If last season taught us anything, it's that Sunderland are a side not to be taken lightly. That 2-2 up at the Stadium of light come over my birthday weekend in November, I was up in the North East, funnily enough, but on the black and white side, and Arsenal were gut-punched late on to [...]
Happy Friday, boys and girls. I hope wherever you are, you enjoy the end of the working week, or if you still have to work tomorrow anyway, you at least get the 'Friday vibes'. Not least because The Arsenal play tomorrow. It's a trip up to the Stadium of Light to play Sunderland, who last [...]
We're back with Champions League football tonight, and it's a visit to Napoli in my favourite city in Italy for those travelling Arsenal players and fans. Of course the problem with Naples is that it's also a dodgy as hell in parts, and I've seen warnings about sticking to hotel bars if you're English, but [...]
This is a big one today. This is a match that is probably going to be one of the big two or three home games this season. The Scum is a derby, but they are clearly inferior. Liverpool still can't work out what they are yet I don't think, but City and Chelsea feel like [...]
We're around 36 hours (at the time of writing) away from the Transfer Window closing tomorrow evening, but thankfully for me, anyway, I'm less bothered about those goings-on and more bothered about what happens on the pitch tonight at Villa Park. We're at match week two all but completed, and the two familiar faces that [...]
I'm back in Blighty following a week in the sun in Portugal, and yesterday I was making the journey back home whilst all the fun was happening for other teams in the Premier League. It's fair to say that so far, there are a few nice surprises that have popped up, whilst equally there are [...]
Here we go, people! It's matchday! The Champions - that's us, by the way - kick off the Premier League season tonight with a home game against newly promoted Coventry City, and whilst I am looking forward to it, I'm also gutted that I booked a holiday to Portugal, where my plane leaves at 4pm [...]
It's the big one today, folks. The Champions League Final. Arsenal play PSG, the side that vanquished us in the semi-final last season over two legs. It's the 'game of your lifetime'. Last season I actually went into the semi-final in a pretty confident mood. We'd beaten PSG pretty well at home, we'd already managed [...]
This midweek has felt like a weird one. There haven't been a ton of things to say, in all honesty; we've all been basking in the reflective glow of the Premier League title win, whilst also feeling a little weird that we have an arguably bigger prize in just two days' time. But as the [...]
It's match day, people, and the nerves have, once again, properly kicked in. Arsenal have it all within their own power to win a Premier League title. Just two wins. Just two wins. Sounds simple, right? Well, yes, the logic of it is. Arsenal start the first half of this two-part challenge tonight against Burnley, [...]
