Here we are folks, it's a lovely day in London (albeit a little chilly), that most sacred of things in the shape of a 3pm kick off and I'm bringing The Management along to the game today in the seat next to me. As a hopefully advantageous twist of fate, the last time she rocked [...]

Arsenal’s ‘dark arts’ talk is a media concoction to sell a product

Morning folks, how we all doing? First things first, congrats to the Arsenal Women who yesterday overcame their first-leg 1-0 defeat to Hacken to win 4-0 and secure Champions League football this season. No more painful memories of last season and Eidevall also referenced that the squad has been built for Champions League football, so [...]

Morning folks and welcome to Monday. I was hanging quite a bit yesterday, so couldn't face a computer screen, but I did eventually get around to looking at my phone and saw that David Ornstein had confirmed that Saliba had all but signed up on a four year deal to stay at the club. It's [...]

Start fast and hopefully quieten West Ham down

Ahh man am I hungover. Started off with a stein at lunchtime and it slowly descended from there. So I’m feeling a bit fragile this morning. Don’t make my day worse Arsenal, please, I’m begging you. City made light work of Leicester City as we thought and so it means that if we want to [...]

The easiest 1-0 Arsenal ever had

That win against Leicester yesterday felt like one of the most dominant 1-0 victories you are ever likely to witness. If you just look at it from a scoreline perspective you'd probably think that it was a gritty, nervy, hard-fought and difficult win away from home, grinding out the three points and getting the hell [...]

Speculating on why Tielemans hasn’t moved yet

Welcome to Wednesday people. How we all getting on? In the UK we've got the August bank holiday looming on the horizon this weekend and that is something to be very happy about, but so is the end of the transfer window, if I'm completely honest, because that'll happen next week and we'll know exactly [...]

Raphinha is surely a ‘no’, as is low ball Torreira bids

Morning campers, you all doing well? How are there STILL international fixtures going on? What is the ridiculousness? I thought there was only going to be a couple but England play again tomorrow, which means there's been like four matches in just over a couple of weeks. WHY ON EARTH ARE WE STILL PLAYING THESE [...]

Is Lacazette the false nine when we already have a nine on the pitch?

By |2021-11-01T08:11:18+00:00November 1st, 2021|Arsenal, Attack, Formation, Mikel Arteta, Tactics|2 Comments

Yesterday morning I went out for my morning run in the pouring rain of Northumberland and I was listening to a post match podcast, which triggered some thoughts in me about Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. The thoughts revolved around the fact people are talking about us playing 4-4-2 and also trying to work out [...]

Ramsdale heroics underline Arsenal’s credentials

What a performance that was yesterday, eh? On Friday night week before last we were worried about whether this team would be able to sustain the momentum of the streak we were on. An unconvincing draw with Palace (who, despite the fact they played City with 10 men for a whole half, still picked up [...]
