I went for my run this morning, listened to an Arsenal podcast as I always do, digesting what's going on in the Arsenal world ahead of the latest game in the early hours of the morning in Philadelphia. These pre season games are useful as fitness exercises, as opportunities for fans from overseas to get [...]
So, we have ourselves another Italian, as Riccardo Calafiori was officially announced by the club as our second major first team means signing of the summer, arriving from Bologna. It’s a good deal, it seems a fair price, Arteta has his man and we have ourselves another left back to add to our stockpile. We’ve [...]
Happy Monday folks, we all good? It'll no doubt be a Riccardo Calafiori-infused week for us ahead of the Liverpool game and I'm sure that no sooner have I hit 'publish on today's ramblings, that they club will have announced his arrival. I guess it doesn't matter too much; we've said all there is to [...]
That's the second pre season game of the season done in the early hours of the morning my time and it was a 2-1 win for our lads against Erik "I AM FURIOUS ABOUT ARSENAL AND OFFSIDES" Ten Haag's Man United. You love to see it. He was apparently unhappy about our equaliser, which game [...]
Happy Friday folks. For me it's a Friday in which I am slightly worse for wear, on account of going to Wembley Stadium to see The Boss (not Mikel) bust out his tunes, so naturally I had a few beers whilst listening to Bruce Springsteen. I gotta tell you, felt a little weird being in [...]
As somebody who didn't stay up until 3.30am this morning to watch the Arsenal versus Bournemouth friendly game that went on in the early hours of the morning (UK time), it's very difficult for me to make a proper assessment. I'll level with you; I haven't even seen the two goals scored in the 1-1 [...]
The sloth edges ever closer to his tree, the perfect spot for his resting place... That's what it feels like with this Calafiori deal, eh? Last night another couple of journalists dropping the "here we go!" soundbites, in an eagerness to be the 'first past the post' in declaring a transfer confirmed. At this stage [...]
Howdy folks, hope we're all in fine fettle this Tuesday morning? The Arsenal 'squad' are in the US now and Arteta was interviewed ahead of the Bournemouth game tomorrow, as we prepare to take on Bournemouth in the early hours of the morning on Thursday UK time, which is the first time we've heard the [...]
Morning folks. Hope you're all good. Poor ol' Tomi, eh? Takehiro is not on tour with the rest of the squad over the next week and a bit because of a knee problem that some of the Arsenal journo's on the beat are saying relates to his knee. It means that he'll have two-to-three weeks [...]
So the players are back in training at London Colney and we're starting to get some vids and images of them knocking the ball around, preparing for the new season, which is enough to get your average Arsenal like me quite excited about what's to come over the next ten months or so. Gabriel Jesus [...]
