Rotation, rotation, rotation – some thoughts on Arsenal in the next 10 days

Nothing like a bit of intermittent internet problems to start off ones day, eh? It’s amazing how reliant we are on these little black/white boxes that pump invisible connectivity to all parts of our houses and when that goes temporarily we feel lost and bereft. So it’s a bit of old school blogging from my [...]

Arsenal’s creativity and end product see off Leeds

It is funny how the end result often makes such a dramatic impact on how you feel about a game. Because when the final whistle went I felt relief at fact we'd managed to hold on. Having been in the ground on that infamous day at St James' Park in which we drew 4-4 having [...]

Momentum, injuries and Balogun – a few Arteta press conference thoughts

Morning folks, hope you're all good, albeit rather chilly if you're in the UK like I am. My soft desk-jockey exterior wasn't cut out for anything other than mild incremental weather and so the fact that it is in the minus here in London isn't exactly conducive to me being at my most productive. So [...]

Arsenal and injuries: we can’t have nice things

By |2021-02-12T07:53:45+00:00February 12th, 2021|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Manager, injuries, midfield, Mikel Arteta, premier league, Rant|0 Comments

Ahh balls. Big sh*tty balls. Thomas Partey has a hamstring strain. Are we not allowed nice things? Is that what it is? Isn't it the most Arsenal thing ever to sign a player with no history of injury (I sent the link around of his record on Transfermarkt record after the Tottenham game and on [...]

A defining two weeks for Mikel Arteta and Arsenal

Howdy howdy party people and here we are at Wednesday. Just a few more days until the weekend but we have to wait until Sunday for the 4.30pm kick off before we play our match against Leeds. Man that feels like a long way away. Having been playing every few days since the beginning of [...]

Saliba situation could spell more work for Arsenal in the summer

Happy Tuesday folks. Well, as happy as it can be when you're locked away at home under lockdown, or a variant of depending on where you live, with Arsenal also losing games adding to the general malaise. And drama. Let's not forget drama, because it doesn't seem to be a day going by without there [...]

Referees old clowns network has to go

I didn't blog yesterday on account of a bit of a stinking hangover, but also I didn't really have much motivation after that disappointing performance against Aston Villa on Saturday lunchtime. I did however put the football on whilst I was cooking yesterday, so was able to see Liverpool get utterly beat up against a [...]

Can Arsenal contain Wolves’ threat out wide?

Wellety, wellety, wellety, if there hasn't been one heck of a clear out at Arsenal this January, eh? I know there are a fair few loan deals that went out the door this January, which means we still have some futures to sort in the summer, but given where we were at the end of [...]

Arsenal hold the transfer cards; maybe a start for Odegaard?

Morning folks. Another Monday comes rolling around but unlike most Monday's, this one has the hyperbole of being labelled 'Transfer Deadline Day', which means Sky Sports go nuts all wearing silly yellow ties and dresses, they talk a little faster on Sky Sports News, they inject some kind of faux urgency into a day that is [...]

Arsenal need to rope-a-Man-United-dope to win today

Morning folks. Hope you're all fine and dandy. I was woken up at 5am thanks to the Velux windows in the bedroom and the incessant rain that was smashing down. So I thought I might as well get up. I was in a bit of a daze for five minutes and almost forgot that there [...]
