I hope I can come on here after another 28 matches just like yesterday, because the keyword of the day will be this every time if I do: Routine. That needs to be the definer of Arsenal this season with games like this and if Arsenal can continue to put in performances like they did [...]
We're nearly there folks. International football is nearly in our rear view mirror. Well, for at least month, that is. But it appears on face value as though this latest round of games as been positive, so let's run through who did what, shall we? Starting off with the mid-morning kick off our time with [...]
Happy Friday folks! I've not been drinking for a few weeks and, unlike when I set myself one of those 'don't drink for a calendar month' jobbies, this time around I just did it midway through the month after I got back from Greece and I found the first couple of week's really easy. They [...]
With the Interlull tedium now fully enveloping us all, as I was on my morning run, I was thinking about "what are the best possible outcomes for The Arsenal for this upcoming international break/weekend?" I have concluded that the following would be rather nice: Calafiori's legs don't implode Last season it felt like every time Riccardo [...]
I watched the Chelsea versus Liverpool game on the tube home from The Arsenal last night, then finished off the second half in my kitchen as I cooked a big juicy ribeye steak and as well as being the result we all wanted, the game itself was a proper good game of basketball football. Liverpool [...]
Is it safe to come out? Did every Arsenal player make it out in one piece? It sounds like it to me. Even in the early hours of the morning with the Brazil game, mercifully Big Gabi and Martinelli were both unused subs, as the Selecao went on to lose 1-0 away to Bolivia. That sounds [...]
With it being Wednesday and still a good four days until the game against Liverpool, I've still been drinking in some of the Eze stuff, whilst also watching the odd tactical review of the game against Leeds. I said before that game that I thought it was difficult to know what Leeds team would turn [...]
We finally got the announcement on Christian Mosquera yesterday and as usual it was accompanied by a pretty swish intro video that had all the hallmarks of the Arsenal social media team. Nicely put together, he said the right things and by all accounts this looks and feels like a very good an sensible signing. [...]
Here was me getting all hot under the collar over Gyokeres and Sesko yesterday, whilst all along Arsenal were making their moves for a certain Martin Zubimendi behind closed doors. I should start talking about left backs. Maybe that'll be enough reverse-jinx for us to do a striker deal in the next 48 hours... The [...]
Sometimes writing some morning thoughts feels like a slog. Sometimes it just rolls out of my head and on to the page. Today is one of those (the latter) days. I was nervous., I'm sure you were nervous. This was Real Madrid. This was the 15 times champions, on their patch, with a solid three days [...]
