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 [...]
I didn't watch any of the footie last night, but City's 4-1 defeat to Sporting certainly stands out. That Amorim chap masterminded quite a victory and it does make you wonder about what a capable manager might be able to do at Man United. Let's hope that it was a one off. We played them [...]
Ok so it looks like Rice is safe from injury, following playing (and scoring) last night in the England game against Finland. I didn't bother watching it, I wasn't interested in it, I've just checked in to see the score and see some of the goals and Rice's one was a classic lung-buster from our [...]
No matter how much I might try to today, there is absolutely no way of looking at that game yesterday any other way than through the lens of that 49th minute ‘incident’ featuring Veltman and Rice. As you will already know, on a yellow, Rice and Veltman came together by the corner flag and a [...]
With two week's to go until the season kicks off properly, it feels like the countdown to the season opener against Wolves is officially 'on now'. Not just because of the short amount of time left in pre season, but because we've also been treated to pictures of Saka, Saliba, Ramsdale and Rice all returning [...]
Happy Tuesday folks. Hope we're all good? It starts to get spicy in the Euro's now, with the two semi finals on tonight and whilst I'm pretty sure Spain will win, seeing Big Bill Saliba happy and in to the final would be nice. "See William? You don't NEED to go to Madrid at all [...]
Yesterday I went through the defence, so today I thought I'd do some musing over our midfield. Yesterday I also gave an honourable mention to Declan Rice, because I do truly believe that the trio of Gabriel, Saliba and Rice are the main reason as to why we were so miserly in conceding goals, but [...]
Morning folks - happy Thursday n'all that jazz. I think i'll do a few days in which I'll take a look at the team by on-pitch section, so today I thought I'd have a think about defenders, i.e. what went well, what went wrong, what we might look at for next season. I think if [...]
Yesterday I spoke about the importance of not taking Bournemouth too lightly. There had been a few Arsenal fans that I'd seen who had been talking about needing to bring up the goal difference against a team on the beach, but teams like Bournemouth are dangerous because there is no pressure and they can play [...]
We're halfway through the week, halfway to our next cup final and as awesome as it's been drinking in all of the salty Scum tears, the focus absolutely has to switch to the challenge of Bournemouth, who will not be an easy opponent on Saturday lunchtime. One person I will be hoping that is in [...]
