Yesterday the protracted saga of Alexis Sanchez leaving the Arsenal - which let's not forget has gone on for essentially a year since it became clear he wasn't interested in signing a new deal - was concluded and I for one am glad that the 'saga' in itself is over. And in return Arsenal went [...]

Sven and Ivan share an iPod, whilst Alexis’ exit means the team must flourish

It's the start of a new working week for me, but by the looks of things Ivan and Sven Mislintat got theirs going a day early, having been snapped by Bild in Germany picking up some luggage from a car from what was supposed to be Aubameyang's silver ride; I'm not sure whether it's an [...]

The majesty of Özil putting Palace to the sword

If you're going to describe the perfect start to a football match then you'd pretty much just re-run the opening 30 minutes of yesterday's win against Crystal Palace. It was goals, goals, goals. And I loved it. The nerves were there for all to see pre match and as I sunk a few pints round [...]

Palace preview: High tempo, slick passing and one final Alexis game?

Happy match day goners. But will it be come 5pm? Will we have something to smile about or will it be more exasperation caused by yet another display in which the selected XI in red shirts toil over their goalscoring attempts as Crystal Palace aim to be tough to break down and hit us quick [...]

The age of Theo is gone, will Aubameyang be next?

Here endeth 'The Age of Theo' and with it, one of the last surviving players to go into the social media proclaimed 'Banter Era' and come out the other side into 'The Declining Era', where we now find ourselves. His move to Everton was ratified and made official yesterday with the usual horrific 'new signing [...]

The agent ‘noise’ phase; Arsenal gambling on Wilshere’s loyalty

We've all been watching this game enough by now. We've all seen this before a few times and therefore we all know at what stage we're at in the process. The manager's have done their little bit of talking. The club's have done their bit of talking. No fees have been agreed yet, so we [...]

Arsène’s last roll of the dice – transfers

The tedium of the Alexis saga appears to be moving into its final phases and having been entwined emotionally to it for the best part of 12 months, Arsenal fans will soon get the relief of it finally being over and by god, I'll be glad when it does happen. I won't be glad when [...]

Bournemouth review: Pull the trigger somebody. Anybody.

What more can I say this morning that I haven't already said about this Arsenal team? How many times can I talk about the same frailties, the same mistakes, the same lack of ideas, the same lack of drive? There is literally no other way to try to spin a story out of this repetitive [...]

Morning folks - everyone feeling good? Everyone excited for another match day? Or, are you like me, which is that every time a match day comes around you get that dragging sensation in your stomach? It's the one where you can't quite work out whether you feel a bit sick, or you're hungry, or you [...]
