It's another home match day today and it's the visit of the Saints and Aaron Ramsdale to The Emirates at three o'clock this afternoon, as we aim to continue our form going in to the international break. Yesterday I took a look at our opponents and the type of game we're likely to face, their [...]

Mikel Arteta will take to the stage today at London Colney for his pre match presser at some stage this Friday and ahead of that I thought I'd take a look at who we're up against tomorrow, in the shape of a newly promoted Southampton side, with a very familiar face about them in between [...]

A different-look PSG rock up at The Emirates tonight

Here we go again folks - match day! This is a big one because it's PSG at home and I think I'm right in saying it is the first time we've faced PSG since they became one of the financially doped football clubs backed by an Arab state. We welcome them tonight for an 8pm [...]

Calafiori’s rumoured injury and the importance of squad depth at full back

Decided to put the United v the Scum game on last night as I was cooking a roast dinner. Kind of wish I hadn't bothered, because it was ruined by a red card that effectively stopped it being too much of a ding dong game. At first I thought Fernandez was a bit reckless with [...]

Toughest trip of the season for Arsenal, but season-defining it is not

It's the big one today. Man City away and do you know what? I'm actually not that nervous. I know that sounds weird, maybe it'll change throughout the course of today, but I kind of feel fine about whatever happens today. I suspect it's because I'm managing my own expectations; I think we might come-a-cropper [...]

Raya saves Arsenal’s blushes on an otherwise noneventful evening in Italy

That was a tough ol' watch yesterday, eh? Arsenal went to Bergamo, they played a tricky opponent with a very specific approach that is ingrained in their system; they play high-intensity, man-for-man (something Mikel reflected on afterwards in the post-match presser), looking to nullify us by winning those individual duals and hoping that we didn't [...]

How much rotation will Arsenal see tonight against Atalanta?

Morning Gooners, hope we're all pumped for the start of our Champions League campaign, eh? Tonight should be an interesting one because we've had one English team nab three points in Italy in the shape of Liverpool at Milan on Tuesday, one Italian team nab a point at the Emptihad against 115 Charges FC last [...]

Kicking of the Champions League thoughts

Tomorrow it's Atalanta in the new phase of the Champions League and for some reason unbeknownst to myself, I decided to watch Villa away to Young Boys and then Liverpool away to Milan. Well, the first half of that one, anyway. I say 'unbeknownst' mainly because watching other teams in the Champions League isn't really [...]

Arsenal NLD delight – I could get used to this

I've been listening to a song recently by Becky Hill called "I could get used to this". Three North London Derby away wins in three seasons for The Arsenal. I definitely could get used to this. I said pre game yesterday and in the days leading up to this that I hate this game in [...]
