With the Interlull tedium now fully enveloping us all, as I was on my morning run, I was thinking about "what are the best possible outcomes for The Arsenal for this upcoming international break/weekend?" I have concluded that the following would be rather nice: Calafiori's legs don't implode Last season it felt like every time Riccardo [...]
Is it safe to come out? Did every Arsenal player make it out in one piece? It sounds like it to me. Even in the early hours of the morning with the Brazil game, mercifully Big Gabi and Martinelli were both unused subs, as the Selecao went on to lose 1-0 away to Bolivia. That sounds [...]
Given that we play them at home at the weekend, I really hope that Forest's decision to sack Nuno Espirito Santo in the early hours of this morning have a destabilising effect on them for when they rock up at the Emirates on Saturday lunchtime. Let's hope that it doesn't galvanise them and we can [...]
Take a bow Mikel Merino son! He bagged himself a hat trick for Spain last night and the second one in particular looked like a really good strike. Naturally that kind of output and the fact he also scored in their last game against Bulgaria has you thinking about his life in an Arsenal shirt [...]
I watched the WSL opener as I was doing some work in the kitchen yesterday and I have to say, that Olivia Smith lass looks good, doesn't she? That's one heck of a shot she's got on her and if that's the sign of things to come, then Arsenal Women have themselves one heck of [...]
So here we are folks - we're now immersed deep into the mire that is the September international break, with players now away with their national teams and Arsenal's doing all kind of rain dances, prayers and voodoo witchcraft tricks in the hope that we get them all back in one piece. We've already suffered [...]
I'll get into the Arsenal men's teams' second win of pre season after a somewhat feisty encounter in Singapore against Newcastle yesterday lunchtime UK time, but before all of that, let's have a word or two to say about the fabulous England Lionesses, who retained the Euro trophy on penalties by defeating Spain in the [...]
I actually switched on the Nations League final yesterday for 15 minutes, just so I could have a quick look at Zubimendi, although I didn't get a glimpse of his goal. I did unfortunately see Ronaldo get the equaliser to make it 2-2 and then prance around for a few minutes afterwards as if he [...]
I watched about 10 minutes of the England game last night, just before Declan Rice made the assist for some unknown footballer who I willst not name, mainly to get five to ten minutes of seeing Myles Lewis-Skelly at this level. From a confidence perspective clearly he doesn't lack that and you could absolutely tell [...]
Back from a week off in the Maldives and having fortunately picked a week in which it's been internationals going on, from an Arsenal perspective it's been good because there's not really massive amounts to talk about. Well, nothing that you have probably not already read just about everything on. Then I check in on [...]
