Well, that was a bloody load of fun, wasn’t it? Pre game I was nervous. I’ll hold my hands up to that. I didn’t know what kind of Chelsea we’d be up against. Pochettino said beforehand Palmer would be missing, that Gusto wouldn’t be there and that Chilwell wasn’t fit. I’ve heard that story before. [...]

Another one of the current crop tied down, as Arsenal announced that Takehiro Tomiyasu has extended his stay with the club by signing a new deal. And it was a lovely video that the club posted to announce it too: Dedication. Determination. Tomiyasu ✍️ pic.twitter.com/2Q6kGZWNza — Arsenal (@Arsenal) March 20, 2024 We all love Tomi, [...]

Ben White signs a new deal, but is shafted by England and Southgate

Morning folks, hope we all good this Friday? With no Arsenal this weekend on account of the FA Cup matches taking place (which will push our game against Chelsea in to April as part of our mega fixture congestion), you'd think there would be little to talk about, but you'd be wrong. Step forward the [...]

New contracts and more competition for the Arsenal squad

The main news that I'm hearing about this morning is that Takehiro Tomiyasu has agreed a new deal with The Arsenal, as we move to tie down more of those trusted players that Arteta likes in his squad, per various sources yesterday. For me I think this is the right thing to do. He's a [...]

Saka hope and Ben White appreciation

Morning Gooners, how we all doing on this Saturday morn? How optimistic are you that we might see Bukayo Saka on the pitch tomorrow, eh? A bit more optimistic than a couple of days ago I'll bet. That's because we've started to hear some whisperings that he might be ok from Sunday, with even Mikel [...]

Controlled Arsenal batter Bournemouth

For me personally yesterday was almost the most perfect sporting day I could have hoped for. First and foremost, which will take up the bulk of today's blog for obvious reasons, was the 4-0 away win over Bournemouth that Arsenal delivered to us on that most precious of things: A Saturday 3pm kick off. But [...]

Does Zinchenko’s absence force tactical changes for Forest at home in three weeks?

Morning Gooners, how we all doing? Been away from the blog for the last two days on account of a case of food poisoning that I got from a restaurant in London Waterloo on Saturday night. Wiped me out for two days but ready and rocking after what it feels like some mammoth sleeps and [...]

Arsenal and Arteta get the tactics and mentality wrong against Brighton

There are some days where I really just don't feel like writing about football or, specifically, about The Arsenal. Today my friends, is one of those days, for sure. I even fired up my laptop this morning and instead of logging on to the site and starting to type away, I started to go through [...]

Arsenal do their job against Leeds – nine to go

Ahh man am I hungover. I got to Highbury & Islington tube station at around 12.35 - about an hour earlier than I normally do - so I could watch the City versus Liverpool game. What a waste of time that was. I hope the Scousers are that rubbish when they play us, although I [...]

Time to ask some Tomiyasu questions?

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 [...]
