Sambi signs – but replacing Ceballos or Xhaka?

By |2021-07-20T07:37:20+01:00July 20th, 2021|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, midfield, pre season, Transfers|3 Comments

We have ourselves a fresh new signing to talk about! Ok, so it's not exactly like the old 'Sol Campbell turns up when everyone thought it was Richard Wright' level of surprise and intrigue, because we all knew this deal was going to happen and we've been fed enough information to know it was more [...]

Villareal thoughts: Arteta’s tinkering and Ceballos’ inclusion could cost us

The most positive thing to come from what we witnessed last night was that we are still, somehow, in this tie. That it had to come from a penalty which was, let's face it 'generous' at best, is a real cause for concern and in a semi final of a European competition you really do [...]

Evade a high press against Sheffield United and don’t hoof long, Arsenal

By |2021-04-11T09:40:36+01:00April 11th, 2021|Arsenal FC, Attack, gooners, Gunners, injuries, Match Preview, midfield, Mikel Arteta, Tactics|0 Comments

In the grand scheme of things the result tonight probably doesn't really matter too much against Sheffield United. Of course we want to win, but winning will neither cement a position in a part of the league we want to be at, nor will it enable us to climb the league to any significant amount. [...]

‘Routine victory’ not in Arsenal vocab

My my my. We really are something, aren't we, eh? Clock ticking down, time running out, 11 minutes plus stoppage time to turn what would have been a disappointing draw away to Olympiakos in Athens and up steps forward two unlikely goalscorers with two super goals to put us in control of this two-legged tie. [...]

Saka the saviour as Auba and Arsenal profit from our talented wonderkid

Oh Arsenal, you do make me age, quite significantly I can tell you. With just over an hour gone I had come to the grim acceptance that our season was effectively over before March had even begun. We were down 2-1 to Benfica, 3-2 on aggregate, needing another two goals in the game to put [...]

Arsenal must be quicker in possession against Newcastle

By |2021-01-18T08:15:29+00:00January 18th, 2021|Arsenal FC, Attack, Match Preview, midfield, Mikel Arteta, premier league, Tactics|1 Comment

As the saga I spoke about rumbles further on with pictures and the like coming out yesterday early evening, mercifully we have something else to focus on, which is an important game at home to Newcastle United tonight. It's a game that if I'm completely honest with you about, I'm not exactly massively confident about. [...]

Arteta’s not had the luck, but he isn’t letting that get to him

Well here we are, back to the proper football weekend's, which also means some words of wisdom from our young manager. Mikel Arteta had his press conference yesterday and talked about the proposed bust up of Luiz and Ceballos, the international breaks, as well as team news ahead of the weekend as we show down [...]

Spikiness in Arsenal training is good for me

Morning folks, how goes it? Hope you're all doing well? The Management has COVID so I'm in isolation until the end of the UK isolation, which kind of sucks because I won't get to do any exercise - something that has been really beneficial for me during this weird ol' year, but hey ho. Them's [...]

How Arsenal move the ball quicker from back to front

If ever you wanted an example of footballers not living in the normal world, it comes courtesy of Willian who supposedly if you read some of the stories from yesterday, decided to head off to Dubai during this international break. In normal times that'd be ok if he's been given a few days off but [...]
