Liverpool and Chelski out, City all but gone against Barca and Arsenal remain the only hope for British success in the Champions League.How did that happen?I'm not complaining though. Certainly not as much as Chelski players were, apparently, last night. I've seen plenty of friends comment on the antics of the West Londoners, but I'm [...]
I'm still buzzing about the result on Monday night. More so than I thought I'd be actually. Probably more so because I know there's a Wembley semi final that lies in wait and, although we can't be presumptive enough to assume we'll waltz our way into the final (see Wigan last season as a case [...]
That, like Crystal Palace before it two weeks ago, felt like a big three points yesterday. There will undoubtedly be those that will look at the score line and simply shrug it off with an "it was only QPR", but we were made to sweat a bit for those three points, both in the first [...]
Much like Chelski and Tiny Totts are to us all metaphor ally speaking, I have a real pain in my neck this morning, which caused me no amount of irritation when trying to get to sleep last night. Honestly, it's like Jose Mourinho himself had pulled up a chair and started jabbing me in the [...]
With The Management in situ, blue skies overhead, as well as the ability to share some of the amber nectar before the game after a month off it, Arsenal duly delivered exactly what was needed on Sunday lunchtime with a serving of delicious three-pointage.It doesn't really matter that it was closer than we would have [...]
Arsene faced the media yesterday and, probably as you'd expect, he was reasonably defiant after an appalling game in midweek. He didn't rule us out of a 'miracle' as Big Per has put it, but equally he didn't retract some of the criticism for the team from Wednesday. It's the right thing to do, because [...]
I usually avoid any kind of football topics that aren't Arsenal related, but after seeing Jose Mourinho's less than subtle attempt to have more air time to push through his own personal agenda through the medium of Sky Sports' Goals on Sunday, I feel compelled to say something through my own soapbox platform, which is [...]
I don't know why, but yesterday's game with Crystal Palace felt like a really big result, in the context of our Premier League season. There were many people I spoke to during the week who were pretty convinced that we were going to go to Selhurst Park and sweep aside a Palace side who have [...]
So we're back in league action today and it's a tricky game at Selhurst park in which the media seem to be all voting for us as their picks for victories this weekend. It's nice to know what supposed 'neutrals' think when looking at games and who should win, but as usual I'm not as [...]
With the Crystal Palace game about 30 hours away, all of the focus turns back towards the Premier League today with Le Boss' press conference ahead of the trip to Selhurst Park. We've already had an injury update from the manager, confirming that Ramsey is three days in to a three week rehab programme, as [...]
