The weekend is here and much like the last time we played  in the Premier league, it's a Saturday in which our involvement is nil, but unlike last time, our rivals play today and will in all likelihood see us slip behind them come the end of the evening. With the Spuds sure to beat [...]

Pressure? What pressure? THEY’VE got all the pressure, not us guv

Welcome to the weekend, which means the big game is just a day away and the two respective managers have had their press conferences, Arsene at London Colney and Claudio Ranieri at Aylestone and perhaps unsurprisingly, both have sugested that it is the opponent they face this weekend that is under more pressure. Ranieri is a likeable [...]

There's no place better to start today than with the u-turn by Arsenal yesterday evening on the surcharge for ticket prices, announcing that they would not, on this occasion, enforce the charge for the Barcelona game. Funnily enough, I was actually halfway through a podcast talking about the issues of the surcharge and how it felt [...]

So, it has been confirmed that we will be top of the league come New Year's Day, after the two City's - Leicester and Manchester - failed to score and ended with a 0-0 stalemate. It's the best possible result that we could have hoped for, in truth, because a Moneychester win would have put [...]

A title race for all and an Alexis made from stronger stuff

Good old Arsène and his early press conferences. It gives me something to talk about on a Friday, you see, so I'm always happy when it happens. Of course, Saturday may still be a quiet day, but that's none of my concern first thing on a Friday morning, I can tell thee! Concerns. Do we [...]

The nerves have set in, but team unity brings hope ahead of the North London Derby

I've got to be honest and tell you that the nerves have already started for tomorrow's North London Derby. It always starts at least two days before the actual game and by the time I reach the day before I'm already thinking about the potential outcomes, both positively and negatively. I make myself more nervous [...]

Hello again my fellow Arsenal friends. I hope this Saturday finds you well? Are you excited for today's game? I know I am. I'm excited because Arsenal currently have their tails up and performances have been very good both defensively and offensively of late. We'll need to have another very high level of intensity and [...]

Theo replicating club for country, whilst Johnny-come-lately has the press fawning

I Actually managed to sit through a whole 90 minutes of an England game last night, made all the more impressive by the fact that it was a dead rubber and only one Arsenal player was starting: Theo. Thankfully it was worth tuning in, just so that Theo could show Harry Kane what clinical finishing [...]

A blitzkreig of United, a controlled second half and a majestic Arsenal

Arsène Wenger has built has various Arsenal teams with key attributes that include technical quality, quick passing and movement and a precision in their play that - when it works - is breathtaking and what football should be all about. For the first 20 minutes of yesterday's game that is exactly what we were treated [...]
