England surprise, but so do Arsenal, as Tavares deal looks a good one

Well, I have to say, I didn't expect that last night that's for sure. For year's I've been able to fall on my German family heritage as an excuse when it comes to having some skin in the game in the latter stages of international tournaments, but last night England completed their second back-to-back final [...]

Spain are the *chefs kiss* of the Euro’s (not Rodri or Cucurella though…)

That was a captivating semi final yesterday between France and Spain, I thought, with the French going ahead and the Spanish showing why they will eventually win this tournament, I think. Going in to the game I probably edged towards France because I think, ultimately, out of the two teams on the other side of [...]

Starboy Saka saves England – and no Arsenal fan is surprised

Sometimes - but very rarely - I write the title of the blog before I've even jotted a word down on the page to compile my daily thoughts. Today is one of those days for sure. Bukayo Saka showed why he is England's best player last night. Bukayo Saka showed why Gareth Southgate appeasing Phil [...]

Southgate’s tactical approach makes me happy we’ve got Arteta

Much like last Thursday and Friday last week, it's all gone deathly quiet and, with there being no Euro's like last Thursday and Friday as well as no real Arsenal news to speak of, it's becoming quite slim pickings indeed out there in the football universe. Last week I wasn't fussed because it was a [...]

Saliba the bossman once again, as Arsenal are linked to an Italian defender

Having spent the weekend at Glastonbury and not getting any signal to watch the Euro's other than the England game on Sunday (I managed to use the Management's work phone through some of jiggery pokery), I managed to get to watch both of the games yesterday and so feel like I'm back on track with [...]

The Austrians delight, the English are sh*te

Morning folks and welcome to the midweek. I decided to get a good dosage of football yesterday so watched the awesome game that was Austria and the Netherlands. It was a peach of a game with goals, great finishes, teams being pegged back and then ultimately the Austrians winning the group which, given it was [...]

Modric, Raya, Rice and Saka – Tuesday Euro 2024 thoughts

By |2024-06-25T09:09:49+01:00June 25th, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Internationals, Transfers|0 Comments

I watched a little bit of the Italy Croatia game last night, but only half paying attention in reality, because it did feel as though Croatia would eventually go out, although they nearly did something quite surprising by rolling back the years with Modric. I felt a bit sorry for them in the end; yet [...]
