Happy Thursday folks. Hope you're all recovered from the emosh of Tuesday night's Champions League encounter? One thing that I didn't touch on yesterday when I was still pretty raging, was how the tie is so finely balanced, so I thought I'd jot down some initial thoughts on that now. I do think the impact of [...]

Another one of the current crop tied down, as Arsenal announced that Takehiro Tomiyasu has extended his stay with the club by signing a new deal. And it was a lovely video that the club posted to announce it too: Dedication. Determination. Tomiyasu ✍️ pic.twitter.com/2Q6kGZWNza — Arsenal (@Arsenal) March 20, 2024 We all love Tomi, [...]

The main news that I'm hearing about this morning is that Takehiro Tomiyasu has agreed a new deal with The Arsenal, as we move to tie down more of those trusted players that Arteta likes in his squad, per various sources yesterday. For me I think this is the right thing to do. He's a [...]

Ahhh wasn't it nice to see Jurrien Timber back in training with the first team, eh? arsenal posted some pictures of him on the Emirates turf and after a tumultuous start to his Arsenal career caused by that ACL injury, he will feel like he can finally get back on track and make the most [...]

Porto was a good preparation for Newcastle’s antics

Morning folks - hope we're all in fine Friday form, despite the bad taste of Wednesday night's defeat. On the one hand it left a bitter taste and that's still circulating my mind, body and soul. But on the other hand we have the opportunity to expel that and replace it with the flavourful taste [...]

Positive news on returning players for Arteta – some rotation against Burnley?

By |2024-02-17T08:03:20+00:00February 17th, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Manager, gooners, Gunners, injuries, Match Preview, premier league|0 Comments

Matchday it is and it's a chance to keep pace with Liverpool and City. City play in the evening, Liverpool play at lunchtime and given the two opponents they have, I'm not expecting us to have anything beneficial come out of their two games, so we simply must do the business against Burnley in the [...]

Will we see Zinchenko, Jesus, Tomi or Kiwior tomorrow?

Morning folks and welcome to Saturday. We've still got over 24 hours until we rock up at The London Stadium (one of the worst to get in and out of I've ever experienced, I have to say) and yesterday Arteta was doing his usual press conference stuff in the afternoon to give us an insight [...]

Morning folks and a happy Monday to you and yours. Well...as happy as a Monday as you're going to get when there's been no Arsenal on and you've had to sit through a Man United versus Tottenham game in which both sides looked a little bit pants. The night before I'd watched a ding-dong of [...]

The delicate Partey balance

By |2024-01-11T10:47:14+00:00January 11th, 2024|analysis, Arsenal, Arsenal FC, gooners, Gunners, injuries, premier league|1 Comment

Yesterday I saw the news emanating from a few sources that Thomas Partey is close to a return to the side and that the club are potentially earmarking the Nottingham Forest game as a match in which he could play a part. My first reaction was a Futurama Professor Farnsworth-style "Good news everyone!" reaction. We have [...]

The timely re-integration of Thomas Partey?

With Mikel Arteta not doing his press conference until tomorrow lunchtime, it's up to us to start doing ALL THE SPECULATIONS on the game we have on Sunday, which was of course ably delivered on the Same Old Arsenal Podcast with the two James' last night. James J went for a 1-0 scraper and I [...]
