Big one tonight lads and lasses. It's a second leg Champions League tie against FC Porto and Arsenal have a one goal deficit that they need to overcome if there is to be more Champions League football played at The Emirates this season. Mikel Arteta and his players know exactly what is needed and they [...]
In classic Chris style, yesterday I predicted that we wouldn't get Arteta's press conference until today, so of course Arteta went in front of the press yesterday to talk about the upcoming showdown against Brentford tomorrow in the early evening. If you ever see me at the races, bet on the horses I'm not picking! [...]
The main news that I'm hearing about this morning is that Takehiro Tomiyasu has agreed a new deal with The Arsenal, as we move to tie down more of those trusted players that Arteta likes in his squad, per various sources yesterday. For me I think this is the right thing to do. He's a [...]
Yesterday I leaned in to the whole "let's just get the win and not get carried away with ourselves talking up goal difference, eh?" approach, thinking that I didn't want to tempt fate and have some pre game arrogance see us lose to a pretty bad Sheffield United game. How wrong I was. Apparently you [...]
I make Arteta right when he was in front of the press last week talking about tonight's game at Brammall Lane against Sheffield United: this will not be easy. I've seen a few Gooners online talking about the need to pick up plenty of goals and continue our good scoring form, but we're into March [...]
First and foremost, before we get cracking on the team news following Arteta's presser yesterday, a word for Declan Rice, who won the London footballer of the year award at a ceremony last night. A fully deserved award who helped bring a trophy to West Ham and who has joined Arsenal for a big fee [...]
Ahhh wasn't it nice to see Jurrien Timber back in training with the first team, eh? arsenal posted some pictures of him on the Emirates turf and after a tumultuous start to his Arsenal career caused by that ACL injury, he will feel like he can finally get back on track and make the most [...]
This morning before I headed in to the office I did my usual run to get my day started and I listened to another podcast that is on my regular rotation, from the lads over at The Arsenal Opinion podcast and they got in to a discussion that I've been thinking about myself over the [...]
Happy Monday Gooners, how we all doing? As much as the Liverpool/Klopp Farewell tour is a little cringe, the upside of yesterday's League Cup victory for them over Chelsea is at least that the 'Billion Pound Bottle Jobs' as Gary Neville put it, haven't won a trophy and therefore the blue side of West London [...]
That was a lot of fun yesterday, wasn’t it? We wanted revenge, we came for revenge, we got revenge. There was no ‘desgracia’ yesterday at The Emirates, because an excellent Arsenal team dispatched a shaky Newcastle team, leaving the home fans once again in dreamland as chants of “who put the ball in the Geordie’s [...]
