Certainly a fair ol' chunk of stuff to get our teeth in to this morning, eh? Firstly the signings, which will be announced today and there are even one or two fuzzy/grainy pics going round of what looks like Martin Odegaard with the media team at Arsenal doing a video shoot outside. I think we [...]

Coutinho to Arsenal should be instant dismissal, but hope remains in Odegaard

Yesterday I was playing catch up on the game from Friday and so I didn't really have the online page space to talk about some of the transfer rumours currently going around. Which is just as well, because the one that emerged yesterday that Sky Sports are now reporting on is that Barcelona want to [...]

Are Arsenal ready for the new season? Is Willock’s exit just the start?

So the two big talking points today then, are: The final televised friendly against the Scum that ended in a 1-0 defeat yesterday lunchtime The impending sale of Joe Willock First, the game itself, which was the final one in the 'Mind' series. We found ourselves on the wrong end of the result and finished [...]

As much goodness and badness: Chelski friendly review

Plenty to chew over from yesterday's 2-2* draw over Chelski at the Emirates, some good, some shall we say 'less so good'. Let's get the less so good stuff out of the way first though, because I'd rather finish today's blog feeling a little more positive, given that it's a Monday morning. Arteta named a [...]

Pepe, ‘The Smith’ and Auba – post Rangers musings on three key players

I was in no fit state yesterday to do anything other than sit in the sun and melt a bit, so didn't pen any post Rangers thoughts and, given that it's a Monday and there isn't really any massive breaking news from yesterday, I thought i'd jot down some musings from the game that I [...]

Arsenal tick all of the boxes in routine win over Newcastle

By |2021-05-03T11:07:24+01:00May 3rd, 2021|Arsenal FC, Attack, Match Review, Mikel Arteta, premier league|0 Comments

I must admit to you that I thoroughly enjoyed that Arsenal game against Newcastle. If you're going to write a script on the perfect match before a big European Cup Semi Final game to prepare, that one yesterday was almost a perfect situation. Resting key players: Check Getting minutes for returning players: Check Feeble opposition: [...]

Arsenal-less Saturday’s

By |2021-05-01T08:06:23+01:00May 1st, 2021|Arsenal FC, gooners, Gunners, injuries, Mikel Arteta, premier league, press conference|0 Comments

Happy Arsenal-less Saturday folks. And it really is an Arsenal-less one this weekend, because the official account and website are off social media - along with a host of other clubs and sports across the globe - to raise awareness for the unacceptable behaviour of a minority of idiots who not only abuse people like [...]

Cashing in: Edu’s big summer ahead

Phew. That was a relief to see that Man City are still in control when it comes to the Man City Cup, the cup which essentially proves that if you have enough money you can build a squad to rotate that is better than other squads. But the most important thing at all was that [...]

The fight for the soul of Arsenal isn’t over

It feels a little bit odd to be talking or even thinking about ACTUAL football after the last few days that we've had, but ACTUAL football there is on the horizon, with a game tomorrow night against Everton at The Emirates. And a game in which there will be fans there. Not in the stadium [...]

Lacazette, ESR and Torreira – round up of news from yesterday

Morning all. Here we are at 'Anything but Good' Friday. We may get a day off, but The Management's family tradition is such that we don't have a drink on this day, even though it's just the two of us and the cat who will be enjoying each other's company over this long weekend. No [...]
