If you believe everything you read on line, you'd be forgiven for getting a little antsy that the supposed new interest in Eze from Chelsea could scupper any potential deal that The Arsenal do. Personally, I'm not minded to put too much credence in to it at this stage, because Eze would be batshit mental [...]
Had a fair bit of work stuff and other bits going on yesterday, so didn't find the time to compose some thoughts in the wake of the rapidly evolving Madueke story, so shall we have a chat today about it? Firstly, I think it's difficult for me to row back from my original thoughts and [...]
Yesterday was a day at home doing lots of jobs and chores, so unusually for me, I got plenty of time to be scrolling through my social media feeds for the latest Arsenal-related transfer news. I picked a bad day to do it. That's because all the talk yesterday was on Arsenal reaching personal terms [...]
Now I'm not going to claim a victory after yesterday insisting that 'ACTION' needed to happen from yesterday, but less than 12 hours after I'd written my thinkings yesterday on the need for new signings, a shiny new footballer rocked up at The Emirates. Maybe I need to use this power again soon? Of course [...]
I didn't really touch too much on comments in the wake of the United game about Bukayo Saka, made by Arteta, when asked about him. But I suspect just to re-iterate the situation he'll definitely be asked about the forward today in his press conference. Mikel's comments on Sunday were that his progress was good [...]
Before the game yesterday I would have taken the point. Sod the context of Liverpool being nine clear of us and screw the fact that you don't get many chances to overtake City and make ground on them, this was an away game against a tough opponent who had been in decent form. Yet after [...]
Yesterday's City defeat has cast today's game in a slightly different light I think. I still believe that if Arsenal lose, we're probably out of the title race, but a draw puts us one point closer to them and although Liverpool will be nine points clear of us, that isn't unsurmountable. Liverpool won against Villa [...]
Mikel Arteta had his say ahead of tomorrow's tough encounter with Chelsea yesterday and, as usual, he was relatively tight-lipped on who was available. He confirmed that Declan Rice hadn't trained as of yesterday and I guess we all have to hope that his admission that he 'has to be vague' is just his way [...]
I'm reluctant to kick off today's musings with a commentary that starts to make it's way down the winding conspiracy theory road, but given I've seen a bit of chatter online about Michael Oliver's decision to disallow a goal against City Group-owned Girona FC on Tuesday, then it has emerged he's refereeing us again on [...]
As we approach the first of four away games in a row, Arteta will have his thinking cap on today on who and how to deploy his resources for the next two weeks because, without sounding overly dramatic, I think this next couple of week's will shape our season. Tomorrow night maybe less so, although [...]
