Morning folks and welcome to the last Friday pre match ramble of this Premier League season. There will be plenty of time for a review of the season and reflect on how good it is, but much like those Arsenal players having to forget whatever happens in Manchester (although we're all 99.9% in the know [...]

Don’t assume Bournemouth are on the beach, Arsenal

Another day, another 'cup final' for The Arsenal and I have to tell you, they all seem to get more intense with each passing week. I thought Wolves was bad. Then I thought Chelsea was worse. The NLD was horrible in the build up, so how do I feel EVEN MORE nervous now than I did [...]

Well, that was a bloody load of fun, wasn’t it? Pre game I was nervous. I’ll hold my hands up to that. I didn’t know what kind of Chelsea we’d be up against. Pochettino said beforehand Palmer would be missing, that Gusto wouldn’t be there and that Chilwell wasn’t fit. I’ve heard that story before. [...]

It's another match day today and another opportunity for me to get too worried and stressed ahead of yet another 'cup final' for The Arsenal, as we take on Chelsea at the Emirates in what I believe, is going to be a very tough game. These always are. Last season's felt relatively comfortable, but that's [...]

How much changes can Arteta realistically make to the team for tonight?

Mikel Arteta had his press conference in the afternoon yesterday and the first good news is that Timber aside, everyone is fine to play this evening. I had a look at Wolves yesterday and from what Gary O'Neill said in his press conference, there is no Neto, as he has only just come back from [...]

And so the Champions League run for The Arsenal comes to an end. Not with a bang, but sadly with a bit of a whimper, as Bayern saw out a tense affair in Munich by beating us 1-0 with that second half headed goal by Kimmich. It was a momentary lapse of concentration from our [...]

Morning folks and happy match day to you and yours. Let's hope it's an enjoyable one for all Gooners all over the world. But this match is far from a foregone conclusion. Aston Villa represent a very tough opponent and I have to say, whilst for the last couple of days I'vevbeen feeling good about [...]

Arsenal must remain patient and resolute – this is still Bayern

Here we are boys and girls. The big one tonight. It's Bayern Munich at the Emirates and as soon as the draw was made a few weeks back, we all collectively took an intake of breath as Arsenal fans, because we all know the history of playing them in this competition. It ain't great. 12 [...]

We're back up and running again today with another Arsenal match as we try to navigate this death run month that is April and it's a trip to The Amex for Arteta's lads in the early evening kick off game. And folks, I gotta tell ya, I think this will be a tough one tonight. [...]

It’s the big one today and, as I suspected but didn’t say, the butterflies and nerves for this game against City later on are starting to kick in. Arsenal travel to Manchester trying to do something we haven’t managed to do in nine previous attempts in all competitions. You have to go back eight years [...]
