My take on the Bellerin situation

Thursday is upon us lovely people and I hope you are enjoying yourselves. I'm not sure what the weather is like where you are but it's scorching in the UK right now and for that I couldn't be happier. I know, I know, global warming, climate change and all that jazz, but gosh darn it, [...]

Arteta and Auba – more to it than we all thought?

Morning folks and welcome to Wednesday. Wearing myself the new pink Arsenal shirt today for work and I have to say - me likey. I've finally succumbed; been supporting Arsenal since I was seven and I've never bought a home, away and third kit in a season but I thought 'hell, these are nice' and [...]

Arsenal’s accordion pressing approach – this is just the start (hopefully)

Morning folks, happy Saturday and all that jazz. Much nicer to face an entire weekend knowing that The Arsenal did their job early, eh? It meant I could look at the games yesterday with a little more of a shrug than I would have done if we'd have drawn or lost. Okay, I see that [...]

The ‘new’ Arsenal and a little of the ‘old’ Arsenal overcome Palace

This time last year - nearly enough (matchday one of the Premier League I mean, as the season has started early this year), I was the best man having organised a stag trip to Edinburgh. I had the Brentford game on my smartphone and I watched as an under-prepared, poorly resourced, Arsenal team stuttered and [...]

What do you expect from The Arsenal this season?

Ahead of the big kick off tomorrow evening, I've been asked by a few people on social media and in WhatsApp groups, about what my expectations are for this season ahead. And do you know what? I don't really have an answer to it if I'm completely honest. I'm going to try to fashion some [...]

This Arsenal team is ready

Morning morning, fellow gooners! How we all doing? Feeling chipper after that absolute mauling yesterday? I know I am. On top of the world, in fact, because if you’re going to lay down a blueprint for how a pre season should draw to a close, I’m not sure many of us would disagree that giving [...]

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 [...]

Don’t underestimate the value of a good pre season

Morning all. We all good? Middle of the week for those of us who are Monday to Fridayers and it's a countdown to the final game of the pre season before the real stuff starts. It's Sevilla at home in the Emirates Cup and unlike previous renditions of the competition, it won't be a footballing [...]

Edu’s charm offensive working a treat

Happy Tuesday fellow Arsenal-supporting mad people. Hope you and yours are all doing great? Are you feeling bullish about the season ahead? I know I am! And part of that is when I watch/read/listen to stuff from the likes of Edu like we've seen over the last 24 hours, where both Sky Sports, but then [...]
