Hello again, fellow Gooners, welcome to Friday! Normally I'd be talking about how I'm excited for the football this weekend, but as we both know that is not the case, with us instead crossing everything that we get our players returning in one piece and not just the shattered remains of players handed back to [...]

How worried should we be about Thomas Partey’s injury?

By |2023-09-05T08:52:27+01:00September 5th, 2023|Arsenal FC, injuries, midfield, Mikel Arteta, premier league|1 Comment

The beauty about such a fabulous result as we got at the weekend, is that when it comes just before we all have to endure an international break, we can live through that results and string out the joy for a little bit longer than we normally would. For me personally, for example, I'd usually [...]

Last gasp Arsenal do it again against United

There's no other place to start today other than that super ending to a dramatic day and it is yet another injury time winner - or couple of winners - that sent us all in to dreamland at the Emirates against Man United. I'll go through the chronology of the day yesterday in a bit, [...]

Arsenal’s window has closed – are we better (is anyone)?

By |2023-09-02T09:35:35+01:00September 2nd, 2023|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Mikel Arteta, premier league|1 Comment

Deadline day came and deadline day went and what came out of it from an Arsenal perspective was a series of exits and no incomings. There are a few people who are questioning whether that was wise because after we started off the summer with a bloated squad, the view from some quarters of the [...]

A good Champions League draw and decent Premier League matches after each one

By |2023-09-01T08:43:26+01:00September 1st, 2023|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Champions League, gooners, Gunners, Mikel Arteta, premier league, press conference|0 Comments

Happy Friday peeps! Today is press conference day and so Mikel will be asked about the Champions League games, the game ahead against United, maybe even what he thinks about Brentford in the League Cup (although, maybe not ;-) ). There's also the small matter of the transfer window closing and I wonder if Mikel [...]

A ‘meh’ cup tie, the Champions League to come, plus a last minute deadline day deal for The Arsenal?

Right, plenty to get on with today, so let's get straight to it. First, the part of our fate for fixtures this season we do now know, which is that we will be playing Brentford away in the League Cup. That is probably one of the worst ties you could hope for in this competition. [...]

It’s good or it’s bad – an Arsenal fan’s binary view

Having been in the Cotswolds with friends enjoying some relaxation, booze and nice food, I managed to avoid the post match frustration from Saturday until yesterday evening. James and I did the Same Old Arsenal post match pod chat and, if I'm honest, on this occasion it didn't feel like as much catharsis as it [...]

It's match day in North London today! And that brings with it equal measures of excitement and trepidation. Always has, always will, but come 3pm Arteta and his players need to be ready to step up and do the business against a Fulham team smarting from a home 3-0 defeat last weekend against Brentford, as [...]

You know football is back when you look at the heart rate monitor and see that because of your elevated beats per minute, you've been fat burning on a Monday night from about 9pm onwards, despite sitting on your sofa. Specifically, you know you're an Arsenal fan who knows that football is back because as [...]
