Arsenal kicked off their pre season yesterday with a 1-0 win over Milan and sure as eggs is eggs, it was Bukayo Saka who was the difference maker. Annoyingly I wasn't able to watch the game in full because I was at work, but even if I'd have been off, there's zero chance I'm paying [...]
As we edge ever closer towards Gyokeres' move to Arsenal, with Sporting and Arsenal now reportedly 'close' on all elements and structure of the deal according to that guy Fabrizio, Arsenal out in Singapore spent yesterday giving us chapter and verse over the new away kit. It's fine. It's better than that fluorescent yellow and [...]
Tomorrow it's Atalanta in the new phase of the Champions League and for some reason unbeknownst to myself, I decided to watch Villa away to Young Boys and then Liverpool away to Milan. Well, the first half of that one, anyway. I say 'unbeknownst' mainly because watching other teams in the Champions League isn't really [...]
More football to feast on! And what a game to observe! I'm sure it was even entertaining for the neutral too, to see two great sides duke it out.....in Dubai! Yep, we got our second pre season 2.0 friendly yesterday for The Arsenal yesterday afternoon and it was another victory and another penalty shootout win [...]

Excuse me whilst I take a breath to sarcastically laugh at the UEFA statement in response to Arsenal's statement about the cup final in a week and a half's time. Hahahahahaha.....hahahaha....haha...ha....sigh... What an absolute joke that organisation are. "For UEFA, fans are a priority". No, they're really not. Perhaps that should have read slightly different: [...]
Back in Blighty and back to normality for me after Portugal and New York at the weekend and whilst I was hoping to talk about the Newcastle game, impact of Torreira, Xhaka, etc, etc, it's Gazidis who seems to be dominating the topic of conversation after Arseblog News broke the story that he's set to [...]
Happy 'middle-o-week' day to you and your kin. I hope it shall be a fruitful one and you take advantage of the day. Arsenal still reside in Singapore and we're getting plenty of emoji-based icons to denote how hard they're working, how they're doing double sessions, all the while being given more access to backroom [...]
