Could Zubimendi be great for Odegaard?

If you're inclined to believe some of the noises that were emerging yesterday from some of the more well-informed ITKs, then today is Zubi Day, with the club set to announce the Spaniard as their latest signing from Real Sociedad. It makes sense, really, after they made a fairly significant announcement on the women's side [...]

Norgaard makes sense on every level for Arsenal

By |2025-07-05T09:33:32+01:00June 26th, 2025|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, gooners, Gunners, midfield, Transfers|0 Comments

Greetings from Porto! This week I’ve been road tripping through Portugal and today we’re off to the Douro valley for loads of wine and hopefully sunshine, but I wanted to check in because as we all know, yesterday it appears that there were market movements for Brentford’s captain Christian Norgaard. I wrote it on social [...]

Arsenal’s rapid Zubimendi pursuit is welcome

By |2025-05-29T07:59:39+01:00May 29th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, midfield, Mikel Arteta, Transfers|0 Comments

Here was me getting all hot under the collar over Gyokeres and Sesko yesterday, whilst all along Arsenal were making their moves for a certain Martin Zubimendi behind closed doors. I should start talking about left backs. Maybe that'll be enough reverse-jinx for us to do a striker deal in the next 48 hours... The [...]

The North London Derby doesn’t need a trigger-happy referee

Here we go folks, strap yerselves in, because we're now on the countdown the North London Derby and that means any of the football media outlets you usually tune in to will be awash with COMBINED NORTH LONDON DERBY XI'S, ex-players talking about how this is 'make or break' for both teams, discussions around why [...]

Arteta all but confirms ESR’s exit, but does it lead to some amortisation goodness?

Happy Friday folks. For me it's a Friday in which I am slightly worse for wear, on account of going to Wembley Stadium to see The Boss (not Mikel) bust out his tunes, so naturally I had a few beers whilst listening to Bruce Springsteen. I gotta tell you, felt a little weird being in [...]

The timely re-integration of Thomas Partey?

With Mikel Arteta not doing his press conference until tomorrow lunchtime, it's up to us to start doing ALL THE SPECULATIONS on the game we have on Sunday, which was of course ably delivered on the Same Old Arsenal Podcast with the two James' last night. James J went for a 1-0 scraper and I [...]

Arsenal need to beware the aerials against Sevilla

I think tonight might be a little trickier than some people might think. Going away to Sevilla and getting the result was good, but for some it might add a false sense of security on the outcome of tonight's match, particularly given our injury problems as it stands. No Timber, no Partey, no Smith Rowe, [...]

Can’t see Arteta wanting to stop the Partey

By |2023-06-14T07:45:48+01:00June 14th, 2023|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, midfield, Mikel Arteta, pre season|2 Comments

I see that there are a few noises out there today (and last night) about us potentially using this summer as the opportunity to perhaps cash in on Thomas Partey, with apparent interest from Italy coming a few clubs, if you are to believe what is being sounded out online. And with this one I'm [...]

It may be Tuesday, it may be three days since the North London Derby, but I'm still soaking up all of the #content I can find. I've been playing the Peter Drury commentary of the goals and the full time whistle this morning. Google  it or search for it on twitter, you'll find it and [...]

Villa at home: Arsenal must continue to the momentum

Morning folks and welcome to Match Day! It's the most wonderful time, of the week... But also it can be the most nail biting time of the week and what with us already losing some players to injury, the Arsenal  fanbase is going full Calculus to try to work out how we are going to [...]
