Lavia links make a lotta sense

This might be a short one today, on account of the fact that there really is bugger all happening in the world of Arsenal right now. Well, I’m sure that’s not strictly true, because I’m sure Edu, Richard Garlick and the other back office staff who deal with contracts and transfers are doing something, but [...]

Arsenal’s fixtures next season means a strong start is required

Howdy folks, we all good? Well, we know what our start looks like in the Premier League and, I'll have to admit, it could have been worse. That's because it could have been like the first season under Arteta where we had three quite tricky games back-to-back and that put us on the back foot [...]

Havertzing a laugh?

As the old cliche goes: football is a game of opinions. And this blog is my opinion. Often misinformed, regularly incorrect, sometimes just plain wrong. But it is opinions nonetheless and that's what it'll always be. That caveat out the way, let's get in to the big breaking news yesterday, delivered to us in the [...]

Can’t see Arteta wanting to stop the Partey

By |2023-06-14T07:45:48+01:00June 14th, 2023|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, midfield, Mikel Arteta, pre season|2 Comments

I see that there are a few noises out there today (and last night) about us potentially using this summer as the opportunity to perhaps cash in on Thomas Partey, with apparent interest from Italy coming a few clubs, if you are to believe what is being sounded out online. And with this one I'm [...]

Arsenal won’t Mbappe, will they?

There are some very wishful thinkers in the Arsenal fanbase, that's for sure, because if anybody thinks that we're truly going even get a sniff - let alone drop a cursory star - at Kylian Mbappe this summer after the news emerged that he will not activate his additional year clause and that PSG are [...]

Do Arsenal really need another striker?

There's not many of you who will probably know this, but on my Dad's side of the family there is an army of West Ham fans, with my Dad having been brought up in Stratford and his family all dating back to Whitechapel and the surrounding areas of East London. My brother chose to support [...]

A horrible kit and a change of tactical versatility for The Arsenal?

Happy Saturday gooners, hope all is well in your respective worlds? As you'd expect it's a quiet one in the Arsenal universe, with the English footballing eyes all on United versus City today. Personally I'm not sure I'll bother watching; it's a cup final between two teams that I don't like very much, so why [...]

When do you get bored of the transfer ‘exclusives’?

By |2023-06-02T10:20:01+01:00June 2nd, 2023|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Manager, Arsenal Transfers, Gunners, Mikel Arteta, pre season, premier league|1 Comment

Morning folks and welcome to Friday. It's the first footballess Friday of the summer and I'm still in that weird zone whereby the old season is sill fresh in my mind, so I'm still in a "kind of ready for the summer and a bit of a rest from the stress of watching" vibe. It [...]

Saliba situation: A journo decided to ‘get in there early’ this summer

'Tis the season to be...... ....Worried about every single transfer rumour that gets banded about, apparently, and I am by no means an exception it seems. For yesterday in the morning - after I'd written my daily musings on here first thing, a story emerged about how Arsenal could be resigned to losing Saliba this [...]

Smith Rowe is a no-go

When David Ornstein dropped his latest Ornbomb (see below) about how Arsenal had no intention of selling Emile Smith Rowe this summer, there were a fair few members of the online community that I follow who expressed a wee bit of surprise. Positive surprise, but surprise nonetheless. He's a popular player, he's one of our [...]
