Well it wouldn't be a pre season with Arsenal if there wasn't already some sort of rumoured injury crisis, would it? Yesterday the news emerged that Mertesacker may - or may not - be out for five months after the injury he sustained against Lens last week (which ruled him out of the US tour), [...]
With the story of Mourinho still dominating the press pages (he would want it no other way), there is little else that the nationals are interested in, so they've put down their rainbow coloured invention pens, focusing on the North for now. I hope that it is the same for the rest of next season. [...]
It's press conference day today, which means that by the time most people who bother to read this collection of Arsenal-related rabble, most of what has been said has already been supeceded by the words of Arsène. I'll persevere nonetheless though, because I'm sure I can find something Arsenal-related to talk about, especially given that [...]
Inspid was the first word that came to my mind after yesterday's display and I've already seen a number of Arsenal fans use it, so clearly I'm not alone in my view of how this Arsenal team failed again to show any kind of drive, any kind of belief and quite frankly looked like they [...]
That performance yesterday was what the Palace game was supposed to look like on Sunday, wasn't it?

So here we find ourselves, at the beginning of April, with all but the tiniest glimmer of hope that a Premier League title challenge remains. Were it to be City and Chelski duking it out at the top of the division, we'd all be looking at what reinforcements Arsenal need to make after another disappointing [...]
So here we are at the end of another working week and a weekend of FA Cup football ahead of us. Today is press conference day and whilst we got a bit of news as usual on injuries yesterday from Le Boss, he'll no doubt elaborate a little bit more this morning and give us an [...]

I don't know whether to be thankful that United players seem to be dropping like flies ahead of our crucial game at Old Trafford on Sunday, or fearful of some kind of comedic backlash from the rookies and squad players van Gaal picks to play against us in the league. After all, I seem to [...]
