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 [...]

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 [...]

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 [...]

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, [...]

Arsenal players getting recognised is a nice and new feeling

Happy Thursday Gooners - we holding up ok? I say that because, let's face it, this is just about the worst time in an international break; we're now a solid four days from the brilliant late United winner, the content that we have been gorging ourselves on is starting to run out, with the upcoming [...]

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 [...]

The unpredictability of the Arsenal family

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 [...]
