Patiently waiting and hoping for a clean Arsenal bill of health
So, we're done with this frigging pointless friendlies and, as suspected Gareth Southgate kept Declan Rice on the pitch for the full 96 minutes last night. I flicked on and awatched about 10 minutes of the first half as I was cooking to see Pickford have a howler, then I heard about Lewis Dunk's howler, [...]

Saliba slighted, Rice rejoicing – the internationals still rumble on…
Oh Didier....if you're gonna come for Big Bill Saliba, you better swing hard and true, because we Arsenal fans will have his back for sure! Of course I'm sure Deschamps couldn't give a monkeys about us and what we feel, but regardless of that, it does feel a little crass of him to make comments [...]

Arsenal control a sorry West Ham
Well what a result that was for The Arsenal yesterday, eh? It was a performance that had everything: control, goals, returning player narratives, screamers, ole's from the away fans, the lot. If you ask me what the perfect away day looks like, it would be what those Arsenal players delivered at the London Stadium in [...]

The timely re-integration of Thomas Partey?
With Mikel Arteta not doing his press conference until tomorrow lunchtime, it's up to us to start doing ALL THE SPECULATIONS on the game we have on Sunday, which was of course ably delivered on the Same Old Arsenal Podcast with the two James' last night. James J went for a 1-0 scraper and I [...]

Christmas honours shared with a battling point at Anfield for The Arsenal
I watched last night's game from my parents house sat alongside another Gooner and, quite unusually for me, a Liverpool fan. He was my teenage Godson and at 15 he could do a fair bit of talking, so I was somewhat apprehensive of another potential defeat at Anfield. He'd already talked up Klopp as the [...]

Impressive Arsenal shut out Brighton and go top again
This season is going to be one heck of a rollercoaster, if the first half of the season is anything to go by, after a weekend in which we find ourselves back on top after an excellent victory over Brighton yesterday lunchtime. I say this because this time last week we were ruing our missed [...]

Last-gasp Arsenal do ‘limbs’ against Luton
Sometimes it's just good to start at the end and work backwards, which is what I think I'll do today, because last night as Declan Rice's 97th minute header hit the back of Luton's net, I let out a high pitch scream that woke the Management and the cat up from their slumbers in the [...]

Declan Rice is Arsenal’s most important player
Howdy folks from the Southern hemisphere. Hope you guys are all doing well? I've been thinking about this topic for a while so thought given that we're in the middle of the tedium that is the international break, I'd pen some thoughts about our £100million man Declan Rice, who by now we all absolute adore [...]

How worried should we be about Thomas Partey’s injury?
The beauty about such a fabulous result as we got at the weekend, is that when it comes just before we all have to endure an international break, we can live through that results and string out the joy for a little bit longer than we normally would. For me personally, for example, I'd usually [...]
