Arsenal must turn in to the hunters rather than the hunted this season

I watched almost all of the Liverpool v Man City game in a state of shock and surprise. You could see the visible embodiment of confidence and a lack thereof with the two teams on display. For that first half Liverpool completely dominated City, who looked shell-shocked, with some of the stats that popped up [...]

Havertz has a knock, but hopefully it won’t stop him from bagging 20 goals this season

Well, well, well, it's all kicking off in the Premier League courtroom now, isn't it? Yesterday as I was about to start cooking dinner after work I did my usual switch on of the TV in the kitchen, to see that the first skirmish between the Premier League and 115 Charges FC has concluded, with [...]

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 [...]

Arteta needs to think carefully about who is risked tomorrow evening

Morning folks, how we all doing this Tuesday? A lot better than 115 Charges FC, it appears, as they now have the utterly scandalous situation of playing Watford this evening at home, just 48 hours after playing us (which they were at home) on Sunday, as well as having played Inter (which was at home) [...]

Battling point for Arsenal that I’d have taken pre game

If you'd have offered me a Desmond 2-2 in the morning yesterday when I was writing my pre match thoughts, I'd have bitten your hands off. If you'd have told me that Arsenal would get back in the game after the first 10 - 15 minutes of yesterday's game at the soulless Etihad I'd have [...]

Toughest trip of the season for Arsenal, but season-defining it is not

It's the big one today. Man City away and do you know what? I'm actually not that nervous. I know that sounds weird, maybe it'll change throughout the course of today, but I kind of feel fine about whatever happens today. I suspect it's because I'm managing my own expectations; I think we might come-a-cropper [...]

Pep and Arteta have their say on each other and the fixture schedule

Happy Saturday peeps. How we all doing? I drank a bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon to myself last night, whilst making and then consuming a chilli con carne, listening and watching the two respective managers talk about the game on Sunday. Firstly, Sky Sports were all over Pep, featuring him again and again and some of [...]

Meticulous Arteta will have little time for analysis this week

Whilst basking in a North London Derby victory is plenty of fun and I intend on doing it a bit more today, there's no rest for the wicked this week, with Atalanta on Thursday and so probably Mikel and the team leaving for Italy either later today or first thing tomorrow. I wonder if they [...]

Contextualising Arsenal’s difficult start to the season

By |2024-09-02T09:18:26+01:00September 2nd, 2024|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, gooners, Gunners, History, premier league|0 Comments

Morning folks. How we all doing on this Monday morning? Still reeling from the weekend? At least the defeat by The Scum and humbling United took gives a little crumb of humour to proceedings. When you can't revel in your own glory, do it in the failings of others, eh? What that does do after [...]
