Another day, another 'cup final' for The Arsenal and I have to tell you, they all seem to get more intense with each passing week. I thought Wolves was bad. Then I thought Chelsea was worse. The NLD was horrible in the build up, so how do I feel EVEN MORE nervous now than I did [...]
Happy Friday from a slightly overcast Munich. Out here for a few days with The Management doing a bit of bank holiday weekend away, whilst keeping my German up to speed, if I see Harry Kane I'll apologise for not bringing any crayons for him. I bet they just don't taste as good out here [...]
On Tuesday there were stories about Jorginho and his new deal, yesterday we had some noises about the potential of Arsenal listening to offers for Gabriel Jesus. You can tell we're rapidly approaching transfer silly season, can't you? I have my own thoughts on this, as you'd expect, but as with all of these things [...]
Morning folks, we all good? Have you been basking in the delights of a North London Derby victory still? I certainly have. Yesterday wasn't exactly my most productive work day, I have to admit, as I intermittently found myself getting on to social media to watch the occasional short video of Spurs fans filming their [...]
Football does everything to you. At halftime I went up to our bedroom where The Management was packing away some clothes and I said "that was bloody brilliant". I was beaming from ear-to-ear and she sagely said to me "remember, it's only half time, and we were at Newcastle on that fateful day". I nodded, [...]
Here we are boys and girls. This is it. The worst and single most terrifying game of the Premier League season if you're an Arsenal fan. I hate this fixture so much. I was listening to a podcast yesterday on my run where one of the guests said the one at our home ground is [...]
The countdown commences and yesterday it was the opportunity for both managers to take to their respective press rooms to respond to questions from the press. As usual Arteta didn't really give up much on the team news and approach, but you wouldn't really ecpect him to because: He hasn't done that all season anyway. [...]
Well I don't think any of us really expected City to drop any points yesterday, did they? This isn't the same Brighton as last season but as a well as that, Brighton are very much in 'on the beach' mode on 44 points and with little chance of getting in to the European spots, so [...]
Well, that was a bloody load of fun, wasn’t it? Pre game I was nervous. I’ll hold my hands up to that. I didn’t know what kind of Chelsea we’d be up against. Pochettino said beforehand Palmer would be missing, that Gusto wouldn’t be there and that Chilwell wasn’t fit. I’ve heard that story before. [...]
It's another match day today and another opportunity for me to get too worried and stressed ahead of yet another 'cup final' for The Arsenal, as we take on Chelsea at the Emirates in what I believe, is going to be a very tough game. These always are. Last season's felt relatively comfortable, but that's [...]
