Morning folks and welcome to match day Wednesday. We've got the last of our five home games today and it's the final home game of this infernal Champions League Group stage, for which we welcome Croatian side Dynamo Zagreb to The Emirates. Standing on 13 points so far, it's an opportunity for us to put [...]

Happy Champions League match day folks! I'm super excited for this one. Do you know why? Because I'm going tonight AND I used to play in defence for my Uni team, so I might get a place on the bench!! After all, with the amount of defenders we seemingly have on the treatment table right [...]

Eight goals in around 80 hours between Saturday and Tuesday has a Gooner like me rather excited right now. I seem to have eschewed my normal glass half empty mantra, which has been replaced with a really positive vibe about The Arsenal looking ahead to this weekend's game against West Ham. Of course, the feelings could be [...]

Arsenal blitz through Sporting to set a marker in Europe

Well now, wasn't that a lot more fun last night than we expected, eh? I don't think there are any Arsenal fans that thought that Mikel Arteta and his charges were going to head over to Portugal, absolutely blitz an unbeaten team with a 100% domestic win record this season, with one of the clubs [...]

Familiarity and change about Sporting versus Arsenal tonight

So we're back in Champions League action this evening and it's the Portuguese champions we are up against in Lisbon tonight, in a game that sees a repeat of the March 2023 Europa League Round of 16 we played in March 2023. That game finished 2-2 and at the time I think most of us [...]

How does Arteta solve the right back rotation connundrum?

There's no rest for the wicked, as the Arsenal squad - and a fair few fans - make their way to Lisbon today ahead of our Champions League showdown against Sporting. I suspect we'll get an Arteta press conference towards the end of the working day today and we'll get a bit of an update [...]

A tale of two penalties in Milan

There's really no other place to start than the deciding two factors in yesterday's 1-0 defeat to the Italian Champions Inter. At one end of the pitch Mikel Merino is punched in the head from Jan Sommer, at the other end of the pitch a ball flicks up on to his arm and the - [...]

Job done for The Arsenal. But scratch beneath the surface…

By |2024-10-23T09:07:55+01:00October 23rd, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Attack, Champions League, gooners, Gunners, Match Review, Mikel Arteta|0 Comments

If the hope was that last night's game was supposed to inject a little bit more swagger in to the Arsenal collective psyche last night, both for the fans as much as the players and coaching staff, I think it is fair to say that all didn't go exactly to plan. Ultimately, we got the [...]
