I didn't get a good night's sleep last night. Why? Because I was deliberating over whether or not to even apply for the ballot for the Champions League final. How mental is that? I am a season ticket holder. I have been going for decades and have been a season ticket holder for nearly two [...]
I don't really feel I can start anywhere else today other than the third - and what should have been the final penalty call on the night - was given/not given. I don't understand. I am really glad that Mikel Arteta said he was infuriated with the decision, because what I saw last was a [...]
There we just two things that were good about yesterday's performance and result against Southampton: I predicted the line-up spot on Max Dowman Perhaps you could also point to the impact Viktor Gyokeres made from the bench, following up his goals for Sweden with a smartly taken finish to draw us level in that second [...]
Yesterday, I led with the title of the blog: Stop breaking our players. At this point, you just have to laugh. Because the latest guy to return to London Colney is Pierro Hincapie, who limped off against Morocco on 72 minutes, and I have to wonder what the actual eff he was still doing on the [...]
Madueke's withdrawal was expected from the Engaldn Camp. He was pictured leaving the match on Friday in a knee brace, so I don't think anyone was surprised that the outcome was that he'd return back to London Colney. But Saka? And Rice? Apparently, according to the official England Football website, it is for 'medical assessment.' [...]
So, as probably most of us predicted, Ben White got the England boo-boys treatment yesterday, which is odd given he got it after he'd actually put England in front against Uruguay with his tap-in at the back post. I didn't watch the game (because why would I bother?), but having listened to Tuchel on Thursday, I [...]
Football karma man, it sucks. The footballing gods in particular, man, they hate me. So I want to take this moment to offer a public apology to all of you guys who read my ramblings regularly: I have let you all down. I went Uber-positive on Sunday's blog. It was a break from the norm. I [...]
That was an utter disgrace yesterday. I am starting this blog the night of the game. I never do that. This was an unprofessional Arsenal performance. This was a disgraceful performance. I am embarrassed. This is falling apart. Two wins in nine. This is a football side who have spent two-thirds of the season being [...]
I have a real sense of gnawing frustration this morning. I watched the United/City game, and I just assumed United would be pants and City cut our lead, not the other way around, so by the time kick off came for our game, I was buzzing. There's nothing like a Sean Dyche mid-block slog-fest to [...]
Yesterday morning I was brushing my teeth and I was thinking about the Big Gabi injury. I thought to myself "it feels like every time we get an injury update from a Fabrizio Romano or an Ornstein Bomba with regards to injuries over the last 12 - 18 months, it's always been worse than is first [...]
