Sweating on the fitness of Partey

I don't know about you guys, but when I saw that Thomas Partey was an unused substitute in the game against Angola yesterday evening, my initial thought was of relief. After all, if he's made the bench, then he must be available to be used, right? I mean, otherwise if he isn't fit to play [...]

Round one of ‘Arsenal international damage report’ complete

This is the worst part of the international break. It really is - as Arseblog puts it - the 'Interlull'. Eng-ger-land might have played yesterday, Harry Kane might have got himself another individual accolade in a team sport (well done Harry, hope you keep up your record in cup competitions too), but frankly I couldn't give [...]

Nelson sends Arsenal in to last-gasp dreamland

Wow. Wowsers. Wow-wee. Wowingtons. What a finish to a football match. That will live long in the memory. It will go down in Arsenal folklore. It will be seen by some as 'the moment' and in the context of this season, it could be huge for Arsenal, huge for this title race. When a game [...]

Arsenal need to go for blood this evening; revenge against Everton required

Happy match day folks. A midweek match day in the premier League. And what an opportunity we have that sits before us. An opportunity to go five points clear at the top. An opportunity for revenge against a side that beat us just a few short weeks ago. An opportunity for us to start saying [...]

There’s goals in that there Leicester/Arsenal game – but how many? And to whom?

Happy Match day folks! Is it happy though? Do you every REALLY enjoy matchday? As I mentioned on my blog yesterday, I did a stadium tour yesterday, which was pretty awesome because The Management had sorted me out a VIP Legends tour, which meant I was shown around by Lee Dixon and Nigel Mitchell, who [...]

The “yeah but Arsenal haven’t had many injuries” fallacy

I feel like talking about something that has really been bugging me over the last few weeks and months, in relation to the way in which Arsenal are perceived, particularly by fans from other clubs. I've seen this narrative appearing since just before the World Cup, which has perpetuated through Christmas and then right up [...]

Forensically searching for players in pictures at Arsenal

By |2023-02-03T08:52:04+00:00February 3rd, 2023|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, injuries, midfield|0 Comments

I said yesterday with a brash tone "they're sure to have a press conference today as I would imagine they'll be travelling up to Everton on Friday given the game is a 12.30pm kick off on Saturday". So of course there was no such presser, once again proving that a) I know absolutely nothing about [...]

Squad depth and mentality at Arsenal

Morning folks, how we all doing? Having a good one? I'm struggling to shift a bloody annoying sore throat and cough at the moment, which isn't ideal, but I guess it's the time of year n'that... It's also the time of the season where the dust has settled on the transfer window, the second half [...]

Arsenal need to pivot quickly after latest Caicedo rebuff

Welcome to Transfer Deadline Day week folks. Strap yourselves in, because the next 40ish hours or so are going to be rather trying, as usual, I suspect. I said I wasn't going to get too connected to the Moises Caicedo stuff, but after flying back from Newcastle last night hand having a solid hour and [...]

Partey’s importance cannot be understated enough at The Arsenal

Morning fellow Gooners, hope you're all well on this Sunday morn. It feels a little quiet waking up today in the Arsenal world, after the game on Friday and also the release of information about our £60million Caicedo bid. I am in Northumberland at the moment and I spent a lot of time yesterday with [...]
