It's Saturday morning, about thirty minutes before kick off in Australia for the second pre season game of the season, and I'm blogging. Have you ever done something that you know will be redundant the second you've finished it? That's me right about now. It's like vacuuming your house and steaming the wooden floors before [...]

Aaaand we're off for pre season with some actual football to speak of! Yessir, yesterday Arsenal played against Sydney FC and its was a decent line up in both halves, with just a smattering of young players who ended up being some of the more interesting talking points it seems. Of course everyone's going to [...]

Power plays from Özil and Giroud

At 11am this morning UK time I believe Arsenal will be kicking off their pre season campaign with a game against Syndney FC and ahead of that match the club launched the new third kit, which will hardly be seen by anyone throughout the season, but more importantly it was sported by key players and [...]

Who gets binned off from Arsenal’s first team?

Yesterday I was chatting to a few peeps online about Naby Keita from RB Leipzig and how I'd seen a video and he looked ace. I also said I wouldn't mind him at Arsenal by the looks of him. He looks like he has that drive in midfield. The ability to travel quickly and with [...]

Lyon Chairman’s openness is useful for fans but not for Arsenal

Still quiet. Still not a lot happening in the Arsenalverse. Still waiting. Well, I say it's 'still quiet', but that is to say it's quiet for everyone else except the Lyon president Aulas. That man likes a soundbite doesn't he? Over the weekend he was declaring that Arsenal would have to pay close to what [...]

Don’t always believe ‘Sky sources’ – even with Lacazette

Another off season Saturday rolls into town and another rumour takes centre stage with Arsenal and after a week in which people have started to get excited about Mbappe, somebody has decided that this weekend is Lacazette speculation weekend, with multiple sources including the famous 'Sky sources' having their say that a €50million (£44million) deal [...]

It’s hot and quiet but at least Giroud stays

It's a hot one today. Some say the hottest in the south east since 1976 which, if you weren't alive to experience it, is all older people like your parents talk about whenever you talk about whether or not we'll have a decent summer in this country. Ahh well, you see whatever they say about [...]

Where’s Arsenal’s catalyst?

It's Friday, it's approaching the weekend, and it's awfully quiet out there in Arsenal land.  Too quiet. The kind of quiet that starts it all off. The worry. The fear. "What happens if we go the whole summer having only picked up a left back on a free transfer?" Kind of quiet. True, it's still [...]

Ollie G needs big name competition for his place

By |2017-06-10T11:18:39+01:00June 10th, 2017|analysis, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Arsene Wenger, Attack, gooners, Gunners|2 Comments

How about Ollie G and that goal last night, eh? I don't usually bother with international football, but given that one match was distilled in to two brilliant moments for Arsenal fans - a great strike from our centre forward and a total howler from the Spurs keeper, I was happy to see my Twitter timeline filled [...]
