We kick off match week 25 with a host of non-Arsenal fixtures, as the TV companies continue to feed from the money trough by spreading matches over three days, and I can't work out whether us playing on Thursday is a good thing or not. The Scum, for example, play Newcastle tonight, but then they [...]
I have mixed feelings about tonight's game away at Everton, you know. One the one hand, we have had a full week of training for the players, there are plenty of training pics that show key players are back in the squad and fit for tonight, plus we got an update from Mikel that Big [...]
Mikel Arteta was his usual coy and non-committal self when it came to the injury update in yesterday's press conference. So we got merely the continued "matter of days" schtick with regards to Saliba, Trossard and Timber, whilst Rice was the same with the manager admitting that it was an illness that he picked up [...]
Here we are folks. North London Derby day. One of the worst fixtures of the year and this season, weirdly, NOT worse than playing at their gaff. Which is so weird. I'm used to waking up and just feeling like it's going to be the worst fixture when we play at the Toilet Bowl. I [...]
Having successfully navigated and thoroughly enjoyed Hate Watch Saturday, I am now fully focused on match day Sunday and I gotta tell ya, the nerves are proper kicking in already. Last season, every time Liverpool slipped up, we weren't able to capitalise. I remember seeing that Liverpool had slipped up in match week 16 and drawn [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Thursday. With the international tedium now well behind us in the rear view mirror, thoughts shift back towards the Premier League and a return of an old adversary to The Emirates in 'Big Ange' Postecoglou. His reign at Forest is now underway and, as you'd expect, he's come out in [...]
Last night I was cooking dinner and I flicked on Sky Sports to have in the background. Almost immediate as the first feature story they had one of their reporters outside London Colney talking about the role Merino played at the weekend, whether he could be 'the guy' in at number nine for us for [...]
So we're back in Champions League action this evening and it's the Portuguese champions we are up against in Lisbon tonight, in a game that sees a repeat of the March 2023 Europa League Round of 16 we played in March 2023. That game finished 2-2 and at the time I think most of us [...]
Mikel Arteta will take to the stage today at London Colney for his pre match presser at some stage this Friday and ahead of that I thought I'd take a look at who we're up against tomorrow, in the shape of a newly promoted Southampton side, with a very familiar face about them in between [...]
Ahh man, there really is bugger all on today from a football perspective, that's for sure, with the Euro's final not on until Sunday, The Arsenal not on for a few weeks on from that, plus the only real transfer news going on is stuff we've already been privy too, like Lokonga, Calafiore and Tavares.
