Well, it seemed as though yesterday we got our first properly credible link to the Shaktar winger Mykhaylo Mudryk, as David Ornstein reported yesterday mid morning that he was our number one priority. Ornstein doesn't touch rumours unless they have some kind of credibility to him so on the basis of that and years of [...]
Blimey, how about that for a couple of quarter finals yesterday, eh? Clearly both Brazil and Croatia, as well as Argentina and The Netherlands, were watching the Dubai Super Cup the other day and thought "do you know what? We fancy a go at that 'penalties after the match' kinda vibe". What a pull our [...]
Just when I was starting to really enjoy this World Cup and international football, a timely reminder was dealt to me this morning as I scrolled through my Twitter timeline and read the news about Gabriel Jesus' injury: Three months out instead of three weeks, as he'll probably need surgery. I've said it before and [...]
Morning campers, hope you're all feeling fine, as we approach the first weekend in December which for me is Christmas decorations time! It seems as though the World Cup is leaning in to the craziness too, because yesterday we got another batch of evening games in which things swung hither and thither and I'll be [...]
Yesterday I had a really busy day of meetings and personal appointments, so I didn't watch a single minute of football. By the sounds of it, that started off as a good idea with what Switzerland, Cameroon, Uruguay and South Korea all served up, but I've seen and heard some of the comments on the [...]
Yesterday I penned some thoughts about who could most benefit from the second pre season we're about to get. You can have a read of that here if you like. Then, as I was out on my run this morning, I was listening to one of the many Arsenal podcasts I tune in to when [...]
Yesterday I had a lot of fun. Hella fun. And it all started with The Arsenal. I’ve never got up at 6am, trudged across town, got to an Arsenal bar to watch the game at 7am before, but if the result could be the same as what we got yesterday at home to Forest, then [...]
Update…wrote this this morning, but it didn’t send! So hitting it now. Have a good one folks! ****** Morning Gooners. We all good on this Wednesday? I know I am. Weirdly I went out to a black tie do and I feel quite fresh this morning - think it’s because I headed the words of [...]
The good vibes just keep on coming this season and yesterday evening, under the fading light of the October sky, The Arsenal knocked down another one of those media narratives that had plagued us in recent years: "Can't beat the truly top teams like Liverpool or Man City" Oh yes we can. Oh yes we [...]
I feel a little weird about today. Last weekend before the game I was a bundle of nerves. It was the North London derby, I feared the 'smash and grab' from the Scum, I wondered whether the media narrative would be overflowing with joy if they beat us; it felt like there was so much [...]
