Morning folks and happy Monday unto thee. Yesterday I was in a pretty bad way, I will admit to you now, which is why I couldn't face a computer screen and in reality just went from bed to sofa and then back again at the end of the day. It was all completely self inflicted [...]
Morning folks and welcome to matchday! It's the most wonderful time of the week.....maybe... ;-) It's a trip to Brighton for Arteta and the lads and I must tell you, I'm quite nervous about this game, which I take a good thing because it means that some of the apathy i've felt in recent years [...]
Press conference day was yesterday which I am assuming means the team will travel down to the south coast today. Maybe they'll take in the Pier or even get an ice cream or two, although with the weather as it is at the moment, it'll make for the quintessential British day out on the beach. [...]
Sometimes football is just hella fun, isn't it? I am here on this Monday morning thinking about how much I enjoy football. You? It's funny what a difference a day makes. This time yesterday I was tapping away at my laptop, nervously awaiting the impending North London Derby and the potential that we could come-a-cropper [...]
It's started already. As I tap away at my Macbook the time has only just ticked over to 8am in the morning and I'm already feeling those North London Derby day butterflies. The visit of the Scum at the carpet later on this afternoon and I'm already a bit of a nervous wreck. I don't [...]
Arteta did his press conference yesterday and as you'd probably expect, he gave nothing away when asked about who will start tomorrow - despite many attempts at probing! He was asked about who starts in goal on Sunday. Nothing. He was asked about who plays up front and if Lacazette's future is an issue. Nothing. [...]
morning folks and welcome to the end of the working week (for me at least), and the start of the weekend, the most nervy of weekends in the Arsenal football calendar. Well, when the fixtures come out, that is. Why is this so? Well to me I know we have a pretty crap record at [...]
I really want to delve in to some of Mikel Arteta's comments from the interview on the website that I saw yesterday, because he talked in a little more detail than we're used to, about the pressing of the team and ensuring that the lines between the players is a little narrower and more [...]
There are some universal truths in life: death, taxes and Burnley fans booing something an opposition player does even though he was in fact probably fouled. And Burnley's fans are the booiest fans you'll ever see. If there was a sweepstake on the first minute at which the Burnley fans would boo Arsenal today, I [...]
Mikel had his pre-Burnley press conference yesterday and as is the way these days, he said some things that I'll be darned if I don't end up getting excited when I hear him talk. I know football is about what is on the pitch, I know that the football has not been great for a [...]
