So it seems we are now playing the waiting game when it comes to our Boxing Day fixture. Two games were called off yesterday, including Wolves’ match against Leeds and that means Wolves will have had a full nine days rest between their 0-0 draw against Chelski on 19th and when they play us. Hardly [...]
So we know our fate for the semi final of the Carabao Cup and it's a two-legged affair with Liverpool that we'll need to contend with in January. Of course of the three teams left in the competition we could have faced - The Scum, Chelski and Liverpool - it is the scousers who are [...]
There's no besmirching a 5-1 win, that's for sure and when you do it having rotated most of your team in the League Cup during a busy festive schedule, waking up the next morning feels all the more jubilant I reckon. We've seen plenty of instances in the past where rotated teams for Premier League [...]
Match day again and today it's the Carabao/League/Littlewoods/Carling/Rumbelows/Milk Cup that will see Arsenal face off at home to Sunderland for a place in the Semi Final. Football is all about winning matches and, more specifically, trying to win trophies and a win tonight would take us close enough to a semi-final tie in which we'd [...]
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 [...]
I don't like talking about them, but upon hearing the news that Tottenham are on the verge of having their games against Rennes and Brighton potentially postponed due to the outbreak of COVID cases that is in their camp, I can't help but feel incredibly frustrated and aggrieved. It feels like there is one rule for [...]
Last night's shambolic Arsenal performance was a massive alarm bell for me. It was an appalling indictment of all the things Arteta and his Arsenal team have got wrong and although we went through a good run of form before the last international break, that is looking more and more like an outlier in the [...]
This morning I've woken up and the first thought popping in to my head is: "What are we going to do about Thomas Partey, eh?" I wonder if Arteta is thinking the same? Maybe, but maybe not, because perhaps he has more information about the Ghanaian that we do not have? Perhaps he is privy [...]
There were United fans crying about the first Arsenal goal last night, bleating on about injustice, fair play and all of that nonsense. I'll tell you what injustice is; going to Old Trafford, being the better team for most of the match, then coming away with nothing. That's how I am feeling this morning and [...]
Ahh December the first. The first day of the month in which I officially now go crazy by listening to Christmas music all of the time, over-indulging by basically being out drinking most evenings, watching Christmas movies whenever I can and overloading my company Microsoft Teams chat with gifs related to the festive season. But [...]
