It’s the big one today and, as I suspected but didn’t say, the butterflies and nerves for this game against City later on are starting to kick in. Arsenal travel to Manchester trying to do something we haven’t managed to do in nine previous attempts in all competitions. You have to go back eight years [...]

I never normally watch the opposition match press conference, but given the build up to this massive game tomorrow and given how significant it could impact both City and Arsenal's season, I thought I'd have a little sneak peak at pep's comments in his presser. Obviously I was also intrigued on how he delivered news [...]

Morning Gooners, how we all doing on this Saturday morn? How optimistic are you that we might see Bukayo Saka on the pitch tomorrow, eh? A bit more optimistic than a couple of days ago I'll bet. That's because we've started to hear some whisperings that he might be ok from Sunday, with even Mikel [...]

I'm going to let you 'in behind the curtain' a little here and level with you, these words were written yesterday (Saturday), as I knew that I would be rather hungover and probably in no mood to sit at my computer and tap away at the keyboard for 20 minutes whilst trying to prepare myself [...]

Are Arsenal REALLY the problem for the pundits?

Morning folks, we all good? I'm sure you're all still feeling the glow following the last minute winner against Villa, which is more than can be said for some of the 'pundits' out there that appear to be rattled. Honestly, I do find it a little weird how triggered people get by Arsenal. is it [...]

A defeat Arsenal are oddly Ok with?

Tis' an odd feeling indeed to view an FA Cup defeat with so little despair, but as I write this morning I feel oddly fine about the fact that we went out by an odd goal to Manchester City at the Etihad last night. What is also odd, however, is that looking at my Twitter [...]

Approaching Man City with calmness – win-win for Arsenal tonight?

Matchday it is and I have to tell you, rather than the usual trepidation I feel ahead of a massive game, I am more excited for this one. Honestly, I really am! I think it is because - as I've said all week - this is priority number three on our list and regardless of [...]

Arteta’s ride hasn’t even properly started yet

Morning folks. Hope you're all gravy? Me? Well I'm fine thank you very much. Had a load of ol' dodgy dreams about people being rude on ferries and offering to fight me when they wouldn't listen to mine and my mates' advice that they don't sit next to our tiger because it bites. Which I [...]
