The ‘Meh’ – Part I

In what will inevitably now feel like the longest end to a Premier League season ever, Mikel Arteta will today be subjected to quite a painful press conference experience, I'd wager. Not only does he have to sit in front of the press and talk about the fallout from the PSG defeat and exit in [...]

Injuries cost you everything – comparing Liverpool 2023/4 with Arsenal 2024/5

With Liverpool ostensibly going to win the league this weekend, naturally all of the talk has been about them, the great work that Arne Slot has done, how impressive they have been. So naturally with Arsenal not playing this weekend, that's taken a little bit of my focus today rather than the usual look at [...]

Arsenal need to ‘do the job’ against Palace tonight

Tonight's game against Palace feels like a bit of an inconvenience for both teams, if we're all honest with ourselves, but Arsenal still have a job to do this evening. With Man City winning late against Villa last night, City are within five points of us now, having played a game more. The whole world [...]

Me having suggested that perhaps they'd take the day off yesterday, of course Mikel Arteta rocked up to do his press conference in the afternoon after I'd posted some thoughts, such is my luck. I don't mind, it gives me something to have a look at on an Easter Saturday morning, although aside from some [...]

Arsenal need to capitalise on their current standing in the game

With all of the noise around the Madrid win still beautifully ringing in our collective ears, it's easy to forget that we have another game in to days time, which will be the trip to Portman Road to take on the Tractor Boys. As it's Good Friday, I wondered whether we'd have a Mikel Arteta [...]

Rotation the aim for Brentford today – but mindset has to remain strong

Morning campers, how we all doing? Weird one, this one today, innit? I mean, we have ourselves a match day, we have ourselves an Arsenal home game and we have ourselves a pressing need to probably at least win four of our last seven to be assured of the second spot in the Premier League. [...]

Quick look at Brentford – long ball and high press from the Bees?

It looks like it's shaping up to be a glorious few days of weather here in London over the next couple of days, but will the football tomorrow evening match that, given what we saw on Tuesday and the fact we have our second leg of the Quarter Final of the Champions League against Real [...]

Why do I have so much apathy about this season?

So defeats to Forest, a 0-0 draw between Brentford and Chelsea and a 0-0 between City and United, have effectively meant that despite getting shafted on Merseyside on Saturday lunchtime, there's not really been a lot of movement in the Premier League this weekend. The results as they fell mean that we're five clear of [...]
