Expectations and anticipation: PSG at home

It's the big one tonight. The season-definer (until, maybe, next week in Paris), the one in which glory could be found like Madrid at home, or gut punch can be received, like the home defeat to Man United within the first few minutes in 2009. Arteta knows he will need the home support to replicate [...]

Arsenal need to ‘do the job’ against Palace tonight

Tonight's game against Palace feels like a bit of an inconvenience for both teams, if we're all honest with ourselves, but Arsenal still have a job to do this evening. With Man City winning late against Villa last night, City are within five points of us now, having played a game more. The whole world [...]

Will Palace tomorrow have ‘summer friendly’ vibes to it?

Spent the Easter weekend with family, which meant less time available for blogging first thing in the morning, but had I jumped on here for some post match words yesterday, I'd have talked about a professional performance against an opponent who looked like the jig was up. For Arsenal the approach was good; the players [...]

Rotation the aim for Brentford today – but mindset has to remain strong

Morning campers, how we all doing? Weird one, this one today, innit? I mean, we have ourselves a match day, we have ourselves an Arsenal home game and we have ourselves a pressing need to probably at least win four of our last seven to be assured of the second spot in the Premier League. [...]

Quick look at Brentford – long ball and high press from the Bees?

It looks like it's shaping up to be a glorious few days of weather here in London over the next couple of days, but will the football tomorrow evening match that, given what we saw on Tuesday and the fact we have our second leg of the Quarter Final of the Champions League against Real [...]

An Arsenal season-definer in North London tonight?

We all know how big this one is for us tonight and if you didn't, then Mikel's selection decisions from last week's draw with Everton showed just how big, with: Partey rested Timber rested Odegaard rested Saka rested Martinelli rested Those are some of your big-impact players right there and for once in his career [...]

Any eyes on Tuesday need to be refocused on Goodison for Arsenal today

It's gotta be a quick one from me today because as I tap away from my keyboard the game is about three hours away, so I'll try to make it snappy (but inevitably won't). Firstly, some props to David Moyes, who joked that he's owed £50million from Arsenal fans because they sold Declan at £100million [...]

Saka’s return brings the boost we need for Fulham

Arteta's words yesterday that Bukayo Saka is "ready to go" were like a perfectly harmonious symphony orchestra delivering their first sweet notes to your years of a summer concert. We've missed the Starboy, we've cried out for his ability to change games, we've longed to see him cut inside and deliver end product for us for [...]

Eyes on the ball (and prize) for Arsenal against PSV tonight

Liverpool have been rolling the dice and getting so many sixes this season, that when I went to bed at 10pm with it into extra time, I just expected to find out this morning that they'd won 5-0 on penalties. But they're out, the media fawning over them winning the quadruple that we were witnessing [...]

Low key United-Arsenal game that we still need to probably win

It's a big one today As Arsenal face off against Manchester United in an epic top-of-the ta... ..Oh wait, it's not. I love how Sky Sports have tried their best to dress this game up as having some kind of significance, when in reality: A win for Arsenal does nothing other than keep a bit [...]
