The way in which I try to temper my own intensity and nervousness over a football game is usually to start at the lowest base point and work upwards. What I mean by that is that in my head, if I start at the point in which my expectations are that we will lose and [...]

Fearing the Leicester counter “smash and grab”

By |2022-03-13T09:48:34+00:00March 13th, 2022|Arsenal FC, Attack, Defence, gooners, Gunners, Match Preview, Mikel Arteta, premier league|2 Comments

I'm super nervous about today, lads and lasses, super nervous indeed. I think the reason why is because I fear what Leicester can do to us on the counter attack. They feel to me like a team absolutely geared up to smash and grab us and whilst their defence is nowhere near as resolute as [...]

Watford will be no walkover for Arsenal

A Sunday matchday it is for us today and having seen West ham narrowly defeated yesterday, as well as Wolves going down 2-0 at home to Palace, a win away at Watford for Arsenal will go a long way to driving us towards that coveted Top Four spot. We are level on points with West [...]

Last night I afforded myself a little post match fist bump after it was confirmed that the Scum had been beaten by Burnley, meaning four defeats out of their last five, but this morning I am back on the Wagon of Fear as it is Arsenal's turn to play one of their games in hand against [...]

A very different Arsenal to line up against Brentford this time?

It's match day people! And it is the reverse of the opening game of the season, in which we succumbed to an excitable and motivated Brentford side who took advantage of our mixture of injuries and COVID situation in the Arsenal camp, to overcome us 2-0 in their new stadium. I drove past their stadium [...]

Grind out a win today, Arsenal

It's Burnley, it's at home, they've had plenty of rest and we've had both the physical and mental hit that the game against Liverpool did to us on Thursday last week. But Arsenal cannot feel sorry for itself today, we simply cannot afford it, if we want this season to be one in which we [...]

Should Arteta switch the formation up against Liverpool?

Blimey. Talk about so much #content you don't know where to even start, eh? Yesterday we got Mikel Arteta's press conference and there were some spicy and fantastic words said by the manager. Then we had wind of a bid from a Saudi Arabian team for Aubameyang. That was followed by the rumours of betting [...]

Keep it respectable, Arsenal

It's game day and I don't think I've ever been as in the dark over how Arsenal might line up tonight for the semi final of the League Cup, as I have for this evenings game against Victim FC/Cheat FC, given our current problems. Question marks are hanging over whether Granit Xhaka has come out [...]

Forest away – Arsenal must control the narrative and quieten the crowd

Morning folks and welcome to matchday. It is one of my most favourite match days of the year actually; FA Cup third round day. A chance to travel to a ground that you don't often go to and for me I haven't been to the City Ground, so a new one to tick off the [...]

Pepe and Nketiah to get a shot against Norwich?

By |2021-12-26T08:34:16+00:00December 26th, 2021|Arsenal FC, Attack, gooners, Gunners, Match Preview, Mikel Arteta, premier league, Tactics|0 Comments

It’s match day and a Boxing Day one in which Arsenal face a struggling Norwich side who currently sit bottom of the league having picked up two wins and four draws all season. They have found it struggling even since Dean Smith took over and even have a fair few injury and COVID problems today, [...]
