Morning folks and welcome to Thursday. It's another glorious day in London today, so I'm bringing my work stuff into the garden and do a proper old school "shall we take our workbooks outside, kids" situation for my working day. Screw it, life is too short. I wonder if that's how Mudryk is feeling today. [...]
I usually write my ramblings first thing in the morning so I can be done by the time my working day starts at 9am. So releasing the fixtures at 9am today is a real inconvenience for somebody like me, I gotta be honest with ya. Still, at least it gives me the opportunity to be [...]
It's funny, you know, because whilst lots of people have been hot on Nico Williams, that has never really permeated the football side of my brain. So when Ornstein drops a confirmation that Williams wants Barcelona and that Barca are sorting out the details on a deal, I say "absolutely fine by me". I think [...]
Yesterday I saw - and got my thoughts in too - some stuff online about Zinchenko being a target for AC Milan. And it occurred to me that with all of this chatter about incoming strikers, I haven't really thought about exits that will happen this summer for The Arsenal. We've already sent Neto back, [...]
That pointless tournament in America kicked off last night and did so with the kind of 'bang' I think most of us were hoping for: A boring 0-0 draw. I didn't watch it, but Sky Sports thrust it into my eye-line on their website this morning with a match review, whose highlights included "Messi hit [...]
What's good about the world we live in these days when it comes to football rumours, is that even the rumours of rumours get reported on. Like last night, where a chap on 'The other platform' called 'HandOfArsenal' took to the platform to tell us all that there would be an article coming out in Marca [...]
Normally when I whack Sky Sports News on in the kitchen at this time of the year, there's a fair bit of rotation on what the presenters are talking about, in terms of the different teams. But yesterday when I flicked it on after a long day of work, Sky were going fairly heavy on [...]
First thigns first, how about that Mikel Merino bagging himself another goal in what sounds like an absolutely mental international game last night, eh? I saw the goal as it did the rounds on social media last night and it was a well worked piece and a very fine finish from our Spaniard. For somebody [...]
Today I thought I'd take a bit of time to pay homage to our former (almost) Scottish left back Kieran Tierney, who is returning to his homeland and Celtic in the summer, following almost six year's at the club, having signed in September 2019. It's his birthday today too. So happy birthday to KT. You've [...]
Wednesday mornings, eh? Not quite the weekend, far enough away from last weekend to keep any lingering happy thoughts away, instead if you're a desk jockey like me you face a full day of work knowing that the weekend still lies a little too far beyond touching distance. I'm sure that's why they invented midweek [...]
