Calafiori’s very different look in an Italian shirt

The Arsenal Women provided the dosage of Arsenal football for many Gooners yesterday, albeit through the lens of a somewhat underwhelming 1-0 win over Brighton at home I hear. I say that mainly because I was out and about so couldn't watch the game, but I kept track on my phone and with Chelsea already [...]

Hale End girls save England as Gyokeres jets off to Asia

Morning folks - there's no better place to start today than that dramatic late winner for The England Women's team who last night progressed to the final. I find it lovely and heartwarming that these ladies have (once again) captivated the nation through their grit, determination and never-say-die approach to this tournament. That's two rounds [...]

Southgate’s ‘vibes’ and Arsenal’s links

Happy Friday folks. Wherever you are, hope it's a good one. Those in the England national team camp who played last night are probably not waking up with that feeling after their poor performance yesterday, that's for sure! I missed the first 15 or 20 minutes of the game, so didn't see Kane's tap in [...]

Round one of ‘Arsenal international damage report’ complete

This is the worst part of the international break. It really is - as Arseblog puts it - the 'Interlull'. Eng-ger-land might have played yesterday, Harry Kane might have got himself another individual accolade in a team sport (well done Harry, hope you keep up your record in cup competitions too), but frankly I couldn't give [...]

Impressive Italians and the boring ‘middle part’ of transfer saga’s – Arsenal style…

Happy Monday folks, how you all doing? It was Father's Day in the UK and that meant three trips to various locations for me n The Management, which meant very little time for the watching of football, so I have little to say on the Euro's on this drab London morning. I did watch the [...]

Arteta wants ALL THE CENTRE BACKS

Happy Saturday guys! Hope you are all well? It's due to be an absolute scorcher this weekend, so of course I'm going to spend it inside watching the Euro's! Obviously not, but I might find a way to get my laptop covered so I can watch some of the games whilst bathing myself on that [...]

Giroud – best of the Arsenal rest?

Morning folks. Welcome to Tuesday and welcome to a day in which that most emotional of people - the Italians - will be even more emotional given the fact that they’re players failed to reach the World Cup finals for the first time in a gazillion years.  I mention this only because I work with [...]

horrendous scenes in Italy and Mesut's high midi-chlorian count

If you could have written a more horrible ending to an England match, would it have been far off from seeing a host of Totteringham players celebrating a goal from the nation with which you were born? That's what I and many other English-born Arsenal fans had to endure last night, as Andros 'The Saviour' [...]
