Yesterday I drove up to see the Management's family for our 'part two' of Christmas and as we travelled up I decided to flick on the radio to have a listen to the Newcastle v Forest game. I do love the Christmas period because aside from Christmas Day, there is football on basically all the [...]

It’s good or it’s bad – an Arsenal fan’s binary view

Having been in the Cotswolds with friends enjoying some relaxation, booze and nice food, I managed to avoid the post match frustration from Saturday until yesterday evening. James and I did the Same Old Arsenal post match pod chat and, if I'm honest, on this occasion it didn't feel like as much catharsis as it [...]

Morning folks. We all good? Mikel Arteta has been chatting to Marca and in the interview as you'd expect, he didn't give too much away in terms of potential signings, but with the Havertz stuff he did give the clearest indication you're going to get with a player as he admitted that 'talent has a [...]

Smith Rowe is a no-go

When David Ornstein dropped his latest Ornbomb (see below) about how Arsenal had no intention of selling Emile Smith Rowe this summer, there were a fair few members of the online community that I follow who expressed a wee bit of surprise. Positive surprise, but surprise nonetheless. He's a popular player, he's one of our [...]

Happy Tuesday people. Have you fully recovered from the weekend's emotional high? Or are you still drinking in all levels of content? I think mine is just about starting to wear off, but mainly because we're just over 48 hours until we are on to our next game away to Sporting Lisbon, a match which [...]

How do Arsenal unlock those stubborn low block defences?

Morning folks, how we all doing? Looking forward to tomorrow night's slugfest against Everton? Because let's face it, it will be a slugfest. It will be a gruelling, grinding, low-blocking, frustration of an evening as Everton try to double up on our wide forwards, they camp on the edge of their own box with bodies, [...]

Which Arsenal player needs Pre-season 2.0 the most?

Now that we're getting in to 'Part one of the Prem definitely over' territory, I've started to think about this period between now and Christmas as a bit of an off-season/pre season for The Arsenal; there are players heading off for some holidays, there are some players going to a World Cup, Arteta and his [...]

Feeling for Emile…

There's only one place to start this morning, given that Arteta doesn't face the media until this afternoon, which is the disappointing news that Emile Smith Rowe has undergone surgery on that groin problem that has kept him in and out of the team all season and will now not be available until after the [...]

Arsenal should be upbeat, providing injuries don’t cripple us

Morning Gooners, welcome to Tuesday, a grizzly one in London which you'd expect that to be the mood after losing up in Manchester yet again. But it kind of isn't. I've woken up this morning thinking about that game and thinking "that kind of result doesn't happen that way nine out of ten times". I [...]

Will Arsenal’s winger search really come from the Premier League?

Morning all and happy Thursday I bestow unto thee... I went to a place called the Blues Kitchen in Camden last night and probably drank a little bit too much for a random Wednesday, but hey ho, it was a lot of fun and the ribeye steak was flavourful enough to be worthwhile. I'm telling [...]
