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 [...]
Oh god how I hate these interminable international breaks. It feels like, for this season in particular, they were sent to try us Arsenal fans, as Saka limped off last night in England's pointless 2-1 defeat to Greece. Honestly, I wish international football was just fired in to the sun. I suppose it's my own [...]
It's the final of the Euro's and the Copa America today and that'll see the Spanish against the English and the Argentinians against the Colombians. Both games will, we all hope, be a cracker but obviously being based in Europe myself I'll be watching the English game in the UK, with my parents, brother and [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
Morning folks, we all good today? This will probably be my last post for a few days, as I'm off to Glastonbury with The Management today so will probably not get around to compiling any ramblings until next Tuesday. We were supposed to be going yesterday - hence not penning anything, but sadly the wife's [...]
