Morning folks and welcome to an Arsenal-less Saturday. But of course Arsenal being Arsenal and this season being what it is (cursed), of course the dust had barely settled before we learned of another injury setback. If we all thought that seeing Martinelli get on the plane in the Dubai warm weather training trip was [...]
It's the start of a new week, we have to look forward instead of back from a football perspective, unless you're talking about Man United and the Scum. Both lost yesterday, both look shambolic, the only sad thing might be that Big Ange may not last until the end of January at this rate. There are [...]
It’s another game in this hectic schedule for The Arsenal this evening and with a potential League Cup final place at stake if Arsenal manage to overcome an in-form Newcastle side over two legs, it’s going to be a really tricky game against a side who will fancy their chances with the way they are [...]
Happy Christmas Eve y’all. Hope you’re enjoying the Christmas period and, like me, are already moving yourself in to Gorge Mode like I am. My normal approach the day after Mike Arteta has had his press conference is to pour over every word of his ahead of the game on 27th December, but given that [...]
Couldn't sleep in the early hours of the morning, so decided to get my arse out of bed and do a bit of pre game reading, see what's out there and whatnot. First things first on days like today I usually go to the traditional 'pundits previews'. You know, your Merse's, Sutton's, Jones Knows on [...]
The last few words I said on my blog post from yesterday: As Arteta said in the wake of the Chelsea game, it’s been eight weeks of consistent players going down with niggles, so we need to just get through this final international window and then get some flipping players back! Famous last words, eh? [...]
I'm reluctant to kick off today's musings with a commentary that starts to make it's way down the winding conspiracy theory road, but given I've seen a bit of chatter online about Michael Oliver's decision to disallow a goal against City Group-owned Girona FC on Tuesday, then it has emerged he's refereeing us again on [...]
In the pub before a ball was kicked, I said I would have taken a draw yesterday, so in the cold light of this Monday morning, it would be churlish of me to decry and bemoan the fact we dropped points against Liverpool yesterday. I was in a slightly unfamiliar territory in the upper tier [...]
Big game today. VERY big game. Made even bigger, even tougher, by the fact we have a number of question marks over players. We know Odegaard and Saliba are 100% out, we can be pretty sure about Calafiori, but what about Saka? Timber? There are so many questions that we all want answered and all [...]
One more day to go until the big showdown against Liverpool and the managers have both had their say. So, what have we learned? From Arteta As usual on the injury front, not a lot really, but I think none of us expected to get any real detail to be honest. On Saka, Timber and [...]
