Morning all. It's Friday and I'm still irked about what happened on Tuesday night. What about you? I suppose some of that also has to do with the fact that yesterday early evening the FA released a statement to say that David Luiz's appeal for his red card was ignored. I don't think any of [...]

Taking a point and keeping the run: Arsenal and United share the spoils

You can't win 'em all. Sometimes you have to accept that and yesterday's draw against United, whilst being at home, was definitely one that I'd say "I'll take that" given the circumstances. And those circumstances were that we had a number of injuries, we faced a side who have picked up lots of points and [...]

Arsenal must exploit Southampton’s full backs tonight

A match day and a potential signing you say? Yep, we should get the official confirmation on Odergaard today and apologies if I spend the next six months not putting the diagonal line through his name, but in many ways I am a lazy man and given it is not right in front of me [...]

Arsenal must be quicker in possession against Newcastle

As the saga I spoke about rumbles further on with pictures and the like coming out yesterday early evening, mercifully we have something else to focus on, which is an important game at home to Newcastle United tonight. It's a game that if I'm completely honest with you about, I'm not exactly massively confident about. [...]

Smith-Rowe and Tierney the difference makers against Newcastle in the cup

By |2021-01-10T09:30:30+00:00January 10th, 2021|Arsenal FC, Attack, Defence, FA Cup, gooners, Gunners, Match Review|0 Comments

A win is a win is a win. Am I right? Arsenal got that win - their fourth in a row - courtesy of a superb Emile Smith-Rowe finish and then a much needed Aubameyang goal in extra time, but whilst we can all agree that was a laboured performance last night, what I think [...]

Arsenal’s youthful energy secures the points at home to Chelsea

Holy moly I’d forgotten just how good winning feels like. having spent the last three months watching Arsenal lurch from one defeat to the next, it felt like this barren run of dreadful performances was going to go on forever, but last night we were treated to a totally different Arsenal performance to the ones [...]

A left back problem developing for Arteta for this next week

Another one bites the dust. Yep, there's another Arsenal player who will be missing from the ability to be selected this weekend when we play Leeds on Sunday and that player is Sead Kolasinac, who tested positive for COVID-19 after travelling and playing for Bosnia in this latest round of pointless and utterly stupid international [...]

Changing Arsenal’s front three and letting go of the reins a little

Morning y'all and happy Tuesday unto thee. I'm playing Lockdown2 countdown at the moment by visiting my local watering holes in the evening and sampling the amber nectar they have on display. It's not that I particularly need to be having a beer every night, but when that smooth taste of a draught of beer is [...]

Partey to be ‘unshackled’ against City tomorrow?

By |2020-10-16T08:01:15+01:00October 16th, 2020|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Manager, Mikel Arteta, premier league, press conference|0 Comments

Morning all, happy Friday and a big 'hooray!' to the fact that the international break is behind us, most certainly confirmed by the pre-match presser that Arteta did via Zoom yesterday. I have to say kudos to the man himself because, if I was in his position, I'd be pretty livid at the farcical fact [...]
