Raya has his moment, but Odegaard also shines against Porto
"Late one last night, was it?" "You could say that" The words this morning from the Management when she got up this morning; I'd come crashing through the door at after 12am and slunk straight in to bed. It was flipping worth it though. My, wasn't it worth it, eh? Arsenal are in to the [...]

The goals WILL come for Arsenal – here’s why…
Today we'll have Mikel Arteta's press conference ahead of the Liverpool game and he'll be asked about the game, injury updates, but also about the current profligacy in front of goal and how he overcomes it. My hope is that with a glint in his eye he comes out swinging. My hope is that he [...]

Good for Martin, bad for Jesus, terrible from PGMOL
Morning folks and welcome to Tuesday, which will probably be the last of the regularly released rambling utterances from yours truly on here, because in about 13 hours from writing this I'm off to New Zealand for a few weeks. I'll try to get a few blogs and thoughts penned in during that time, but [...]

The importance of Odegaard and Jesus
Turns out that going Invincible isn't for everyone, eh? Well, if you're going to play that high a line against any Premier League side whilst down to ten men, then you absolutely get what you deserve. But I'll speak no more about them today I think, instead reflecting on what it means for us, because [...]

Saka is bullish on his availability, but that still won’t stop us worrying
Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard were yesterday confirmed as being two of the top 'something-or-other' on the Balloon D'or awards yesterday, with the competition once again being won by Messi in what is football's biggest popularity contest. I'm pleased for Bukayo and Martin to get the accolades for their performance, but the competition in itself [...]

Controlled Arsenal batter Bournemouth
For me personally yesterday was almost the most perfect sporting day I could have hoped for. First and foremost, which will take up the bulk of today's blog for obvious reasons, was the 4-0 away win over Bournemouth that Arsenal delivered to us on that most precious of things: A Saturday 3pm kick off. But [...]

Odegaard signs up as Arteta’s project gets more longevity
I had a stinking hangover yesterday after a company all-day conference on Thursday and so wasn't quite in the right frame of mind to do anything, let alone blog, but I'm back and feeling refershed this morning and what a good job too, because there is so much to talk about ahead of the North [...]

Arsenal roll back the years in routine Champions League opener
Well that was like rolling back the years last night, wasn't it? What I mean by that is that it was Arsenal back in the Champions League, the music blaring, the light show, but also, the kind of performance we used to routinely take for granted. That felt like the kind of game that we [...]

Odegaard’s new deal is another ‘essential’ for The Arsenal
Morning folks, hope we're all good? I've woken up this morning feeling mega fatigued. It's probably wine-induced, coupled with doing very little this weekend other than sitting in the paddling pool, so my body feels as though it has been set a precedent where anything else other than horizontal living in the sun is acceptable, [...]
