You know football is back when you look at the heart rate monitor and see that because of your elevated beats per minute, you've been fat burning on a Monday night from about 9pm onwards, despite sitting on your sofa. Specifically, you know you're an Arsenal fan who knows that football is back because as [...]

So we're on a countdown now until our next pre season friendly on Saturday night at 10pm UK time and, if we're all honest, this one feels like it's REALLY kicking it up a notch, am I right? That's because it's Man United in New York and it represents an opportunity to see where we [...]

Back in Blighty today and back to the usual routine, following a few days of French boozing and stocking up on the vino, and it appears all the talk is about contracts. Saka is set to be announced soon according to Fabrizio Romano and at this stage you have to conclude they are just waiting [...]

Gutsy Arsenal keep the pressure on with Newcastle win

When this season is finished and we all start to assess how it has gone, there will be loads of really positive things to say about Mikel Arteta’s side. Sure, we’ll probably have some regrets like the Everton game away, or that we didn’t make more of the Southampton at home (and away too, probably) [...]

Arsenal hold serve against woeful Chelsea

Pre game yesterday the nerves had returned. I was in the pub talking to the lads and I had the not-very-nice feeling that there could be a banana skin being placed before us in the shape of Chelsea. They had some injuries, they were woefully out of form, they had a manager in Frank Lampard who clearly [...]

Odegaard escapes – now to get Saka, Ramsdale and Zinchenko back in tact

Without having any kind of official confirmation from the club it is impossible to say if we've made it through 'round three' of the 'pray no Arsenal players get injured on international duty' roulette. But it sounds - on the face of it - like everyone has made it through without any massive injuries or [...]

Round one of ‘Arsenal international damage report’ complete

This is the worst part of the international break. It really is - as Arseblog puts it - the 'Interlull'. Eng-ger-land might have played yesterday, Harry Kane might have got himself another individual accolade in a team sport (well done Harry, hope you keep up your record in cup competitions too), but frankly I couldn't give [...]
