A victory on penalties is still a victory, albeit a friendly victory and one in which I certainly think we can learn a bit from, get a bit excited about, but also be a little apprehensive. Let's get the painful stuff out of the way first though. Like ripping off the plaster on your knee [...]
Because we haven't had a new manager in so many years prior to this summer, we haven't seen the usual "this manager is working us soooo much more harder than the last one" type comments from footballers at Arsenal, so yesterday's comments from Bellerin are welcome but I personally take it with a pinch of [...]
What absolutely tragic news for poor old Laurent Koscielny. Yesterday Didier Deschamps confirmed that our number one centre half would miss the World Cup and when you consider his age profile, as well as the problems he's had with his achilles in recent years, this is a crushing blow for one of our most consistent performers [...]
In many ways the way in which we went out of the tie against Atletico was emblematic of the final years of Arsène's reign as manager. Defensively not at the races, offensively not quite potent enough, with players that at times look like they were trying but ultimately the team just wasn't good enough. Weirdly [...]
The big question about the Arsenal team today is: How much will Arsene Wenger rotate today? There's little doubt that there will be some element of rotation (you can do a bit of betting - as well as some casino stuff here at 1xbet promo code if you fancy it) but should he completely reshuffle his pack [...]
Some pre match thoughts on the Europa League second leg between AC Milan and Arsenal at the Emirates. This game could be won or lost with the first 15 minutes.
Well I guess that went as well as can be expected. I mean you can't really grumble at a three-nil away victory rendering the next leg a would-be dead rubber, although with a the Arsenal I guess it's always got a caveat... But still, the job was done and on a surface which was false, [...]
It's New Year's Eve and for the first time in a while that I can remember that is also coupled with a match day, so the celebrations of seeing in a New Year will either be helped or hindered by today's Arsenal performance. On the 28th in the main Arsenal played well but still contrived [...]
A December 2017 win against Crystal Palace for Arsenal and whilst defensive issues remain, the goals flowed.
Moaning y'all and welcome to Sunday match day, a day in which we once again travel away to a tough ground to try to pick up three points against an in form team, in the shape of Burnley. This'll be a tough one today. Burnley are an established Premier League side under Dyche but more [...]
