Do Arsenal have it in them to ‘swoop’ for players?

Well, here I am coming to you from a very sunny Portugal folks, which can only mean one thing: Arsenal transfer signings are going to start happening. Don't ask me how, don't ask me why, it just is a 'thing', going back to when we signed Per Mertesacker and Mikel Arteta in 2011. This is [...]

Are you worried for Arsenal for next season?

I didn't get around to penning some thoughts yesterday because I was at the hospital for a check up on a dicky wrist, but in the evening last night the guys and I chewed the fat on the Same Old Arsenal pod in which we discussed the Nottingham Forest game, which I found really hard [...]

Jesus on the brink – but is it enough?

By |2022-07-01T07:48:03+01:00July 1st, 2022|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Attack, gooners, Gunners, pre season|0 Comments

Happy Friday people. And as we all know Arsenal love a little bit of good news on a Friday. But let's be honest here, we're just waiting for the official confirmation on the website and the club's socials about Gabriel Jesus, because yesterday somebody - most likely from one of the high rise flats surrounding [...]

It’s not a war chest Arsenal have, it’s a replenishment jar

This morning I stumbled downstairs in my usual half awake state, opened the fridge, got out my berry smoothie I have for breakfast, then flicked open my social media and news feeds on my phones to see what is happening in the world. Do you now what the first piece of speculation was that I [...]

Solving international break problems; hoping Arsenal’s summer is being solved now

Ahh man, isn't this international break just the worst, eh? I don't know what it is about this particular one, but it feels like it is properly dragging on to me. It's only Thursday. We have ANOTHER week of this. Plus the warm glow of victory is starting to wear off, yet the dull ache [...]

The mass clear out at Arsenal in the summer is astonishing

It's Wednesday, the middle of the week, another three days until we meet Southampton in the FA Cup. So what did I do when I woke up this morning? Something I haven't really done all season: I looked at the league table. It's a bit mental. Usually by February you start to see one or [...]

Arsenal to pick up some freebies in the summer?

By |2020-05-21T08:30:29+01:00May 21st, 2020|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, contracts, Mikel Arteta|0 Comments

So we have now seen pictures of the players returning to training this week and what have we learned? Very little of course. Because it's training. And you only get the occasional still. I do think all of the Premier League clubs should start broadcasting video content of the training. You know, so we can [...]

Martinelli wants a Ronaldo career trajectory – we could do with that!

By |2019-07-03T08:08:57+01:00July 3rd, 2019|Arsenal Transfers, contracts, gooners, Gunners, Transfers|0 Comments

We have our first signing of the summer! Hazaar! Gabriel Martinelli joins us from Ituano and hopefully it's not the 'Petr Cech solo summer signing' of a few years back, but it is still good to see a new face in at the club. A new face who models himself on Cristiano Ronaldo and if [...]

Arsenal aren’t bringing enjoyment any more

This last few days has been some of the longest times I've not blogged since I started this website up around ten years ago. I don't tend to do it too much when I'm on holiday, usually because I'm hanging and not waking up until after 10, but this time around there is no such [...]

Formation flip-flopping and transfer plan confusion at Arsenal

By |2018-04-17T07:52:03+01:00April 17th, 2018|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Arsene Wenger, Rant, Tactics|0 Comments

I'd like to tell you that I'm still reeling from Sunday's performance but much like our domestic season, it all feels a little pointless and actually, it wouldn't be true, because I just feel resigned when I think about Arsenal this season in the league. People have stopped talking to me about Arsenal specifically at [...]
