Flo to go but at least Gabby J is back

Well now, it seems to be some movement going on at London Colney, as we reach the 'one week and counting' part of the summer transfer window. It is the curse - or gift depending on how you see it - of this blogger that I spent half an hour yesterday writing about how we [...]

FFP: Farcically Foul Play

Yo yo Gooners, y'alreet? Just getting in to the lingo for KT's move to Newcastle, as apparently they're 'back in the hunt' for the full back. The supposed reason they haven't already gone in for him - given they are looking at signing a left back - is that they want to ensure they are [...]

Arteta keeping everyone second-guessing

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 [...]

Sorting the Tierney situation won’t be easy

Happy Wednesday Gooners. The sun looks like it might make an appearance here in London, which ideally i'd wish it'd save itself for the weekend so i can be in the Emirates with the big ball of fire smiling back at me, but you can't have everything in life I guess. And clearly that's the [...]

Edu needs to get a wriggle on with outgoings

They finally unveiled the Arsene Wenger statue yesterday. It's a three-and-a-half metre tall bronzed statue with Arsene lifting the Premier League trophy and, I have to say, enough time has passed for me to be appreciating and thanking the man who brought so much joy to our lives. Three Premier League titles and countless FA [...]

Does Zinchenko’s absence force tactical changes for Forest at home in three weeks?

Morning Gooners, how we all doing? Been away from the blog for the last two days on account of a case of food poisoning that I got from a restaurant in London Waterloo on Saturday night. Wiped me out for two days but ready and rocking after what it feels like some mammoth sleeps and [...]

Does the Saliba situation and the ‘Holding System’ mean a ‘Hail Mary’ is needed?

The all but official confirmation yesterday that Saliba would certainly miss tomorrow's game at the Etihad yesterday, sent a wave of Arsenal fans - your humble narrator included - into a wave of 'formation and play permutation bingo' and, I'll be honest, none of it was particularly palatable. We all know the issues of late; [...]

Show you want to be champions: beat the Saints, Arsenal

It’s match day tonight and, I’ll be completely honest with you not only am I worried that we might not deliver the kind of assured performance of a team that sits top of the league, but I’m also slightly concerned about our season longer term. That’s because Arteta had his press conference yesterday and confirmed [...]

Saliba injury forcing us to think ahead to that City game

Morning folks. Yesterday I put a tweet out about how I'd almost forgotten how rubbish Monday's are after a disappointing performance from Arsenal. We've been that good all season that out of the 28 or 29 match weeks (I know we are on game 31 but there have been midweek Premier League matches so sometimes [...]
