FINALLY! MATCHDAY! And it's Leeds United for The Arsenal for the early kick-off today, which means I'll be dumping these thoughts on here, going for a quick run, then making my way straight to Highbury for a pre-match warm-up with my mate Steve. These early ones are funny, I find, because they're usually a little [...]
The news broke that we kind of already knew yesterday, but it was still important and lovely to read nonetheless: Mikel Arteta has signed a new contract with The Arsenal This is fantastic news. Yes, everyone was 'calma' about it at The Arsenal; the journos 'in the know' were all saying it is pretty much [...]
Those of a certain religious persuasion would probably use the following phrase to discuss the now (thankfully) ended transfer MegaLull, when it comes to Arsenal players' performances: The Good Lord Giveth, and he taketh away. The 'Taketh away' bit is, of course, the injuries to Havertz, then Tzolis, then Konsa too, who I haven't mentioned this [...]
We had ourselves some Arsenal goalscorers again last night and, just as I'd hoped for, Big Vik was once again in amongst it. It was another proper tap-in poachers goal, but at this point, I don't think we want to look any kind of gift horse in the mouth, because he's going to be our [...]
I would call myself an occasional 'follower' of the Arsenal Women. I want them to do well; I'll switch on the games if they are on TV, and I hope they can get it together and win trophies. It is The Arsenal, after all. But I wouldn't profess to call myself an expert on The [...]
Well it sounds like Kai Havertz is going to be out for three to four weeks with his hamstring injury, if some of the noises from the socials are to be believed. If that has been confirmed by the club, if it is three weeks, say, then we're looking at him being back by 24th [...]
England bagged a win away at the Czech Republic yesterday, with Bukayo Saka and Myles Lewis-Skelly in the starting lineup, and having obviously not bothered to watch the game, I was hoping to see that Bukayo had a decent performance. I've spoken already about how he's been doing ok this season, bagged some goals, but [...]
Let's start with an editorial correction from yesterday, shall we? I obviously didn't watch the game; I looked on FOTMOB at who played, for some reason missed that MLS got 70 minutes, and apparently did okay, according to some people in the comments. Hey ho - like I said, I clearly didn't watch it, so [...]
Obviously I didn't bother watching the England v Spain game last night, and instead watched a movie with Zachary Levi and Liam Neeson called 'The Fix'. It wasn't bad, actually, since you asked. But whilst it was downloading to my Sky box, I did watch about two minutes of the game that coincided with Harry [...]
Morning, boys and girls, hope you're all well. Yesterday I was waxing lyrical about Mikel Arteta's new deal, and in that blog I talked about how we need to start looking at Martin Odegaard and Declan Rice next. Well, wouldn't you just know it, but Tuesday and yesterday's news started emerging about just that. Declan [...]
