Arteta’s reliance on those already here – a dangerous game?

I decided to go for an early run this morning and as usual, put on my headphones and had a listen to an Arsenal podcast or two. There was one topic which I did find interesting during the run, which was from the lads on the Arsenal Vision podcast, in which they touched on the [...]

Arsenal’s shape and fitness is starting to show

I know pre season friendlies aren't supposed to mean anything, that you can't read too much in to them and that had we lost yesterday's 'behind closed doors' friendly at London Colney to Milwall then we'd all have shrugged and said 'move along', but I have to tell you I did enjoy watching the game [...]

A rally cry for SOME of the players already at The Arsenal

By |2021-06-08T08:02:20+01:00June 8th, 2021|Arsenal FC, Arsenal Manager, Arsenal Transfers, youth|1 Comment

Morning folks. I don't normally make a habit of signposting  people in a different direction to another part of the internet at the beginning of my usual daily ramblings, but I was particularly impressed with this week's Arsecast, in which Andrew and James had a chat about transfers, what's on the horizon (or not as [...]

Evade a high press against Sheffield United and don’t hoof long, Arsenal

By |2021-04-11T09:40:36+01:00April 11th, 2021|Arsenal FC, Attack, gooners, Gunners, injuries, Match Preview, midfield, Mikel Arteta, Tactics|0 Comments

In the grand scheme of things the result tonight probably doesn't really matter too much against Sheffield United. Of course we want to win, but winning will neither cement a position in a part of the league we want to be at, nor will it enable us to climb the league to any significant amount. [...]

Arteta gets it all wrong again against Slavia Prague

Well folks, the good news is that we aren't out of the Europa League yet, that there is still another leg to go and an opportunity for Arsenal to progress to the semi final of the competition. In itself a 1-1 draw in a two-legged tie isn't the worst thing in the world; you still [...]

Be aggressive and go for goals against Olympiakos

Morning folks and welcome to another match day, only this one is a definite match day with a lot more riding on it than most, as we face up against Olympiakos in Athens this evening. It is not only a familiar ground - having played there as our 'home' game in the last round - [...]

Happy Tuesday folks. Well, as happy as it can be when you're locked away at home under lockdown, or a variant of depending on where you live, with Arsenal also losing games adding to the general malaise. And drama. Let's not forget drama, because it doesn't seem to be a day going by without there [...]

Arsenal need to rope-a-Man-United-dope to win today

Morning folks. Hope you're all fine and dandy. I was woken up at 5am thanks to the Velux windows in the bedroom and the incessant rain that was smashing down. So I thought I might as well get up. I was in a bit of a daze for five minutes and almost forgot that there [...]

Isn't it lovely starting off the middle of the week with the sweet smell of victory in your nostrils? That's what we got yesterday after Arsenal picked up an away day victory to Southampton and, I have to tell you there was a lot to like about yesterday's win. Firstly, Southampton are a good side, [...]
