Happy match day folks - hope we're all good? Well, I say "happy" match day, but we all know that is predicated on whether Arsenal can collect all three points tonight against a red-hot Aston Villa on fine form at the moment, and going into this game feeling like they can beat anybody. And they [...]
It;s Monday, I think, and at some stage between now and midnight we'll get a team update from Mikel Arteta. By which time whatever I say now will probably be old news. So rather than look at what's going on with Arsenal, why don't we have a look at what we might face with Aston [...]
It’s Brighton at home today in what is sure to be a really tricky encounter for Mikel Arteta’s men. For a number of years now, Brighton have been one of those clubs that you say things like “they play decent football” or “they’re a well-run club,” and over the years at The Emirates, they’ve given [...]
I know it is the EFL cup. I know it's a fixture pile-up in January. And yeah, I know that we have bigger fish to fry in other competitions. But you can't say that when it went to penalties, and those players responded that they didn't want this. They all do. And let's be honest, [...]
It's the EFL Cup tonight for The Arsenal and whilst most other teams are prepping for their Christmas schedule, our lads have to overcome what has become quite an impressive opponent in the shape of Oliver Glasner's Crystal Palace. Admittedly they were pretty terrible against a rejuvenated Leeds United side last weekend and some of [...]
I didn't watch the Villa-United game yesterday, but I suspected Villa might win it and when you look at that winning run, you have to say 'fair f*cks' to those players and Unai. Morgan Rogers is in the form of his life for Villa and that is propelling them forward as we speak. Then, on [...]
Review of Arsenal’s win at Everton in December 2025
I have mixed feelings about tonight's game away at Everton, you know. One the one hand, we have had a full week of training for the players, there are plenty of training pics that show key players are back in the squad and fit for tonight, plus we got an update from Mikel that Big [...]
Before we get to the Arsenal of today, let's take a pause and reflect on the Arsenal of yesteryear, as one of our greatest ever players was awarded with a lifetime achievement award at the BBC Sports Personality of the Year. Thierry Henry - my favourite ever player and a guy with whom I've been able [...]
Morning Gooners and welcome to Wednesday. We'll be on day two of the training sessions for the team and yesterday pictures emerged of day one, which included players missing like Havertz and Gabriel as we'd expect, but not Martin Zubimendi. Apparently he was training indoors as the club try to manage his load management which, [...]
