Howdy folks, we all good? Well, we know what our start looks like in the Premier League and, I'll have to admit, it could have been worse. That's because it could have been like the first season under Arteta where we had three quite tricky games back-to-back and that put us on the back foot [...]

Isn't it just classic Arsenal, eh? There I was, looking at the newly announced fixtures yesterday lunchtime, ready to go in to an in-depth and forensic analysis of the games  that we've got, how it might impact the start, middle and end of our season, where the 'winning runs' might be able to be put [...]

Arsenal’s run in does not make us favourites

Match day again and today it's the Carabao/League/Littlewoods/Carling/Rumbelows/Milk Cup that will see Arsenal face off at home to Sunderland for a place in the Semi Final. Football is all about winning matches and, more specifically, trying to win trophies and a win tonight would take us close enough to a semi-final tie in which we'd [...]

In this past week I've talked about the importance of momentum, about how when we've even been anywhere near the top of the league at any stage, it's been because we've had a good start to the season and that has carried through until at least the midway point. Yesterday I talked about it being [...]

Today is quite a big day in Unai Emery's Arsenal career, if you think about it, because in just over an hours time from me penning today's thoughts the Premier League fixtures will be out and we'll know whether he has been granted an opportunity to play a series of 'winnable' games or whether he's [...]
