In the end, the job was done, three points were secured and The Arsenal finished the evening top of the table, with the ability to watch the Liverpool v City game without thinking that we'd fluffed our chances this weekend. But it could have been very different indeed, had Kai Havertz not stepped in to [...]
There was Mikel Arteta's press conference yesterday and whilst there was a flurry of questions that he answered about Liverpool, team news, young players, the transfer window, etc, I think I'll spend the vast bulk of today speaking about Thomas Partey, who Arteta confirmed had a set back in training this last few days and [...]
Yesterday I drove up to see the Management's family for our 'part two' of Christmas and as we travelled up I decided to flick on the radio to have a listen to the Newcastle v Forest game. I do love the Christmas period because aside from Christmas Day, there is football on basically all the [...]
This season is going to be one heck of a rollercoaster, if the first half of the season is anything to go by, after a weekend in which we find ourselves back on top after an excellent victory over Brighton yesterday lunchtime. I say this because this time last week we were ruing our missed [...]
I think tonight might be a little trickier than some people might think. Going away to Sevilla and getting the result was good, but for some it might add a false sense of security on the outcome of tonight's match, particularly given our injury problems as it stands. No Timber, no Partey, no Smith Rowe, [...]
That was a pretty miserable night last night, if truth be told. I made the schlep all the way to the other side of London, to that soulless bowl of a stadium, having had to virtually sprint at every stage coming from West London as I had an over-running work event that I had to [...]
Morning Gooners - hope all is ok with you? Had a rubbish night sleep - work stuff playing on the mind - so feeling like I've been hit by a bus. Haven't even touched a drop of alcohol either, so it makes it even more annoying. But there you go, such is life and all [...]
For me personally yesterday was almost the most perfect sporting day I could have hoped for. First and foremost, which will take up the bulk of today's blog for obvious reasons, was the 4-0 away win over Bournemouth that Arsenal delivered to us on that most precious of things: A Saturday 3pm kick off. But [...]
It's match day in North London today! And that brings with it equal measures of excitement and trepidation. Always has, always will, but come 3pm Arteta and his players need to be ready to step up and do the business against a Fulham team smarting from a home 3-0 defeat last weekend against Brentford, as [...]
You know football is back when you look at the heart rate monitor and see that because of your elevated beats per minute, you've been fat burning on a Monday night from about 9pm onwards, despite sitting on your sofa. Specifically, you know you're an Arsenal fan who knows that football is back because as [...]
