Morning fellow Gooners. It's been a bank holiday week in the UK which means the week is one day less. So why the frig does it feel like I've already done a day longer than normal? Might have something to do with the fact I'm offski to Portugal tomorrow evening but still, this n'half dragging [...]
With all of the hoo-ha of the start of the Premier League I think most of us had forgotten the fact English clubs can't become embroiled in an end of August transfer scrap on Friday. It's been refreshing to know that there won't be any destabilising of players as the season starts. Well, that is [...]
It's funny how in football harmony can do quickly turn into discord. Just look at the situation at Old Trafford right now. A pretty stinging defeat to the horrible lot from the other part of north London and what do you know? Jose is at odds with everyone again. Having only recently signed a new [...]
Ultimately what we wanted yesterday was an Arsenal win and so when Danny Welbeck calmly swivelled and rifled home the third goal in injury time, the overriding emotion was obviously relief from most of the stadium and also for me. I think if I was to choose a word to reflect the game yesterday though, [...]
Happy Saturday one and all, hope you're having a good one, especially since the season can now officially start today after a couple of engine stalls. Of course the engine could still fall apart on us today and anybody expecting West Ham to be a nice easy ride should probably have a think about that [...]
Having talked quite a bit yesterday on our Wednesday night 'A Little Bit Arsenal' show about how Emery isn't afraid to hook players regardless of their status in the squad, this morning I find myself waking up thinking about the substitutions he's making at the moment, wondering whether it will remain that way all season. [...]
Two days after the defensive shambles that was Stamford Bridge and still the result is stinging a bit, but after a day of boozing for the parents Ruby wedding anniversary, plus reading the views of the players and other Arsenal fans, in pleased that we all seem a little more chilled about a second defeat [...]
I feel weird writing about Arsenal this morning. Weird because I don't know exactly how I feel. Often I will feel happiness, elation, anger, sadness, frustration, but today I feel a little bit of everything. And that's weird. Ultimately I guess the emotion that overrides all is sadness because we once again lost at Stamford [...]
Saturday is football and football is Saturday. I love it when The Arsenal play on a Saturday (even if the actual kick off time is rubbish). It feels right and proper. And what with this being the first Saturday of the season it feels extra exciting. I have that nervous butterflies in the stomach feeling [...]
Morning all. Happy Tuesday unto thee. Hopefully you're feeling grand and the usual bitter taste after a weekend defeat doesn't feel as lingering in your mouth as it usually does for me. I'm all for the idea of the season taking a reboot after next weekend, you see, because with a new formation, new style [...]
