Bloody heck it's freezing today. Frost on the cars, family jewels heading north, it's one of those days you want to be on holiday with a log fire and nothing but which crappy 80s movie to watch next. Certainly not on a tube heading in to London for a shift at 7am. Plus, I don't [...]
Victories for Liverpool, City and Chelski yesterday mean that today's game against Bournemouth isn't one that we can really afford to be buggering up this afternoon. Yes, it was hilarious to see Spurs' dreams of going the season unbeaten go down the khazi, but when you look at the table this morning and see that [...]
Ok folks, we clearly have a wee bit of an issue now, because for something like the fourth game in a row I saw an Arsenal side who didn't really click at all. And it's starting to worry me. Middlesbrough at home, Sunderland away for the most part (until we turned the after burners on [...]
As expected, Arsène addressed the media ahead of this weekend on Thursday rather than Friday, with the team travelling oop norf today at some stage. No doubt Alexis will be with them, having told Le Boss that he's ok via text. Ahh texting, remember that? The thing that we all used to do before Whatsapp, [...]
In classic Arsène and Arsenal style, I predicted a press conference yesterday, which inevitably led to there being none whatsoever. I have a history of shoddy predictions when it comes to Arsenal, which is why I don't bother making them on the blog usually, especially when it comes to games. I don't need that kind [...]
Did a bit of scouting on our opponents for Sunday last night. Well, I say 'scouting', but actually I just sat on the sofa, ate fried chicken, whilst Burnley beat Watford. What I learnt was: Burnley have a decent dead ball taker in Steven Defour They like a headed goal Insightful stuff, I know, and [...]
It may have been news that we were already aware of, but yesterday came the confirmation that Abou Diaby was finally being released from his contract at Arsenal, and is now in the process of finding a new club. Rumours are abound that he's on the verge of signing for FC Dallas in the MLS and [...]
Plenty to talk about today, as Arsene had his pre-match presser and had lots to say on a wide range of topics. He was asked about doing transfer business early and gave the standard sort of non-committal answer about not doing early transfer business, but doing the right transfer business, which would surely be all [...]
Morning you lot, I hope you're enjoying your Wednesday and are just happy that we're slowly but surely making our way through this working week. All's still quiet on the Western front, which means no signings announced, not even a 17-year-old who the club has confirmed has had a medical. I mean what's going on [...]
