Howdy peeps and welcome to what I like to call the "low risk match day". It's a game this evening at home to Leeds United in which Arsenal we hope will of course win, but with it being in the League Cup, the stakes don't feel as high, so as a result if we end [...]
Last night felt like a bit of a throwback night for me personally. Not just because I was once again reunited with the collective of pre game drinking buddies I have been going to football with for the last few years, but because the game wasn't on TV and it was a time that was [...]
I really want to delve in to some of Mikel Arteta's comments from the interview on the website that I saw yesterday, because he talked in a little more detail than we're used to, about the pressing of the team and ensuring that the lines between the players is a little narrower and more [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Tuesday. Well, what do we have right now then, in terms of Arsenal news, eh? It always goes a little quiet after a win like this and the introspection and teeth gnashing stops a little, or at least slows down, so it's nice having a little look around the internet [...]
Football is hella fun when you win football matches. And score goals. Lots of goals. And last night we did just that. A game in which all six goals came from The Arsenal and in which some vital confidence will have been restored for some of those players. I get it though. I get the [...]
In isolation this game is a bit of a 'meh' one that you can just put in a box and move on with your life. Man City win this competition every year, they are miles better than us, they have players who will punish teams very easily. But the problem we have at the moment [...]
Tonight Arsenal play Man City in the League Cup and surely I’m not alone in thinking: Meh. I mean sure, I want Arsenal to win and sure, it would be great for morale, but with a few players out through injury and a hectic Christmas period that will see us play Chelski on Boxing Day, [...]
Morning all. Perhaps a slightly provocative headline for today's blog, but waking up this morning and just before I went to bed last night, that's what went through my mind when I tried to give the overall game some kind of one sentence analysis. Arsenal progressed through to the next round of the Carabao Cup [...]
Another win, another game in which we can take confidence from the team performance, another match in which Arteta is making his mark on this Arsenal team and we can all be happy about the fact that last night Arsenal progressed to the next round of the Carabao Cup. Even if the likelihood is another [...]
Morning all and welcome to another matchday, at the beginning of what is a very tough month's worth of fixtures, starting with Leicester City away in the Carabao Cup this evening. It's a game in which I don't think there's been a full press conference due to the timings, but Mikel did spend a little [...]
