Momentum, injuries and Balogun – a few Arteta press conference thoughts

Morning folks, hope you're all good, albeit rather chilly if you're in the UK like I am. My soft desk-jockey exterior wasn't cut out for anything other than mild incremental weather and so the fact that it is in the minus here in London isn't exactly conducive to me being at my most productive. So [...]

Arsenal and injuries: we can’t have nice things

By |2021-02-12T07:53:45+00:00February 12th, 2021|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Manager, injuries, midfield, Mikel Arteta, premier league, Rant|0 Comments

Ahh balls. Big sh*tty balls. Thomas Partey has a hamstring strain. Are we not allowed nice things? Is that what it is? Isn't it the most Arsenal thing ever to sign a player with no history of injury (I sent the link around of his record on Transfermarkt record after the Tottenham game and on [...]

Saliba situation could spell more work for Arsenal in the summer

Happy Tuesday folks. Well, as happy as it can be when you're locked away at home under lockdown, or a variant of depending on where you live, with Arsenal also losing games adding to the general malaise. And drama. Let's not forget drama, because it doesn't seem to be a day going by without there [...]

Pepe’s idiocy costs Arsenal against Leeds

By |2020-11-23T07:59:40+00:00November 23rd, 2020|Arsenal FC, Defence, gooners, Gunners, Match Review, Mikel Arteta, premier league|0 Comments

The only place to start this morning is at the beginning of the second half yesterday against Leeds, because the idiotic actions of Nicolas Pepe and his headbutt to get himself sent off was a pivotal moment that cost Arsenal, or certainly could have done, had we not been able to muster a decent enough [...]

Arteta needs to inject pace into Arsenal attack against Leeds

I believe I have some very real fears and trepidation about today’s game at Elland Road. The preparation the Arsenal players have had in the build up to this hasn’t been ideal, with injuries, COVID and the form of some of our players, plus I have some bad memories of defeats going up there I [...]

Arteta’s not had the luck, but he isn’t letting that get to him

By |2020-11-21T08:41:31+00:00November 21st, 2020|Arsenal, Arsenal Manager, injuries, Internationals, Mikel Arteta, premier league, press conference|0 Comments

Well here we are, back to the proper football weekend's, which also means some words of wisdom from our young manager. Mikel Arteta had his press conference yesterday and talked about the proposed bust up of Luiz and Ceballos, the international breaks, as well as team news ahead of the weekend as we show down [...]

Spikiness in Arsenal training is good for me

Morning folks, how goes it? Hope you're all doing well? The Management has COVID so I'm in isolation until the end of the UK isolation, which kind of sucks because I won't get to do any exercise - something that has been really beneficial for me during this weird ol' year, but hey ho. Them's [...]

A left back problem developing for Arteta for this next week

By |2020-11-19T08:04:08+00:00November 19th, 2020|Arsenal FC, injuries, Internationals, Mikel Arteta, premier league, Rant|0 Comments

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 [...]

How Arsenal move the ball quicker from back to front

If ever you wanted an example of footballers not living in the normal world, it comes courtesy of Willian who supposedly if you read some of the stories from yesterday, decided to head off to Dubai during this international break. In normal times that'd be ok if he's been given a few days off but [...]

Partey, Xhaka and Ceballos – let’s see if that midfield trio can work

By |2020-11-16T08:23:38+00:00November 16th, 2020|Arsenal FC, Formation, injuries, midfield, Mikel Arteta, premier league, Tactics|0 Comments

Still not a lot going on in the Arsenal world today, well, other than the ladies football in which the Arsenal women drew yesterday. But I've never really been able to get myself 'in' to it to be honest. It's the same with the youth football too. I want players coming through, it is great [...]
