Well now, that was more like it, eh? Arsenal’s final pre season friendly of this summer ended with a pretty emphatic 3-0 win against a Champions League Athletic Bilbao, with boxes ticked all over the shop, including: Big Gabby returning to start Calafiori on the pitch for valuable minutes Timber shaking off his knock and [...]
It’s the final friendly of the 2025 pre season today and it’s The Emirates Cup for Arteta and his lads. I have to say I preferred the old Emirates Cup format of two matches per day and played over the Saturday and Sunday, but they keep it to one these days and there’s probably a [...]
So we’re on the move with Big Vik it seems, as yesterday both Ornstein and Romano confirmed that the deal was fully agreed and the player could travel to London for his medical. That will likely happen today, then I suspect - all being well - he’ll do his pictures and other video work, interviews, [...]
Greetings from Porto! This week I’ve been road tripping through Portugal and today we’re off to the Douro valley for loads of wine and hopefully sunshine, but I wanted to check in because as we all know, yesterday it appears that there were market movements for Brentford’s captain Christian Norgaard. I wrote it on social [...]
Only one place to start today, which is with The Arsenal Women, who did what I think most of us would agree was the unthinkable, by sinking Barcelona Femini. That Barca team tend to down anyone they come across, so to completely shut them out and then see the final stages over the line after [...]
It looks like it's shaping up to be a glorious few days of weather here in London over the next couple of days, but will the football tomorrow evening match that, given what we saw on Tuesday and the fact we have our second leg of the Quarter Final of the Champions League against Real [...]
Morning folks and may I say happy Friday to you and yours. It's Wolves away this weekend and Arteta will have a few words to say about them today at some stage, so I'll do a bit of that today to, but before then some other news that crept out in to the ether yesterday [...]
I mentioned it yesterday, I’ve kind of bitched about it a couple of times since the draw was made, but for yet another year we kick off with what is a really tough home game to Man United, in amongst a really tough run of fixtures this January, all whilst missing a few of our [...]
It’s FA Cup weekend this weekend and whilst most of our rivals have basically been given free reign to rotate and rest key players by playing teams further down the football pyramid, the footballing gods saw fit to once again do us a dirty by having to come up against relatively strong opposition in the [...]
I’m not going to bother getting in to the stupid League Cup ball nonsense this morning. It’s simply another way to bash Mikel Arteta for answering a simple question. Meh. What I am going to get in to, is the fact that we are almost a third of the way through this January window and [...]
