The Celebration Police and Arsenal

I can see that Richard Keys was doubling down on his Celebration Police narrative after the Wolves v Newcastle game. Yesterday I saw that he’d made comments about the players and the manager celebrating a 2-1 victory like it was a trophy they had secured. He was bleating on about the fact that it’s ‘only [...]

Arsenal and Gabriel showing their resilience against Fulham

Howdy all and hope you’re in a fine mood on this fabulous Sunday? I’m not going to mug you off here; I’m not going tell you that yesterday was the most rosiest of days for me as an Arsenal but, then again, I know you too feel the same - that was bloody uncomfortable at [...]

Start fast Arsenal, Fulham are no mugs

Starting today’s blog the night before, as I’ve got an early start tomorrow/today because of a cousin who decided a 7am tee time was an acceptable approach to a round of golf on a Saturday morning. He’s a Spurs fan too, which probably explains it: they are all completely mentally unhinged. Anyway, as I say, [...]

Arsenal’s poor selling approach has to stop. Now.

No pleasantries this morning, straight in to the 'WTF' moment and as you and I were at home patiently scrolling through our social media feeds, news broke of the utterly horrendous deal Arsenal had done for Bernd Leno. £3million up front is a borderline insult for such a 'keeper, with £1million if he plays a [...]

Arsenal should stand strong in the face of transfer sale adversity

Yesterday Arsenal lost a pre season, behind-closed-doors, game at London Colney to Brentford. We went down 2-1 to goals from footballers I've never heard of, with Nketiah getting our goal in between the two Brentford goals. Now, if we're going to caveat all of our victories this summer as 'it's only pre season', then this [...]

Greed has a new name: The European Super League

This should have been a post match review of our poor performance against Fulham yesterday. I should be bemoaning the application of VAR and a penalty in which I don't think Gabriel even touched the Fulham player who went down in the Arsenal box like a sack of spuds. We should lament the fact that [...]

Surround Lacazette with pace and punish Fulham in transition

Ahh man....my head hurts...four hours at the pub yesterday afternoon and a tomahawk steak for dinner and I have all the meat sweats and head pains. What I could really do with now is a bit of greasy food and then an Arsenal lunchtime win. I really don't want my brain to hurt more because [...]

Get those Hale Enders on the pitch on Sunday Mikel!

I'm sure there are some morning's where Mikel Arteta wakes up and thinks to himself: "eugh, I have to do a presser today" I bet after comprehensive victories like Thursday night, yesterday was NOT one of those days. So over he must have sped to London Colney to deliver his virtual conference to the assembled [...]

Fulham away: Up an underway with Arsenal’s new style

The season is underway and it is underway with three points and three goals from The Arsenal, without reply from Fulham at Craven Cottage, which makes for a lovely Sunday today in the English late summer sun. There’s something exciting brewing under Mikel Arteta and we are seeing that every week little by little. And [...]

Arsenal must silence potential Mitrovic/Knockheart partnership today

Iiiiiiiiiiit's MATCHDAY! Yep, I'm excited, despite all of my cynicism about the Project Restart, despite the fact we still don't quite have the balance right in midfield (as Mikel alluded to in his press conference yesterday), as well as the fact that we have a mountain of injuries already. I'm still so excited to see [...]
