Rotation the aim for Brentford today – but mindset has to remain strong

Morning campers, how we all doing? Weird one, this one today, innit? I mean, we have ourselves a match day, we have ourselves an Arsenal home game and we have ourselves a pressing need to probably at least win four of our last seven to be assured of the second spot in the Premier League. [...]

Quick look at Brentford – long ball and high press from the Bees?

It looks like it's shaping up to be a glorious few days of weather here in London over the next couple of days, but will the football tomorrow evening match that, given what we saw on Tuesday and the fact we have our second leg of the Quarter Final of the Champions League against Real [...]

Should Arsenal take a punt on Mbuemo?

I’m not going to bother getting in to the stupid League Cup ball nonsense this morning. It’s simply another way to bash Mikel Arteta for answering a simple question. Meh. What I am going to get in to, is the fact that we are almost a third of the way through this January window and [...]

Nwaneri slips in to an Arsenal team building momentum

Well now, that was much better than the Ipswich game, eh? In fairness, there is of course a lot to do with game state with all matches and the one on 27th at home was against a team absolutely battered in their previous match and therefore naturally not wanting to create a spiral of doom [...]

Kai saves Ramsdale’s blushes as Arsenal go top

In the end, the job was done, three points were secured and The Arsenal finished the evening top of the table, with the ability to watch the Liverpool v City game without thinking that we'd fluffed our chances this weekend. But it could have been very different indeed, had Kai Havertz not stepped in to [...]

Compact Brentford will make this more difficult for Arsenal to break down

Right then, it's match day, so let's see what we're up against with today's evening opponents Brentford, eh? Firstly, their team news, which sees the Beeds facing quite a lot of missing players due to injury, particularly at the back, where Rico Henry, Ben Mee, Aaron Hickey and Ethan Pinnock all remain out for this [...]

Arteta’s psychology to fuel Brentford game

In classic Chris style, yesterday I predicted that we wouldn't get Arteta's press conference until today, so of course Arteta went in front of the press yesterday to talk about the upcoming showdown against Brentford tomorrow in the early evening. If you ever see me at the races, bet on the horses I'm not picking! [...]

An Arsenal fan determined to live in the moment

Happy Wednesday folks - still feeling pretty good about The Arsenal right now? I know I am. The goal difference, the defensive solidity, the form of players like Odegaard, Saka, Rice, Jorginho, etc, is all helping us to all start to feel a little more excited as we reach the real crunch point in the [...]

How does Arteta approach tomorrow night against Brentford in the cup?

What a way to start off a day - with bloody COVID. Well, at least Arsenal are away this weekend and so there is at least that up side that I'm not going to miss going to a game this weekend. It's scuppers a few socialising plans I have but such is life. I move [...]

Shrewd Arsenal making Raya and Patino moves

I was pretty confused when I first heard about the Raya links. I couldn't understand why we were dropping close to £30million on a guy who will not start the season and may not be able to break through if Ramsdale has a stormer this season. And why were KSE/the Arsenal board willing to drop [...]
