Well, here I am coming to you from a very sunny Portugal folks, which can only mean one thing: Arsenal transfer signings are going to start happening. Don't ask me how, don't ask me why, it just is a 'thing', going back to when we signed Per Mertesacker and Mikel Arteta in 2011. This is [...]

Reason’s for optimism on Rice

Morning Gooners and welcome to Friday. How we all holding up? Ok? Obviously if you're a social media obsessive like me then you'll have seen the noises last night from Di Marzio that Rice is getting closer to agreeing to sign to Man City. I believe he's pretty reliable and if these noises are true [...]

Well, it seems like it's happening and yesterday there was yet more confirmation, that Kai Havertz will be an Arsenal player. And so my narrative and mindset has to shift from the "WHY?!?" to "Come on Kai!", as the second he dons that Arsenal shirt then I am looking at how we can get the [...]

Lavia links make a lotta sense

This might be a short one today, on account of the fact that there really is bugger all happening in the world of Arsenal right now. Well, I’m sure that’s not strictly true, because I’m sure Edu, Richard Garlick and the other back office staff who deal with contracts and transfers are doing something, but [...]

Havertzing a laugh?

As the old cliche goes: football is a game of opinions. And this blog is my opinion. Often misinformed, regularly incorrect, sometimes just plain wrong. But it is opinions nonetheless and that's what it'll always be. That caveat out the way, let's get in to the big breaking news yesterday, delivered to us in the [...]

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 [...]

Do Arsenal really need another striker?

There's not many of you who will probably know this, but on my Dad's side of the family there is an army of West Ham fans, with my Dad having been brought up in Stratford and his family all dating back to Whitechapel and the surrounding areas of East London. My brother chose to support [...]

Smith Rowe is a no-go

When David Ornstein dropped his latest Ornbomb (see below) about how Arsenal had no intention of selling Emile Smith Rowe this summer, there were a fair few members of the online community that I follow who expressed a wee bit of surprise. Positive surprise, but surprise nonetheless. He's a popular player, he's one of our [...]

The fitting send off as Arsenal smash Wolves

In yesterday's blog I wrote about how I wanted Arsenal to lay down a marker in anticipation for next season. I referenced the first win of the Invincibles run, which was an end of season 6-1 hammering of Southampton and I said that I hoped that the lads would go out there and deliver a [...]

Make this Wolves game the start of something special for next season

Here we are folks - the final match day of the 2022/23 season. The expectations pivoted at some point from 'just get the Champions League spot' to 'become champions' and as such, today feels like a slightly sadder day than I was hoping it would be. But it is going to be a gloriously sunny [...]
