...]
Let's start with an editorial correction from yesterday, shall we? I obviously didn't watch the game; I looked on FOTMOB at who played, for some reason missed that MLS got 70 minutes, and apparently did okay, according to some people in the comments. Hey ho - like I said, I clearly didn't watch it, so [...]
We're not even a full week into this extended and, frankly, f*cking annoying international foreverness, and we've already got a reason to say piss off to it. Honestly, this is why we seem to get more annoyed by international breaks than anyone else, because it feels like every time we have one, there's an Arsenal [...]
I don't know about you, but given what happened last weekend, I was hoping that the desire to talk about something else - even England - would have kicked in a little more by now. I'm going to try to give it a go, but whether I'll be able to hit my normal 1,000 words [...]
As World Cup finals go, that might have just about been the worst one I've ever watched. For all the wrong reasons, too, because it was never really a true competition. What I watched was not the two best teams in the tournament duke it out for the top prize, but one side looking to [...]
