Howdy folks and welcome to Tuesday - how we all doing? I've woken up feeling a bit chipper and that is grand. I don't know why though; maybe just a good night sleep and after the grim grey day of yesterday it is sunny outside today. It won't last - this is England. And it [...]

Raya Arsenal links are puzzling

Morning Gooners, we all good? I drank far too much wine yesterday to be able to rouse myself from bed and so yesterday became a bit of a blogging write off. But today is a new week and I'm ready and raring to go, starting off with the Ornstein news that broke yesterday afternoon that [...]

Edu needs to get a wriggle on with outgoings

They finally unveiled the Arsene Wenger statue yesterday. It's a three-and-a-half metre tall bronzed statue with Arsene lifting the Premier League trophy and, I have to say, enough time has passed for me to be appreciating and thanking the man who brought so much joy to our lives. Three Premier League titles and countless FA [...]

Can you make a case for Fabio Vieira this season?

Morning folks, how are we all doing on this Friday morn? Rubbish night sleep means that I thought I'd drag my sorry arse out of bed early to take advantage of the day, which also means getting my daily Arsenal content fix a little earlier than usual and after the fixture yesterday was in the [...]

Impressive and intense Arsenal show the strength of the squad against Barca

This is probably the weirdest post match blog I've ever written. Weird in the fact that at the time of writing, the friendly game in LA against Barcelona only finished about an hour ago and because I was in bed for the actual game (It's a school night for me, kids), it feels a little [...]

Does Zinchenko’s absence force tactical changes for Forest at home in three weeks?

Morning Gooners, how we all doing? Been away from the blog for the last two days on account of a case of food poisoning that I got from a restaurant in London Waterloo on Saturday night. Wiped me out for two days but ready and rocking after what it feels like some mammoth sleeps and [...]

For us here in the UK it’s a late night kick off for the friendly against Man United this season, but given I’m out and about today, that kind of suits me, as when I get home I’ll be able to have a little look at the score and then do a rewatch of the [...]

The unpredictability of the Arsenal family

So we're on a countdown now until our next pre season friendly on Saturday night at 10pm UK time and, if we're all honest, this one feels like it's REALLY kicking it up a notch, am I right? That's because it's Man United in New York and it represents an opportunity to see where we [...]

Arsenal purring as pre season kicks off properly

Now THAST is how you kick off a summer tour as a football club. Forget about the fact that the MLS All Stars have had just a few days of training together, forget about the fact that they are a composition of the best players from the American 'Soccer' League, this was an emphatic Arsenal [...]

Arteta isn’t done on transfers?

So the lads are in the US prepping for the MLS all stars game and as a result of that Arteta has been speaking ahead of the tour to the press. It's been covered fairly extensively and you can read word-for-word what he's said here, so I thought I'd pluck out a few of the [...]
