I think even before the news broke of the Al Hilal deal for Gabriel Martinelli, we all knew it was going to happen. He hadn't been in the squad for the Community Shield, he'd looked a bit sheepish and reluctant to take part in the dancing and frivolity that day. He hadn't made any squads, [...]
The good thing about us playing on Monday night was that it means we've got less time to wait until the weekend, and easily the biggest of the three games so far this season against Chelsea. Because of that, I'm hopeful that the thnkpieces from journos (and to be fair, bloggers like me) about how [...]
So Transfer Deadline Day came and went and we found ourselves with no incomings, and just the confirmations that both Fabio Vieira and Gabriel Jesus had left the club for Hamburg and Barcelona, respectively. Of course, there's no news on Martinelli yet, but that's because the Saudi Pro League deadline day doesn't finish until 6th September, [...]
Ahead of the Premier League kicking off for us on Friday, yesterday was clearly media day at London Colney, because we've had Men in Blazers doing an interview with Arteta, Sky Sports sat down with him, plus Dan Roan from the BBC also talked to Richard Garlick. All of the interviews are worth a watch; [...]
Looks like Bruno G is on his way. The last horses are crossing the finish line - Newcastle-based journos - and they're now starting to report that he's met new manager Matthias Jaissle, and told him that he wants to make this move, which means it'll be sanctioned for around the £75million mark. So for [...]
It's the weekend, so we all need a little excitement for it, right? Yes, there's a game on today as Arsenal take on Girona, but you and I both know that isn't the first thing that popped into your mind - was it? Step forward our guy HandOfArsenal: 🚨 EXCL : Arsenal Football Club have [...]
Yeah, I'd like us to have some news about a signing at The Arsenal, but it could be worse, right? We could be trying a pre covid 'get the band back together' veterans tour like Chelsea are doing, eh? All jokes aside, whilst I have no problem with them bringing in elder statesmen like Henderson, [...]
So...Vini Junior, eh? Did you see that coming? I certainly didn't, but Messrs Ornstein and McNicholas dropped an Athletic Bomba on our social media feeds, and yesterday was spent with Arsenal fans recalibrating their 'dream starting XI' for next season, with the Brazilian superstar firmly placed in it on that left wing. It's exciting, isn't [...]
It's Saturday The Arsenal have still not kicked off matches yet, so my hope is that they are using the time effectively to "Spend some faaaakin' money!". A bit of a blast-from-the-past phrase to bust out, I know, but you'd hope Andrea Berta is somewhere doing something to augment the squad soon. Tzolis was a [...]
Now that we know that Big Bill Saliba is out for an 'extended period', Arsenal's need for a little more expediency in the transfer market has become even more acute. We all already knew, in reality, because we've been hearing the stories from the French press. But as an Arsenal fan, you still await to [...]
