Hello, hello, hello, how are you doing today? Are you feeling chipper now that we're knocking down the doors of the North London Derby game on Saturday? I'm not. Hate this fixture more than anything else. Home or away, I hate it. The worry, the nerves, the stress, it all just builds until the moment [...]
They say that 'ignorance is bliss' and today let us play tribute to the Mayor of Ignorant Town, a certain former Arsenal employee, Mr Raul Sanllehi. He's been chirping in The Athletic about his time at Arsenal, now that his slunk his way back in to football with a job at Real Zaragoza, deciding that [...]
Happy Wednesday peeps. How you doing? Are you feeling chipper even though we're on an international break now? I know I still am. Sitting top of the table will do that to you. I think it is because we all know that in reality it won't last, which is why we're maybe taking this 'top [...]
Morning folks and happy Tuesday to you and yours. Hopefully you're feeling good and all is well? In the footballing world it all feels a little, well, unclear if I'm completely honest with you. Last weekend we had the postponement of football fixtures everywhere as a mark of respect, yet for most sports they continued [...]
I can see that Richard Keys was doubling down on his Celebration Police narrative after the Wolves v Newcastle game. Yesterday I saw that he’d made comments about the players and the manager celebrating a 2-1 victory like it was a trophy they had secured. He was bleating on about the fact that it’s ‘only [...]
No pleasantries this morning, straight in to the 'WTF' moment and as you and I were at home patiently scrolling through our social media feeds, news broke of the utterly horrendous deal Arsenal had done for Bernd Leno. £3million up front is a borderline insult for such a 'keeper, with £1million if he plays a [...]
Morning, morning, morning people and welcome to 'The Countdown' - it all kicks off this Friday with The Arsenal and I personally cannot wait. But before I go back to talking about The Arsenal men's team, it would be remiss of me not to tip my hat to the England Women's football team, who went [...]
Last night I jumped on a podcast with a few people and we talked about the season as a whole. The ups, the downs and the randoms. It was good to get on it and have enough distance between the crushing end of the season and look at the season as a whole, but much [...]
Looks like Alexandre Lacazette has been keeping his eyes open and options available for his next move, having spoken to French TV, who yesterday released his comments about having multiple offers from teams and also wanting to play for a Champions League club. I'm sure you do Alex, I'm sure you do. But let's not [...]
I chose my words to the title for today's musings quite carefully here. I know there are people that are convinced that Arteta is, from a tactical perspective, a man who knows his onions and he has shown that at times this season. I also know that there are a proportion - a small one [...]
