Happy Friday folks - how we all doing? Let's start with some positive news, which is that yesterday afternoon Big Vik took to his Instagram to get pictures of himself in training. Given how Arsenal spend so much time trying not to give anything away by clearly selecting pictures they know won't include any players [...]

Firstly, a tip of the cap to the Arsenal Women, who beat Real Madrid again in 2025 in the Champions League. Nice work ladies! Always good to see. As for the men, well, they'll all be back now and the countdown is well and truly on to the North London Derby on Sunday. This is [...]

Big Gabi’s bad news means a step up for the two newbies

Yesterday morning I was brushing my teeth and I was thinking about the Big Gabi injury. I thought to myself "it feels like every time we get an injury update from a Fabrizio Romano or an Ornstein Bomba with regards to injuries over the last 12 - 18 months, it's always been worse than is first [...]

Is Martinelli’s injury record a cause for concern?

By |2025-11-13T13:02:34+00:00November 13th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Attack, injuries, Mikel Arteta|2 Comments

This morning I find myself thinking about Gabriel Martinelli. One of the longest-serving players in this Arsenal squad, it's easy to forget that the Brazilian is still just 24 years old and doesn't turn 25 until next June. He broke through with us properly at 18 under Emery and had some early impressive Europa League [...]

How do Arsenal’s injuries stack up against their rivals?

By |2025-11-11T08:03:02+00:00November 11th, 2025|Arsenal FC|0 Comments

With the Interdull now well underway and Arsenal fans having to spend their time looking at farcical programmes like Sky Sports' Ref Watch, one could be forgiven for switching away completely from all things football for a while. Arteta spoke after the Sunderland match about 'resetting' and I guess a lot of that is with the [...]

How much of an impact can Gabriel Jesus have?

By |2025-11-07T08:04:14+00:00November 7th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Attack, injuries, Match Preview, Mikel Arteta, premier league|0 Comments

We didn't get the Mikel Arteta press conference that I swore I saw somebody say was going to happen yesterday, but what we did get was sight of Gabriel Jesus in full first team training, which is lovely to see. I doubt it will mean anything for this weekend, because he'll need probably a few [...]

Arsenal’s makeshift attacking options must do the business in Prague

Morning campers, hope you're all well on this here Champions League match day, in which a visit to Prague is on the cards for the team for one of the earlier kick offs today. Firstly, we have to ponder who on earth is now going to be playing up front, after Big Vik succumbed to [...]

Things I’d like to see from this international break…

By |2025-10-08T07:53:40+01:00October 8th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, injuries, Internationals|0 Comments

With the Interlull tedium now fully enveloping us all, as I was on my morning run, I was thinking about "what are the best possible outcomes for The Arsenal for this upcoming international break/weekend?" I have concluded that the following would be rather nice: Calafiori's legs don't implode Last season it felt like every time Riccardo [...]

Odegaard’s injury was a freak, but the volume of games teams are playing tells a different injury story

By |2025-10-06T07:58:01+01:00October 6th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, injuries, premier league|0 Comments

To continue the theme for this season, which feels like a bit of a hangover from last season's luck, we find ourselves once again asking: Are we not allowed nice things? Arsenal confirmed that Martin Odegaard had suffered medial collateral ligament damage on Saturday with his clash of knees in the game against West Ham. [...]

How many Arsenal players have made it out alive so far?

By |2025-09-06T09:09:46+01:00September 6th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, injuries, Internationals|2 Comments

So here we are folks - we're now immersed deep into the mire that is the September international break, with players now away with their national teams and Arsenal's doing all kind of rain dances, prayers and voodoo witchcraft tricks in the hope that we get them all back in one piece. We've already suffered [...]
