I don't normally lead on Arsenal Women stuff, because I don't follow it massively closely and I am by no means an expert, so I just tend to check in and give them a mention when good things happen. So for them to beat Bayern Munich at the Emirates last night (and the first goal [...]
I don't know about you guys, but when I saw that Thomas Partey was an unused substitute in the game against Angola yesterday evening, my initial thought was of relief. After all, if he's made the bench, then he must be available to be used, right? I mean, otherwise if he isn't fit to play [...]
Bukayo Saka really is something else, eh? The kid has the world at his feet at such a young age and although I only checked in on the game yesterday as I was cooking, I saw a few bits - like that wonderful goal - that was enough to peak my interest and give other [...]
This is the worst part of the international break. It really is - as Arseblog puts it - the 'Interlull'. Eng-ger-land might have played yesterday, Harry Kane might have got himself another individual accolade in a team sport (well done Harry, hope you keep up your record in cup competitions too), but frankly I couldn't give [...]
I was going to talk about some of the players who are on international duty, how I am praying for their safe return, having a little look at how far they are travelling over the next few days and then working out who I thought might be the one we need to keep a closest [...]
Happy Wednesday folks. How we all doing? A bit better than poor ol' Tomiyasu, who the club confirmed yesterday had undergone surgery on his knee and he will be out for the season. Such a shame. Such a big blow to such a good player, but sadly we're now in to the territory where we [...]
Howdy folks and welcome to Tuesday. It's funny because last night when we were chatting on the Same Old Arsenal podcast about the different stages of emotions we go through in the week leading up to a game. This was in reference to the Palace game and I admitted that when I do my musings [...]
After the three points were confirmed against Fulham last weekend, I gave a little fist pump in the air in my kitchen to myself. That felt like a big win. I immediately started thinking about this weekend. "If we can beat Palace and Leeds, then we'll be in a really good position to go for [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Wednesday. Having to go old school on the blog today, because the desktop version of the site seems to have gone down, so until that is up and running, I’m penning some thoughts from the iPhone, so please excuse the inevitable typos and predictive text change words in to other [...]
Arsenal released the words from Mikel Arteta for his press conference yesterday, which actually took place after the Sporting Lisbon game, so I guess all the journos were told it was under embargo until yesterday because a lot of the messaging didn't really come out about the game until the afternoon yesterday. So I guess [...]
