Three points, loads of goals, am impressive performance and to top it all off.....away from home! As the countdown to kick off slowly approached yesterday I found myself checking my football news feeds for stories that the game was going to get called off. Villa vs Burnley was announced a couple of hours before kick [...]
This feels a little weird this morning because I'm writing a pre match preview of the game later on today between Leeds and The Arsenal, without really being 100% confident as to whether it will actually be going ahead, what with all of the COVID-19 problems causing matches left, right and centre to be cancelled [...]
Morning all and welcome to Friday. Hope you're all feeling good? I had to take the first of my lateral flow 'countdown to Christmas' tests this morning. I didn't go to West Ham on Wednesday because I didn't want to risk it, plus the fact I was in the Tollington on Saturday and it was [...]
Watching football, talking about football, writing about football - it's all hella fun when your team plays well and wins, eh? That's what we had yesterday evening and I tell you what; I slept sound as a baby last night. Compared to the Everton performance where I tossed and turned all evening, last night was [...]
It's match day and whilst the focus should be on who are the best and fittest players available to be selected today to try to get us back on track and winning at home to Southampton, unfortunately we are once again dealing with some problems in the Arsenal camp, or at least what looks like [...]
Tottenahm, West Ham and Man United all won this weekend, which brings in to focus exactly what is needed from Mikel Arteta's side tonight as we face an Everton team who have had some injuries, some poor run of form, but haven't lost at home to us in four years. Last season we lost 2-1 [...]
Happy Monday to you and yours. Hope you are doing all good. In London it's bloody freezing and as I tap away at my laptop on the tube heading in to London for a day of work, I'm wondering about how cold it was for those subs sat on the sideline who didn't get on [...]
The big decisions Arteta needed to make yesterday surrounded what to do with some of the youngsters who had perhaps looked a little out of their depth at times last weekend at Liverpool and before a ball had even been kicked I saw plenty of people split over what to do with the starting line [...]
Another win to add to the growing list people, which is never a bad thing, even if it was in the League Cup and with a heavily rotated team. I'm sure you're bored of having to put all the usual caveats in place - "it was only the League Cup", "Leeds fielded a slightly weaker [...]
The England team finally understand how to play tournament football with compelling win over Ukraine.
