Arrogant Arsenal slip up at West Ham

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 [...]

Start fast and hopefully quieten West Ham down

Ahh man am I hungover. Started off with a stein at lunchtime and it slowly descended from there. So I’m feeling a bit fragile this morning. Don’t make my day worse Arsenal, please, I’m begging you. City made light work of Leicester City as we thought and so it means that if we want to [...]

The Saliba worry, the West Ham focus

Well we got our press conference from the boss yesterday and for me the one worrying thing that stood out was the Saliba update. We've all talked about it online, in the pubs amongst fellow Gooners, about how back injuries are apparently tough to get over and diagnose. But when you have an update from [...]

Arsenal must stop the long Liverpool diagonals

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 [...]

Arteta plays a straight bat pre Liverpool

Tricky Micky Arteta had his press conference yesterday and, as expected, didn’t really give away much in terms of team news. I suppose the best news is that we have no fresh injuries from last weekend. That is good enough for me because at this stage of the season the last thing we want to [...]

What is it about the North West for The Arsenal?

Happy Good Friday to you and yours. Hope you have nice things planned with the family. I'm spending the day doing jobs before sauntering over to the Mother-in-Laws so I can vegetate for a few days and just spend my time relaxing. Except I won't really ever 'relax' properly, because of what looms on the [...]

Giving Trossard his props

Morning folks. How we all doing? Nervous anticipation ahead of Sunday? Or like me are you just nervous? There will be a press conference today from Mikel Arteta, in which we'll get an update on player availability, with the likelihood of confirmation being that Saliba is out for the weekend. I said my bit on [...]

Making a case for the increasingly likely start of Rob Holding

I didn't bother to watch the Chelsea versus Liverpool game. I already knew how the script would play out; Liverpool looking ropey, Chelsea not able to finish their dinner, a game in which Football365 has already labelled 'El Sh*tico' would be a waste of an evening. Of course I still wanted to know how the game [...]

Arsenal do their job against Leeds – nine to go

Ahh man am I hungover. I got to Highbury & Islington tube station at around 12.35 - about an hour earlier than I normally do - so I could watch the City versus Liverpool game. What a waste of time that was. I hope the Scousers are that rubbish when they play us, although I [...]
