Toney’s tale doesn’t involve The Arsenal

Happy Monday folks. We all good? I had a lovely weekend after the football and yesterday spent the day in the sun with the family watching bits and pieces of the Brentford/Palace game, then the Chelsea/City game. No Ivan Toney for Brentford and Thomas Frank afterwards suggested it was because his head wasn't right because [...]

Dress rehearsal for Arsenal today against Lyon

The headline pretty much says it all about today's Emirates Cup Friendly against Lyon, as Arsenal play their final pre season game, before we face off against Neto-less Wolves next weekend (had a word or two about that yesterday). This one will be one that I'm expecting Arteta to be taking the most serious of [...]

Some big money moves at other clubs – and I’m glad we’re not sniffing a them

Happy Saturday folks - how we all doing? I'm going to start with something that I usually try to avoid - talking about The Scum - but it's only because there's little else going on and some of their fans will be getting a bit excited that they're spending £654million on Dominic Solanke from Bournemouth. [...]

What to do about Fabio Vieira?

Happy Friday peeps, how we all doing? At this point in time I really think there's nothing else I can add on the Merino stuff until he's actually in through the revolving doors at London Colney, so despite there being another 'angle' on his potential arrival (not in the Sociedad squad for a friendly yesterday), [...]

Impressive Arsenal are looking ready for the big kick off

I watched the game at The Emirates from the comfort of my own home yesterday and it was the first one I’ve been able to catch live this pre season, so I will admit to quite a degree of excitement ahead of the match against Leverkusen yesterday evening. It was the return of Granit for [...]

Looking at Leverkusen; but is anyone looking at Nketiah?

It's Bayker Leverkusen tonight for The Arsenal in a game that feels like the first 'proper' friendly match this summer, if that makes sense? What I mean by that is that Arsenal are back on home soil, it's close enough to the new season that the team should be getting back to fitness, we have [...]

Arsenal’s strong transfer bargaining position is a welcome sight

Happy Tuesday campers, we all good? Tomorrow the team line up against Leverkusen in our penultimate friendly before the season kicks off properly and it'll be the return of Xhaka who I'm sure will get a good reception. I suspect Arteta might do something today, maybe not a press conference (or maybe he will?) but [...]

The Smith ends his Arsenal era, with Eddie potentially next out

We knew the day would come, we've been speaking about it for a while, but yesterday it was confirmed that Emile Smith Rowe, ESR, 'The Smith', left Arsenal signed for Fulham on a permanent transfer. I don't think I've seen such a universal sadness from Arsenal fans for a player who had essentially become a [...]
