Staring at the Premier League table for the permeations

Morning Gooners. Happy Tuesday to you and yours. Back from my weekend away in Munich and so I was travelling when Man United were playing Palace last night and therefore I didn't get to see the absolute car crash that was their team. Honestly, they are rudderless at the moment, lurching towards the end of [...]

Well I must admit I did not expect Everton to do us any favours yesterday, so didn't bother watching the game between them and Liverpool at Goodison. It helped I was out for dinner with friends, I'll admit, but when I asked the Management to check her phone for the score (superstitious fan in me [...]

Arsenal PTSD

I know it's a bit of a provocative title, but sometimes needs must, boys and girls, because it just feels like where I'm at right now. It's now two days since we lost to Villa and that sobering and numbing feeling from that defeat is still gnawing away me. This wasn't where we were supposed [...]

Emery out-tactico’s Arteta to leave title talk for Arsenal shelved

Yesterday was not a fun day. Yesterday a big chunk of hope that we might end the wait for a league title crumbled away. Yes, we are just two points off Man City and yes, there are a few games left still to play, but we aren't up against any other team. We all know [...]

Prepping for Bayern whilst admiring the Premier League table

Morning folks and happy Monday to you and yours. We got an unexpected bit of good news yesterday, didn't we, eh? Honestly when I saw Liverpool go one up in the first half against an injury-hit and out of form Man United, I was tempted to just turn the TV off and go and do [...]

As expected – the stalemate that suits The Arsenal

As I and many others predicted in the build up to this match, there would be no basketball-style game, leading to goals galore. Instead, this was every bit the chess match, played between two teams who are stylistically even matched and two managers who follow similar footballing philosophies. There was the inevitable chiding online from [...]

Cagey chess match football: City v Arsenal preview

It’s the big one today and, as I suspected but didn’t say, the butterflies and nerves for this game against City later on are starting to kick in. Arsenal travel to Manchester trying to do something we haven’t managed to do in nine previous attempts in all competitions. You have to go back eight years [...]

Arteta is feeling the training ground buzz ahead of the Etihad trip

I never normally watch the opposition match press conference, but given the build up to this massive game tomorrow and given how significant it could impact both City and Arsenal's season, I thought I'd have a little sneak peak at pep's comments in his presser. Obviously I was also intrigued on how he delivered news [...]

Patiently waiting and hoping for a clean Arsenal bill of health

So, we're done with this frigging pointless friendlies and, as suspected Gareth Southgate kept Declan Rice on the pitch for the full 96 minutes last night. I flicked on and awatched about 10 minutes of the first half as I was cooking to see Pickford have a howler, then I heard about Lewis Dunk's howler, [...]
