With the international break now upon us, it feels like as Arsenal fans we really need to string out as much of the good vibes from the City win on Sunday as possible. That's certainly what I did and I've been watching videos, reading blogs and opinions from journalists and fans, plus listening to podcasts [...]
Well that was like rolling back the years last night, wasn't it? What I mean by that is that it was Arsenal back in the Champions League, the music blaring, the light show, but also, the kind of performance we used to routinely take for granted. That felt like the kind of game that we [...]
I hope like me you too are very happy to get that monkey off of our back in the shape of the Everton hoodoo. It had been on there far too long, had resulted in far too many crazy results and, up until we scored in the second half, was really starting to feel like [...]
Morning kids, we all excited for match day? I know I am! Didn't go to bed until midnight and here I am at 6.30am wide awake. There's something very special about the first game of the season when it's a homer. Everything is new, hope has been renewed, the bad tastes of last season (unless [...]
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 [...]
In my work life I have to podcast. It is not as much fun as talking about The Arsenal but I do enjoy it. So when you have to record a podcast and you've lost your voice, it really does throw a spanner in the works. Anyhoo, back to The Arsenal, who were generous enough [...]
Cor blimey I had a skin-full last night. Eurovision virtual party with the family and I decided the only way to get through it is to drink so much booze that walking upstairs to bed felt like a pilgrimage. **Makes noise like Sideshow Bob when he steps on all those rakes in The Simpsons** I [...]
Morning folks. How we all doing? Nervous anticipation ahead of Sunday? Or like me are you just nervous? There will be a press conference today from Mikel Arteta, in which we'll get an update on player availability, with the likelihood of confirmation being that Saliba is out for the weekend. I said my bit on [...]
Ahh man am I hungover. I got to Highbury & Islington tube station at around 12.35 - about an hour earlier than I normally do - so I could watch the City versus Liverpool game. What a waste of time that was. I hope the Scousers are that rubbish when they play us, although I [...]
Well now, I must confess, I didn't expect to get such a comfortable afternoon for the Arsenal players in West London yesterday, that's for sure. Fulham were a side difficult to play against, especially on their own ground, with a week off and us having travelled to Portugal to play midweek too. This felt like [...]
