Howdy peeps, from an overcast Johannesburg, in which me n the Management are spending our Christmas with friends. The time zone is a couple of hours ahead of the UK which meant I was able to time the watching of the game with an early dinner, meaning no disruption to the most important activity of [...]

Some teams get all the luck…

Happy Friday folks - hope you're all good? It's my last working day today and also my last in the UK for the next three weeks, as I jet off to South Africa for the holidays, so it was fun to learn that the Scum almost blew a three-goal lead in the League Cup last [...]

Balance restored in second half – and we have a spark from Gabriel Jesus

I said it as I was on my way home last night from The Emirates, but that was your archetypal 'tale of two halves' from The Arsenal last night, from attacking sense, I mean. Arteta suggested he would do a bit of rotation and I had a feeling that Tierney would make his way back [...]

Round one: Squad must step up against Palace tonight

By |2024-12-18T07:05:22+00:00December 18th, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Attack, Defence, League Cup, Match Preview, Mikel Arteta|0 Comments

It's League Cup action tonight as we play Palace at home and I think I speak for everyone (maybe) when I say: Play all the squaddies Mikel! I've chosen my words carefully here, because the usual response with a game like this is 'kids', but I think we're in need of some rotation tonight and [...]

Can history repeat itself from last Christmas for The Arsenal?

I was driving back from the parents' place yesterday morning, before getting on with a day of work, so didn't have time to pen some post thoughts two days after the 0-0 against Everton. What I would have said yesterday, however, was that I was still grumpy about that game. It's games like that when [...]

Smith Rowe could go, but do Arsenal need to watch the home grown situation?

Morning folks and welcome to Tuesday, where the whirring of the transfer window appears to be up and running already, it seems. Last night it was Emile Smith Rowe's turn to be thrust into the spotlight, as Sky Sports ran with a story that Fulham and Palace are both interested in his signature. That's probably [...]

Transfer x won’t define our season

Howdy folks and welcome to Monday. They're much more palatable when The Arsenal have picked up three points and have bagged a bunch of goals, eh? I saw a few fans say that we should shut up about the Newcastle goal that was given now that we've had our own version of that goal allowed, [...]

Arsenal get the psychological win they needed against Palace

By |2024-01-21T04:43:12+00:00January 21st, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Attack, Match Review, premier league|0 Comments

Greetings from a warm and sunny Maldives. The Management and I arrived yesterday and have a week away from the cold weather in the UK, which is lovely, although it has it's drawbacks as I had to give up my ticket for the Palace game yesterday, which was the evening over here. And as I [...]

Arsenal vs The embodiment of Low Block FC

Happy matchday folks! Hope you're all good? Excited for The Arsenal finally being back today? I know I bloody am! It feels like it's been AGES! It's almost as if it's been worse than an international break, for some weird reason, as I recently pointed out here. But it's back, The Arsenal are back, there's [...]

Is Smith Rowe impressing in Dubai enough to kick him on?

By |2024-01-19T05:25:57+00:00January 19th, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Attack, gooners, Gunners, injuries, Mikel Arteta, premier league|1 Comment

Happy Friday folks, hope you guys are all good? It'll be press conference day today ahead of the Palace game and with less than two week's until the transfer window closes I think it's inevitable that Arteta is once again asked the question on whether there are any incomings happening this January and, inevitably, he [...]
