Big game today. VERY big game. Made even bigger, even tougher, by the fact we have a number of question marks over players. We know Odegaard and Saliba are 100% out, we can be pretty sure about Calafiori, but what about Saka? Timber? There are so many questions that we all want answered and all [...]
One more day to go until the big showdown against Liverpool and the managers have both had their say. So, what have we learned? From Arteta As usual on the injury front, not a lot really, but I think none of us expected to get any real detail to be honest. On Saka, Timber and [...]
All eyes will be on London Colney this morning as we all collectively pray for some happy news from Mikel's press conference. We won't of course get anything concrete, but that doesn't stop us getting all hopeful and slightly frustrated when he goes all cryptic, as he always does. It's not like when players are [...]
Welcome to the part of the week in which we Arsenal fans should be calling this season: Praying time. It's that period in which we still have a solid three-and-a-bit days before we play, we won't get Mikel Arteta's press conference until tomorrow, so all we're doing is scrolling through endless speculative injury-update ITKs saying [...]
Spent the weekend at an AirBnB which had it's own sauna, cinema room, jacuzzi and pool this weekend, so when I woke up yesterday having watched the game on m iPad, I couldn't really be arsed to pen any thoughts. Why ruin a perfect Sunday ahead by re-living the memory, eh? A new week also [...]
Tricky one, this one today, because Bournemouth are no mugs. As Arteta said, Antonio Iraloa has created a well-drilled, well-coached, progressive passing (they’re seventh in the league on progressive passing numbers just behind us, Liverpool, Brighton, City and The Scum) team who have not had some of the results they - and a few - [...]
I don't usually lead with stuff about the Arsenal women, because I'm not as close to the goings on, but seeing the news break yesterday that Jonas Eidevall had resigned as Head Coach was a bit of a surprise, I have to say. It's also very unusual these days to see a coach resign rather [...]
Ok so it looks like Rice is safe from injury, following playing (and scoring) last night in the England game against Finland. I didn't bother watching it, I wasn't interested in it, I've just checked in to see the score and see some of the goals and Rice's one was a classic lung-buster from our [...]
As you'd expect on the eve of the current Interlull, there's very little Arsenal news rumbling on at the moment - well, Arsenal men's news, that is. I am not really up to speed on much of the Women's stuff but I saw they lost to Bayern yesterday evening and after a disappointing draw against Everton, [...]
So it sounds as if we've got some returning players due to come back for the Bournemouth game, which is a bit of a relief given that Partey didn't go to Ghana international duty due to illness and Havertz withdrew with knee problems. I talked about Havertz yesterday, so won't repeat myself, but Partey also [...]
