Mikel Arteta had his press conference yesterday and, as expected, give nothing away in terms of availability of key players like Saliba or Trossard. He did say that Big Gabi is a ‘few weeks’ away and given it’s the beginning of December, I think most of us would take it if he’s coming back for [...]

Assessing Brentford: More physicality and a low block to come for Arsenal?

Howdy folks, hope we're all good? I thought that the catharsis of the Same Old Arsenal pod last night with James and Amanda would help me to understand my feelings over that Chelsea result, but I'm still no nearer to breaking it down. I think that's because City ultimately beat Leeds and so it feels [...]

Arsenal need to leverage pace in behind to beat Chelsea

With City inevitably picking up their three points against Leeds at home yesterday, Arsenal are reminded just how slender these advantages can be with what lies ahead of us today: An in-form Chelsea team with an opportunity to throw their hats into the ring as title contenders by beating us on their own patch. So [...]

Chelsea v Arsenal build up: Pundits sitting on the fence here

It's Friday, it's a couple of days before we go to Chelsea and it's a trip into the Chelsea fans forums for me to see how they are feeling. It's certainly a mixed bag, with as much of them saying they can't see themselves losing, as well as the reverse. I think this season has [...]

Arsenal can make Europe take notice tonight against Bayern

This is a very weird feeling today - about tonight's game I mean. That's because never have I felt more 'ahh it'll be fine' about a game against Bayern Munich than I feel this evening. That's probably why I could never be an elite athlete, to be fair, because aside from the clear and obvious [...]

Arsenal must stop Xhaka to get three points today

Match day Saturday for The Arsenal and I come to you from just north of Newcastle, in the North East, albeit not going to the game today. Which is frustrating. But not as frustrating as it might be today if we can't capitalise on the fact that we're playing before both City and Liverpool, who [...]

How much of an impact can Gabriel Jesus have?

By |2025-11-07T08:04:14+00:00November 7th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Attack, injuries, Match Preview, Mikel Arteta, premier league|0 Comments

We didn't get the Mikel Arteta press conference that I swore I saw somebody say was going to happen yesterday, but what we did get was sight of Gabriel Jesus in full first team training, which is lovely to see. I doubt it will mean anything for this weekend, because he'll need probably a few [...]

When can we get Big Vik back?

Happy Thursday all - hope you're all good? I think we're getting a Mikel Arteta press conference this morning ahead of the Sunderland game and I don't know about you, but the main question I'd like answered is: How long is Viktor Gyokeres going to be out injured for? The talk is that it's after [...]

Arsenal’s makeshift attacking options must do the business in Prague

Morning campers, hope you're all well on this here Champions League match day, in which a visit to Prague is on the cards for the team for one of the earlier kick offs today. Firstly, we have to ponder who on earth is now going to be playing up front, after Big Vik succumbed to [...]

A potential tough watch as Burnley to sit in deep

Match day ten this season brings about yet another familiar challenge to it that we have faced for some years now: An away day low block. It used to be a tenet of Premier League football that when teams are at home, they are a little more expansive; their fans urge them to drive forward, [...]
