Forest will have ‘rope-a-dope’ eyes on The Arsenal – we have to control the narrative

With Mikel Arteta not due to have his presser ahead of the Forest game until 1.30pm today, I thought I'd go hunting around to find out a little bit about how our opponents have got on his season so far, as well as how their fans are feeling ahead of Nottingham Forest's trip to The [...]

Cash incoming for Eddie and Patino – with sell-on fees being more of a focus

You gotta hand it to ol' Fabrizio, he finds new ways to report the same stuff, eh? Yesterday evening it was that Eddie has agreed personal terms with Forest and whilst we've known this might be in the pipeline for a few days (the old 'cleared out his box at The Emirates' picture doing the [...]

Arsenal unlock stubborn Forest – eventually…

When I penned my thoughts yesterday morning about how the game would be another difficult to break down Forest side, that we’d be up against a team who wanted to rapid transition counter and a side that would want us to have the ball, I don’t think I envisioned a first half that was quite [...]

Arsenal need to banish the Forest recent history to get title talk back on track

Morning folks and back we are finally for another match day for The Arsenal. I tell you what, hasn't January felt a little sparse, eh? Owing of course to our FA Cup exit which has meant two rounds have gone on since we went out to Liverpool, we found ourselves with even more time for [...]

Can Arsenal benefit from fatigue ‘marginal gains’ in the next couple of matches?

Eugh, this is becoming intolerable now, this absence of football. I don't know why, but it feels even worse than an international break period. And there was even football on last weekend, which was supposed to at least keep me preoccupied until The Arsenal roll back in to town, but alas it has made things [...]

Timber’s season is done, Tavares’ Arsenal career is probably too

Howdy folks, how we all doing? Good? I've come down with a bloody cold, which is a bit annoying given I'm due to be flying to Berlin for a cheeky weekend away with the wife tomorrow night. Hopefully I've shifted it for tomorrow though. In the meantime, let's have a pause and a sad face [...]

Arteta keeping everyone second-guessing

Morning folks, how we all doing? I didn't get around to penning any thoughts yesterday about the game, on account of the stinking hangover, followed by having the parents over and then trying to trudge my way around a golf course first thing yesterday, so I thought today I'd reflect a little on the weekend's [...]

No bankers, but Arsenal need to show we’re ready to go again against Forest

Morning kids, we all excited for match day? I know I am! Didn't go to bed until midnight and here I am at 6.30am wide awake. There's something very special about the first game of the season when it's a homer. Everything is new, hope has been renewed, the bad tastes of last season (unless [...]

We need to string the Turner sale out until Friday late afternoon…

Looks as though the Matt Turner to Forest deal will be going through sooner rather than later and, with us playing them on Saturday lunchtime, it'd be weird if it happened sooner and he plays in between the sticks at the Emirates for the away team, eh? I've just had a look at the Forest [...]
