This time next week fellow Gooners, it'll be countdown to Premier League match weekend one and we'll be but a few days away from finding out just how ready Unai Emery's charges are for the slog ahead. The summer has been kind to us so far. We've done business early, the players have had plenty [...]

It's hotter than hell in the UK today. But you'll nee find me complaining that's for sure. I don't care that I have to squeeze myself into a suit for work because this type of summer feels like it comes along once in a lifetime and so I'm just embracing it. Much like Aaron Ramsey [...]

“Is Watford coming out for a kickabout?” And Emery’s pressing needs

By |2018-07-17T08:21:06+01:00July 17th, 2018|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Manager, friendly, pre season, Tactics, Unai Emery|0 Comments

With this weird period of time in the middle of pre season that we find ourselves in, it feels very strange to not be looking at a friendly or something going on at The Arsenal this weekend. It's a bit of a 'lull within a lull' for us. There aren't any games played until the [...]

Welcome to the worst day of the season: the Annual Defeat to Chelski-a-thon, in which we all think that surely probability will eventually work in our favour and we might actually get a win, but then we realise that the same fate will befall us that has befallen us many times before.

I don't know about you folks, but I thorough;y enjoyed watching yesterday's game against Bournemouth, pretty much from start to finish. Don't get me wrong, I was nervous and much like the crowd and its hushed tones up until the second goal went in I was feeling like we could easily eff it all up, [...]

What I'd like to see from Arsenal this season: the high press

Moning fellows and ladies, y'alright? I am. Despite the inevitable tired eyes that threaten to derail my sunny disposition, I'm feeling chipper, most probably because my first game back watching The Arsenal since visiting Wembley happens to be another trip to Wembley on Sunday.
