The last few words I said on my blog post from yesterday: As Arteta said in the wake of the Chelsea game, it’s been eight weeks of consistent players going down with niggles, so we need to just get through this final international window and then get some flipping players back! Famous last words, eh? [...]
Are we being adversely punished or something, as Arsenal fans, eh? Last season we had plenty of people chirping that we'd barely had any injuries. But we were missing Thomas Partey for two-thirds of the season, Gabriel Jesus was out for big chunks, Zinchenko was missing a few times too. Smith Rowe missed seven Premier [...]
Morning folks. Hope you're all good. Poor ol' Tomi, eh? Takehiro is not on tour with the rest of the squad over the next week and a bit because of a knee problem that some of the Arsenal journo's on the beat are saying relates to his knee. It means that he'll have two-to-three weeks [...]
I don't feel nearly as crushed this morning than I thought I would. I suspect that's because for a while we all knew how the final day would play out. Man City had won nine in a row in the league and yesterday they played a West Ham side with nothing to play for and [...]
Morning Gooners, hope we're all good? Happy Friday and all that jazz. I had a weird ol' dream last night, I gotta tell ya. Leeds United and Brighton teamed up to play us in a Premier League game at Elland Road, which the Premier League allowed obviously (must have been too focused on chucking out [...]
Another one of the current crop tied down, as Arsenal announced that Takehiro Tomiyasu has extended his stay with the club by signing a new deal. And it was a lovely video that the club posted to announce it too: Dedication. Determination. Tomiyasu ✍️ pic.twitter.com/2Q6kGZWNza — Arsenal (@Arsenal) March 20, 2024 We all love Tomi, [...]
The main news that I'm hearing about this morning is that Takehiro Tomiyasu has agreed a new deal with The Arsenal, as we move to tie down more of those trusted players that Arteta likes in his squad, per various sources yesterday. For me I think this is the right thing to do. He's a [...]
First and foremost, before we get cracking on the team news following Arteta's presser yesterday, a word for Declan Rice, who won the London footballer of the year award at a ceremony last night. A fully deserved award who helped bring a trophy to West Ham and who has joined Arsenal for a big fee [...]
Matchday it is and it's a chance to keep pace with Liverpool and City. City play in the evening, Liverpool play at lunchtime and given the two opponents they have, I'm not expecting us to have anything beneficial come out of their two games, so we simply must do the business against Burnley in the [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Saturday. We've still got over 24 hours until we rock up at The London Stadium (one of the worst to get in and out of I've ever experienced, I have to say) and yesterday Arteta was doing his usual press conference stuff in the afternoon to give us an insight [...]
