An Un-Arteta-like performance, but grinding out a win can’t be sniffed at

There's two things you absolutely cannot do in life: Look a gift horse in the mouth Scoff at three points at Old Trafford There's plenty of time for us to all look at the performance, the individual clunkiness of some of the players and the fact that this felt like a very 'Un-Arteta'-like Arsenal performance, [...]

Arteta’s options show our strength – we need to prove it against Man United

Here we are folks - it's match day! And what a start we have to it, eh? United away. I know they won't be the force of 20 years ago, or even five years ago, but this is still Man United and it's still a place that hasn't been a happy hunting ground for us [...]

The pressers are done, so what have we learned from Arteta and Amorim?

Morning campers, how we all doing? The Premier League is now underway and last night we got ourselves our first glimpses of a Liverpool team that, as I put out on social media a week ago, I really hope defend like that all season. Sure, they still won and grabbed a last minute winner(s) which [...]

What’s the opposition and pundits view of Arsenal this weekend then?

Here we go folks. The Premier League all kicks off this evening with the Scousers beating Bournemouth at home as they get a relatively comfortable home game to get themselves going. Us? Well, we know we have to wait and we know we have to play Man United at their gaff knowing all of the [...]

Looking over at other clubs’ gardens

Ok, I just want the season up and running now, as I'm becoming a bit impatient and I'm needing to not have the 'feelings' that I've got. Those 'feelings' are the ones that are irrational and based on the fact that because nobody has really kicked a ball in anger yet, every other team has [...]

How much stock to take in other teams’ friendlies?

Morning folks and welcome to Monday. I had family over and coupled that with a bit of a two-day hangover, so didn't blog this weekend, but thankfully not a lot really happened in the Arsenal world, as the players headed back to the UK and today they kick off the proper pre season prep ahead [...]

Focus on your own garden

This time of the year is always a bit funny, I find, because people lose their minds over stuff that hasn't even happened yet. But what is worse is when people lose their minds over what others are doing. I get it to a point though. Until something concrete happens with your own team, you [...]

Turgid at Old Trafford as toothless Arsenal hit another low block

At this point I'm not really sure what value the analysis will be from a game like yesterday's turgid 1-1 draw against a terrible Man United side. But I'll give it a go. Until I can't be arsed to type anything more. Let's see how it goes. Firstly that United side who, surprisingly to me [...]

Low key United-Arsenal game that we still need to probably win

It's a big one today As Arsenal face off against Manchester United in an epic top-of-the ta... ..Oh wait, it's not. I love how Sky Sports have tried their best to dress this game up as having some kind of significance, when in reality: A win for Arsenal does nothing other than keep a bit [...]

Calafiori up top isn’t the answer, movement across the whole side is

This weekend's game feels like one of the most low-key of games against United that I can remember. I've been watching Sky Sports attempt to build it up as some kind of crunch match, but I think all of us know that it really isn't anything of the sort: United have nothing to play for [...]
