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, [...]
Morning Gooners, we all good? I have to admit, I was kind of sad that I didn't watch the batshit-mental football match last night that was Man United 4 - 4 Bournemouth. Looks like a Christmas hum-dinger of a game and one in which I saw Jamie Carragher describe it as "the best of the [...]
After the final results from yesterday's 2pm kick offs was confirmed, I had a quick check in to see what the 'vibes' were like and to my surprise, there was a lot of doom and gloom going on amongst some corners of The Arsenal fanbase. I saw people saying it's City's title, that they'd win [...]
It's Friday, it's press conference day and with Mikel Arteta having bedded back in some of our strikers in midweek's Champions League win, I'm interested to see in what kind of mood he might be today. Hopefully it is a jovial one, because the frustration and annoyance of last Saturday's defeat has been countered with [...]
Well that went just about as perfect as I'd imagine Mikel Arteta could have hoped for last night. Get the win to get back on the winning wagon - tick. Rotate the team to rest up some of those important legs - tick. Give minutes to those who might be a little 'cold' in terms [...]
Feels like there's a couple of ways that Mikel Arteta can look at tonight's game: Get the points and automatic qualification lined up so we can properly rest players for the final two matches Rotated heavily to preserve some players for Wolves and Everton in the league, which as I mentioned yesterday, has a full week [...]
Before we talk The Arsenal and look ahead to the game tomorrow night in Belgium, let's spend a minute or two talking about the Mo Salah situation, eh? Because as Arsenal fans, we've seen this stuff play out a couple of times and we know how it goes: Big Name ageing player on big money [...]
That was one of those ‘on paper’ routine nights, wasn’t it? Arsenal had a job to do. They needed to avoid a banana skin. They needed to de-risk the whole evening. They needed to make this a perfunctory three points. Brentford are not a team to be trifled with. Yes, they have a pretty shoddy [...]
