That, eventually, was a jolly nice evening in the end. Don’t get me wrong, we had some perceived wobbles at times and particularly in the first half of yesterday’s ‘scoreline’ hammering of Monaco, we looked like that might be one of those “we’re going to regret missing our chances aren’t we?” kind of games. But [...]
Happy Champions League match day folks! I'm super excited for this one. Do you know why? Because I'm going tonight AND I used to play in defence for my Uni team, so I might get a place on the bench!! After all, with the amount of defenders we seemingly have on the treatment table right [...]
Went with the brother and Nephew yesterday to the London Stadium to see West Ham play Wolves. The wee man has only ever been once before and so despite the lack of quality on display at The London Stadium (as well as a ball ache of a place to get out of and home), it's [...]
I wasn't able to watch the game yesterday, as I was at a Christmas get together with the family (we're off over Christmas so this was a bit of a non-negotiable from The Management's family), but I've seen the goals and a few of the Arsenal chances, so today's musings will be very much 'vibes' [...]
I said it in the aftermath of Friday's press conferences, that Fulham feels a little more difficult than when we looked at this run of games pre-international break, but I feel it even more this morning: This is going to be hard today. Fulham are decent at home. Four wins, one draw and two defeats [...]
When Mikel Arteta started busting out "best at everything" lines in yesterday's press conference, it immediately invoked Stormzy's 'Shut Up' song and I had to have a little chuckle. I think from the transcript I read from the official site yesterday, there must have been at least half of the questions related to set pieces. [...]
BIG game today. Very big game. I touched on it yesterday about how the pundits are pretty much all siding with us and that 'Jones Knows' chat on Sky even went for a 4-1 thrashing. Lawrenson has gone 2-1 Arsenal Sutton has gone for a 3-1 to us. We should beat them. We have a better [...]
I tell you what, this Arsenal team is cooking at the moment, isn't it? I mean yes, there was a moment in the first half when it went to 4-2 that I had PTSD from my trip up to Newcastle all those year's ago to watch the 4-4 draw, but as I said on the [...]
Yesterday I did a bit of a look at West Ham, but with Arteta and Lopetegui having their press conferences yesterday, we have a little more detail and I think I'll obviously focus a little more on us today. But before that, the West Ham team news, which Lopetegui talked about alongside handing our a [...]
In what is becoming a bit of a habit for me at the moment, I thought I'd go an check out the situation on some of the West Ham forums this morning, to get a bit of a vibe check on the opposition fans in the run up to our game against them. Unlike in [...]
