Quite often when I write my daily ramblings I just start typing without really knowing what the title of the blog will be. Usually it just comes to me as I draw my final conclusions. But today is different in that I've started with the title and I'm working my way from there. That's because [...]
When I woke up yesterday morning I thought to myself: “don’t bother about City; they smash Southampton (who are terrible), it’ll be all on us for tomorrow, the media narrative will be set, just prepare for it”. But as much as you can tell yourself that, as much as you know what will happen, there [...]
I don't know about you guys, but when I saw that Thomas Partey was an unused substitute in the game against Angola yesterday evening, my initial thought was of relief. After all, if he's made the bench, then he must be available to be used, right? I mean, otherwise if he isn't fit to play [...]
Happy Monday to you lovely Gooners. How we all doing today? I see that the media love-in for Man United has started. They waxed lyrical throughout the League Cup final and then afterwards too, as United celebrated their first cup in six years. Apparently this is going to spearhead them to inevitable glory now. We [...]
I said yesterday with a brash tone "they're sure to have a press conference today as I would imagine they'll be travelling up to Everton on Friday given the game is a 12.30pm kick off on Saturday". So of course there was no such presser, once again proving that a) I know absolutely nothing about [...]
Morning folks, how we all doing? Having a good one? I'm struggling to shift a bloody annoying sore throat and cough at the moment, which isn't ideal, but I guess it's the time of year n'that... It's also the time of the season where the dust has settled on the transfer window, the second half [...]
Morning folks and welcome to the day after transfer deadline day. We got through it. Phew. Let's start with the main bit of news that only emerged on Monday and was done by Tuesday. Jorginho joins The Arsenal for something around £12million. I've been saying on social media that I don't completely hate this deal [...]
So here we are folks. This has to be one of the WORST days of the footballing calendar: January Transfer Deadline Day. Honestly, it is like how the big retailers love Valentines Day because it fills the void between Christmas and Easter and means that they get to eek out a little more from the [...]
Welcome to Transfer Deadline Day week folks. Strap yourselves in, because the next 40ish hours or so are going to be rather trying, as usual, I suspect. I said I wasn't going to get too connected to the Moises Caicedo stuff, but after flying back from Newcastle last night hand having a solid hour and [...]
Morning fellow Gooners, hope you're all well on this Sunday morn. It feels a little quiet waking up today in the Arsenal world, after the game on Friday and also the release of information about our £60million Caicedo bid. I am in Northumberland at the moment and I spent a lot of time yesterday with [...]
