Saka’s back and we’re all thankful of that!

Is there anything more wholesome to see than a Bukayo Saka smiling back at you from the club cameraman's picture at London Colney, to confirm that he's back in full training? And I have to say, you have to marvel at the club's medical team for their accuracy on this return. Now, of course, he [...]

Arsenal Women pave the path; Zubimendi walking it to Real?

Don't think there's any other place to start today than to congratulate the Arsenal Women for overturning a 2-0 away first leg defeat to Real Madrid, to win 3-0 with those second half goals to send the Emirates wild last night on full time. Fair do's to the ladies, because in a similar vein to [...]

Job done, rotation done, PSV done – Real next up

I have to say, based on what I thought we’d have yesterday evening against a PSV side that must have know the jig is up after the final whistle went on the first leg last week, I didn’t picture that there’d be much in offer on a relatively chilly night in North London yesterday evening. [...]

Eyes on the ball (and prize) for Arsenal against PSV tonight

Liverpool have been rolling the dice and getting so many sixes this season, that when I went to bed at 10pm with it into extra time, I just expected to find out this morning that they'd won 5-0 on penalties. But they're out, the media fawning over them winning the quadruple that we were witnessing [...]

Who cares about who Arsenal get in the Champions League quarter final? Me, a little bit…

So last night we found out all about who our opponents could potentially be, as the last of the Champions League round of 16 games were played and it was Atleti and Dortmund who advanced to the quarter finals, which means we'll get one of: Atlético de Madrid Barcelona Bayern München Borussia Dortmund Manchester City [...]

After Rice and Timber, Arsenal aren’t dropping another big deal. Are they?

Morning folks and happy Tuesday to you and yours. Back in to the swing now and after listening to the always excellent Arsenal Opinion podcast featuring Johnny and Pete on my morning run this morning, I was listening to some of their comments about some of the potential incomings that are being touted IN ADDITION [...]

Arteta and Real Madrid – that couldn’t be a thing – could it?

It's Wednesday, it's the middle of the week, but it is only another couple of days until matchday and after the disappointment of Sunday's draw there is half of me looking forward to hopefully seeing the team put it right at home  to Southampton, whilst the other part of me worries that a rut has [...]

Odegaard the ‘no brainer’ deal that Arsenal had to do

By |2021-08-18T07:20:52+01:00August 18th, 2021|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, gooners, Gunners, Mikel Arteta, premier league, Transfers|4 Comments

I kinda did a fair bit of thoughts yesterday on Odegaard,  in saying that I'm hoping for that instead of Coutinho, so perhaps yesterday evening was just the football karma gods cutting me a break as I was scrolling through my Twitter feed last night to see that David Ornstein and a couple of Norwegian [...]

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 [...]

Praying for the safe return of Odegaard and Saka

Ahh the international breaks - as I like to call them - "time off from football". I have never held any interest whatsoever in these ghastly mid-season periods of pointlessness and whilst some people do indeed get rather excitable over matches played for their chosen country/country of birth, until a major tournament I just couldn't [...]
