Monday came and went with players returning to training and, unlike in places like Southampton where the odd chap doesn't show for his first day back with his current club, everyone at Arsenal came back who was supposed to come back. No Szczesny stuck in a wishing well, no Wilshere falling in to the Grand [...]
London black cabs everywhere will be a little less cheery in their disposition this morning, after Lukas Podolski's agent confirmed that he'll be making the switch to Turkish football to play for Galatasaray this summer. I think we all knew it was coming, but the fact that Poldi's agent said that they had a long [...]
So for yours truly here after 10 days of sunshine, Sagres and late morning get-ups, it's back to work in Blighty and back to writing my daily musings at an hour in which I'd really rather be in bed. Oh well. At least I left with very little happening and will arrive today with the [...]
Day (what feels like) 72 in the Big Petr Cech House and, much like the social experiment TV programme that nobody bothers watching any more because everyone's realised that the inhabitants do absolutely nothing at all, there's nothing going on in the Petr Cech Saga. No new spins. No fresh angles. Just a quick article [...]
Almost as if to underline what I said yesterday about the Cech rumours, yesterday saw a new volley of sound bites hit our desktops and mobiles, firstly with Tomas Rosicky and then with Jose Mourinho himself. Rosicky played the ultimate 'Undercover Agent' card and effectively stated that there was interest on both sides for Cech, [...]
hello there you. Are you pleased it's a Friday and not a Tuesday? I am. It means I get a bit of a lie in tomorrow. Plus my dad promised me a BBQ at his house in the evening on Saturday, so it will be a full day of rest, just got to get through [...]
Thank some sort of deity that it's Friday. Don't get me wrong, it's not like I've had a shocking week - Arsenal result aside - I've just had enough of the proverbial stuff thrown at me work-wise that I'll be grateful for a few days off. Plus the league have deemed it acceptable for us [...]
Today the good lord Bergkamp could see fit to bless upon us the day of St Totteringham, in which we celebrate the mathematical certainty that Arsenal will finish above the other team in North London in the Premier League. Ideally a draw yesterday coupled with an Arsenal win would have made this weekend just about as good [...]
It's Thursday, the countdown to the top of the table clash between us and Chelski is now rolling in to full-on 'countdown', the players are starting to trickle out little tit-bits of information and Arsène will no doubt give us an injury update later on today before addressing the press tomorrow (unless his pressed is [...]
It's nearly here folks, time is almost upon us and although it's not the FA Cup final but the seminar Wembley, I'm still mega excited. Imagine what I'll be like tomorrow when it actually comes around to kick off?We have already had the prologue from Arsène; possibly eager to cocoon the players in a hotel [...]
