A later one from me today, as the new job means conference calls first thing on a Friday, but given that it's been an interlull week I guess that it doesn't really make a lot of difference. Ol' Unai has taken to doing his pressers in the afternoon anyway so it's not like I have [...]
My poor ol' lookalike. The one, the only, the Lord, Nick Bentdner, has been sentenced to 'jail' for a assaulting a taxi driver; a crime he thinks he did not commit. If only there was some kind of crack team of vigilantes (they themselves who had been victims of a crime of which they did [...]
Happy Friday people. Hope it goes well for you and your kin. Me, I'm toiling in the boredom levels of no Arsenal to think constantly about, but the fact I have my folks over for the weekend and the fact The Management and I are doing a bit of tourism in London tomorrow is keeping [...]
So Welbz has had his second operation in his ankle and as the club reported on the official site it has gone as well as can be hoped. Not being any kind of medical professional I have no idea what his timescale for recovery is and you can understand the club being reluctant to put [...]
Ahh man am I hanging this morning. Like, PROPER hanging, which is what booze will do to you. A LOT of booze. But what always sobers the mind is an Arsenal game and so as I hazily stab at my MacBook this morning (as I start today's blog it is technically morning, what with there being [...]
Happy Saturday unto thee. Although with the Welbeck situation, as well as the fact that the club are talking about Danny getting well soon, etc, I think we can put a few together to think that it's probably the worst. And that's a horrible situation. It's horrible for the player because with five goals this [...]
It was a weird old game yesterday. With the goals we've been getting all season and the plaudits from an attacking point of view but not a defensive one, it felt as though we should have been dispatching Sporting Lisbon with a little more ease on our own soil. After all we'd gone to their [...]
It's another Europa League game at the Emirates tonight and a chance to see if we can progress through the group stages and top the group with a win tonight against Sporting Lisbon. It's the part of the group that I'm sure many of us thought would be the biggest banana skin of them all [...]
A wet and grim day in London, made all the more grim because of that 'orrible lot getting a last minute winner yesterday but still, at least the scousers messed up and with a second defeat in the competition, they're hardly looking infallible. As for us it'll be some words from Unai and the medical [...]
There's little time for further analysis for Emery and his charges, with a potentially decisive game against Sporting Lisbon on the horizon in just over 60 hours time, that could have a further bearing on how we line up in future Europa League games. I suspect we'll be getting a bit of team news filtering [...]
