Lacazette’s lacka output won’t secure him any big move
Looks like Alexandre Lacazette has been keeping his eyes open and options available for his next move, having spoken to French TV, who yesterday released his comments about having multiple offers from teams and also wanting to play for a Champions League club. I'm sure you do Alex, I'm sure you do. But let's not [...]

Arsenal’s attacking problems stare us all in the face against Southampton
Yesterday's defeat was painful in so many ways. It was painful because the Scum had given us an opportunity to draw level and we didn't take it. Its was painful because it was obvious to see that Southampton were not very good. It was painful because we picked the right starting line up in my [...]

Praying for Arteta’s admission of errors
There was no press conference yesterday so it'll mean we'll get to hear from Mikel Arteta today and although today is titled 'Good Friday' in the Christin calendar, I'm not expecting any 'good' news from the injury front. I suspect it'll simply be that the players that are injured are still injured, that we have [...]

Why do I now fear Arteta’s selection approach?
I chose my words to the title for today's musings quite carefully here. I know there are people that are convinced that Arteta is, from a tactical perspective, a man who knows his onions and he has shown that at times this season. I also know that there are a proportion - a small one [...]

Arsenal’s European curse
I find it very difficult to watch the Champions League these days. The frustrations of seeing other teams progress when we haven't had a stab at it in so long is annoying and the fact that over the last 10 days or so we have - what feels to me like - probably lost our [...]

Abject Arsenal’s top four hopes could take a bad turn based on last night
I feared last night's game. I feared the intensity of Palace, I feared them hitting us on the counter, I feared the pressure getting to our players, I feared that one or two sub par performances could cause us issues. We didn't get one or two though. We got a full 11 poor performances. Last [...]

Top four twists and turns still to come
Happy Sunday campers - hope you guys are all doing well? No proper football until tomorrow evening, but despite the fact I thought to myself that I wouldn't bother watching Man United beat Leicester City yesterday evening, I flicked on the TV in the kitchen last night as I was cooking to see what was going [...]

Playing on Monday for The Arsenal – the good and bad news
Morning peeps. Happy Saturday, even if it is an Arsenalless one and in my head, I can't quite work out if it is good or bad to have to wait until Monday night before we play. The bad is that by the time the weekend is done we could see the Scum level on points [...]

Keeping Arteta as it starts to get really good is key
It's all gone a bit quiet in the Arsenal world which, let's be honest, is a good thing because it means we haven't learned of any players with limbs hanging off as a result of the international fixtures that were played this weekend. Perhaps that's a good thing so I won't knock it too much. [...]
