With the international break now upon us, it feels like as Arsenal fans we really need to string out as much of the good vibes from the City win on Sunday as possible. That's certainly what I did and I've been watching videos, reading blogs and opinions from journalists and fans, plus listening to podcasts [...]

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 [...]

Does the England Saka announcement give us cause for optimism?

By |2023-10-06T07:36:53+01:00October 6th, 2023|analysis, Arsenal, Arsenal FC, gooners, Gunners, injuries, Mikel Arteta, premier league|0 Comments

It's press conference day today and Mikel Arteta will take to the press room at London Colney to give an update on where we are at with our injury problems ahead of the big game against Oil-Funded-Nation-State FC on Sunday, with all eyes and ears being very firmly fixed on the availability of Bukayo Saka [...]

Sweating on Bukayo for this weekend

Losing isn't fun and I'm still smarting a bit from that needless defeat to Lens last night. However, I wonder how PSG fans are feeling this morning, having seen their side battered (scoreline-wise) against Newcastle at St James' last night. I was thinking about that result and how much of a big thing for Newcastle [...]

Mistakes in both penalty boxes cost Arsenal at Lens

Morning folks. Hmm. That was a...frustrating....evening, methinks. In the immediate aftermath when I was annoyed that we'd lost to an RC Lens side that brought a decent level of press and a fanbase who were obviously super 'up for it' as a night in the Champions League that they hadn't had for 21 years (I [...]

Lens the unknown quantity – Arsenal need to be careful

Morning Gooners - back on a match day and looking forward to our first away day in the Champions League for many a year. For the team and players it is just as well that the trip is shorter in distance to going to Newcastle, because the bad weather around the Luton area - where [...]

Controlled Arsenal batter Bournemouth

By |2023-10-01T09:07:35+01:00October 1st, 2023|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Attack, gooners, Gunners, Match Review, Mikel Arteta, premier league|0 Comments

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 [...]

Frustration felt as Arsenal slip up against Tottenham

As I said on last night's Same Old Arsenal podcast, the one word that keeps ringing through my head both yesterday and this morning: Frustration. I'm frustrated at the performance. I'm frustrated at the injuries. I'm frustrated at the silly concession of our goals. I'm frustrated at the media narrative about how awesome this Postecoglou [...]

Arsenal roll back the years in routine Champions League opener

Well that was like rolling back the years last night, wasn't it? What I mean by that is that it was Arsenal back in the Champions League, the music blaring, the light show, but also, the kind of performance we used to routinely take for granted. That felt like the kind of game that we [...]

Arsenal players getting recognised is a nice and new feeling

Happy Thursday Gooners - we holding up ok? I say that because, let's face it, this is just about the worst time in an international break; we're now a solid four days from the brilliant late United winner, the content that we have been gorging ourselves on is starting to run out, with the upcoming [...]
