Arsenal deliver a game of one quarter to secure a draw against Chelsea

We've had three draws this season and for a side who have aspirations on the title, you can look at that after nine games and without knowing any context think "hmm...that's not exactly the most amazing start". But, as with all things, context is everything and I don't think there is an Arsenal fan out [...]

A tough challenge that Arsenal have to overcome if they want to be considered title contenders – Chelsea away

Morning Gooners - happy matchday! We're back! FINALLY! And it's a tough one to get us back in to the swing of things, as I think this Chelsea team will be bang up for an upset this evening. Their season started off with a respectable draw against Liverpool at home and I watched that game. [...]

Arteta gives little away as usual ahead of tough Chelsea encounter

Morning Gooners and welcome to the end of the working week! Well, it is from me, obviously I'm not sure if yours is too, but even if not, I wish you a happy Friday nonetheless. I decided to go have a couple of drinks and some Italian food with The Management last night, hence the [...]

Waiting on Mikel to give us a good injury update

As we begin the countdown to a tough away trip to Chelsea (yes, it will be tough, as they've not been as bad as their league form suggests), I've started to see the noises coming out from both fanbases ahead of the game. Whether it's the Arsenal fans who are batting away any chance of [...]

FFP: Farcically Foul Play

Yo yo Gooners, y'alreet? Just getting in to the lingo for KT's move to Newcastle, as apparently they're 'back in the hunt' for the full back. The supposed reason they haven't already gone in for him - given they are looking at signing a left back - is that they want to ensure they are [...]

Havertzing a laugh?

As the old cliche goes: football is a game of opinions. And this blog is my opinion. Often misinformed, regularly incorrect, sometimes just plain wrong. But it is opinions nonetheless and that's what it'll always be. That caveat out the way, let's get in to the big breaking news yesterday, delivered to us in the [...]

Arsenal won’t Mbappe, will they?

There are some very wishful thinkers in the Arsenal fanbase, that's for sure, because if anybody thinks that we're truly going even get a sniff - let alone drop a cursory star - at Kylian Mbappe this summer after the news emerged that he will not activate his additional year clause and that PSG are [...]

Arsenal hold serve against woeful Chelsea

Pre game yesterday the nerves had returned. I was in the pub talking to the lads and I had the not-very-nice feeling that there could be a banana skin being placed before us in the shape of Chelsea. They had some injuries, they were woefully out of form, they had a manager in Frank Lampard who clearly [...]

Start fast and get the first goal against Chelsea, Arsenal

Morning folks. It's another match day and after the last few that we've had, the old fears and nervous butterflies have crept their way back in to my stomach. About a month ago those things were more excitement than fears, because we were on a great run of form, playing good football, looking every bit [...]

What does Arteta do tactically: Stick or twist?

Bit of a weird one for a Saturday blog today, because although it is a Premier League weekend, Arsenal don't play until Tuesday, which means we'll be watching all of the other Premier League games unfolding in front of us, without any real proper football at all. From a personal point of view I'd rather [...]
