Morning folks, how we all doing? I didn't get around to penning any thoughts yesterday about the game, on account of the stinking hangover, followed by having the parents over and then trying to trudge my way around a golf course first thing yesterday, so I thought today I'd reflect a little on the weekend's [...]

A nice little cup in the sunshine for The Arsenal

Morning all - how we all doing after yesterday's late Community Shield drama, eh? I thought it was a very interesting display in the end; plenty for us to chew over and whilst it wasn't exactly a barnstorming game, it was a fascinating one that will have had all of the tacticos salivating over two teams [...]

Well it seems - if ol' Romano is to be believed, that the Raya deal edges closer. I will still maintain that I'm not sure it is the move for us; he's a good 'keeper but no better than Ramsdale in my opinion, Brentford want too much money for a guy with one year left [...]

Impressive and intense Arsenal show the strength of the squad against Barca

This is probably the weirdest post match blog I've ever written. Weird in the fact that at the time of writing, the friendly game in LA against Barcelona only finished about an hour ago and because I was in bed for the actual game (It's a school night for me, kids), it feels a little [...]

How does Havertz impact Smith Rowe next season?

Morning folks. We all good? Mikel Arteta has been chatting to Marca and in the interview as you'd expect, he didn't give too much away in terms of potential signings, but with the Havertz stuff he did give the clearest indication you're going to get with a player as he admitted that 'talent has a [...]

Rationalising the Havertz move to Arsenal

Well, it seems like it's happening and yesterday there was yet more confirmation, that Kai Havertz will be an Arsenal player. And so my narrative and mindset has to shift from the "WHY?!?" to "Come on Kai!", as the second he dons that Arsenal shirt then I am looking at how we can get the [...]

Havertzing a laugh?

As the old cliche goes: football is a game of opinions. And this blog is my opinion. Often misinformed, regularly incorrect, sometimes just plain wrong. But it is opinions nonetheless and that's what it'll always be. That caveat out the way, let's get in to the big breaking news yesterday, delivered to us in the [...]
