Toney’s tale doesn’t involve The Arsenal

Happy Monday folks. We all good? I had a lovely weekend after the football and yesterday spent the day in the sun with the family watching bits and pieces of the Brentford/Palace game, then the Chelsea/City game. No Ivan Toney for Brentford and Thomas Frank afterwards suggested it was because his head wasn't right because [...]

Arsenal firm on Eddie and Aaron – I’m liking it

With the clock ticking down on the start of the season, it appears the club are trying to sort out those deals to finalise the team for 2024/25 and yesterday we got one or two titbits from some of the respected journo's about where we are at with some of the outgoings, specifically. On Eddie [...]

Some big money moves at other clubs – and I’m glad we’re not sniffing a them

Happy Saturday folks - how we all doing? I'm going to start with something that I usually try to avoid - talking about The Scum - but it's only because there's little else going on and some of their fans will be getting a bit excited that they're spending £654million on Dominic Solanke from Bournemouth. [...]

Looking at Leverkusen; but is anyone looking at Nketiah?

It's Bayker Leverkusen tonight for The Arsenal in a game that feels like the first 'proper' friendly match this summer, if that makes sense? What I mean by that is that Arsenal are back on home soil, it's close enough to the new season that the team should be getting back to fitness, we have [...]

Arsenal’s strong transfer bargaining position is a welcome sight

Happy Tuesday campers, we all good? Tomorrow the team line up against Leverkusen in our penultimate friendly before the season kicks off properly and it'll be the return of Xhaka who I'm sure will get a good reception. I suspect Arteta might do something today, maybe not a press conference (or maybe he will?) but [...]

The Smith ends his Arsenal era, with Eddie potentially next out

We knew the day would come, we've been speaking about it for a while, but yesterday it was confirmed that Emile Smith Rowe, ESR, 'The Smith', left Arsenal signed for Fulham on a permanent transfer. I don't think I've seen such a universal sadness from Arsenal fans for a player who had essentially become a [...]

Calafiori’s arrival shows how Arteta is constantly evolving

So, we have ourselves another Italian, as Riccardo Calafiori was officially announced by the club as our second major first team means signing of the summer, arriving from Bologna. It’s a good deal, it seems a fair price, Arteta has his man and we have ourselves another left back to add to our stockpile. We’ve [...]

Calafiori might spell Kiwior’s exit, but Arsenal don’t have to be forced into being lowballed…

By |2024-07-24T08:53:10+01:00July 24th, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Defence, Gunners, History, pre season, Transfers|0 Comments

The sloth edges ever closer to his tree, the perfect spot for his resting place... That's what it feels like with this Calafiori deal, eh? Last night another couple of journalists dropping the "here we go!" soundbites, in an eagerness to be the 'first past the post' in declaring a transfer confirmed. At this stage [...]

Arsenal’s truncated transfer period

Just a few short days after the final and Gareth Southgate has decided to step down as England manager. And I always find the narrative in the media and on social media as quite interesting when this sort of stuff happens. Suddenly everyone is out saying what a fantastic job he did, how he did [...]

Smith Rowe could go, but do Arsenal need to watch the home grown situation?

By |2024-07-16T08:41:29+01:00July 16th, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, gooners, Gunners, pre season, Transfers|0 Comments

Morning folks and welcome to Tuesday, where the whirring of the transfer window appears to be up and running already, it seems. Last night it was Emile Smith Rowe's turn to be thrust into the spotlight, as Sky Sports ran with a story that Fulham and Palace are both interested in his signature. That's probably [...]
