Morning campers, how we all doing? The Premier League is now underway and last night we got ourselves our first glimpses of a Liverpool team that, as I put out on social media a week ago, I really hope defend like that all season. Sure, they still won and grabbed a last minute winner(s) which [...]
Well now, that was more like it, eh? Arsenal’s final pre season friendly of this summer ended with a pretty emphatic 3-0 win against a Champions League Athletic Bilbao, with boxes ticked all over the shop, including: Big Gabby returning to start Calafiori on the pitch for valuable minutes Timber shaking off his knock and [...]
It's another friendly match day today for The Arsenal and I'm intrigued to see how we line up tonight against Villareal. Will we see a pretty much first team rock up against the Spanish side? Or will it be a blended side from the start like in the Asian tour? equally, will we have a [...]
It's a weird match day of sorts, because technically it's a North London Derby day but in reality, this has none of the usual jeopardy that comes with that most wretched of fixtures. So I don't really know how I feel about it. It's because of that lack of jeopardy that I am trying to [...]
We finally got the announcement on Christian Mosquera yesterday and as usual it was accompanied by a pretty swish intro video that had all the hallmarks of the Arsenal social media team. Nicely put together, he said the right things and by all accounts this looks and feels like a very good an sensible signing. [...]
It's a new week, the lads are in Singapore, Mikel Arteta has had a press conference and by all accounts, he seemed in good spirits. He talked about a whole manner of things - not Gyokeres by name though - and given what he said and the way he said it, it's clear that we [...]
I don't really understand why battle lines need to be drawn amongst the Arsenal fanbase online, I have to say, with regards to this Sesko/Gyokeres saga. I've seen people getting really quite pissy over the fact that Sesko will most probably not be 'the guy' and that he'll probably be plying his trade elsewhere either [...]
Well now, it's all kicking off in the Arsenal universe, eh? Yesterday we got the official confirmation of Martin Zubimendi's arrival from Real Sociedad, with the first pictures of him in next season's kit, then later in the day there was talk of the striker situation finally nearing a conclusion. Thankfully. Let's start with the [...]
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 [...]
I know, I know, kind of an obvious headline for today's return to blogging from me, as I get back into the swing of it from Portugal. I boldly made the assumption based on previous years that when I come back from Portugal there'd be a shiny new signing confirmed, but sadly my good luck [...]
