Yesterday Arsène spoke to the assembled media to give a bit of an update on the team news and I suppose the good stuff is that nobody has been maimed enough to be sitting out that we didn’t already know about. Mustafi and Welbeck look to be back, Giroud is our, whilst the sword of [...]
Ahh man, this feels like it’s a real dragger of an Interlull, and not just because there’s little going around by the way of Arsenal news. I tune out the transfer tittle-tattle when there’s still six weeks to go until the January window opens, and when it’s a window that doesn’t usually see big clubs [...]
Morning. I have a stinking cold which has kept me up half the night and really has been quite vexing. But despite that, logging in to my social media profiles and looking back over the failure of a Totts team to beat a West Ham side who were on the beach, looked like they were [...]
As the immediate euphoria of the hilarity of finishing about the Tiny Totts begand to die away yesterday afternoon whilst at work, I started to search out unread articles from journalists, surely backtracking on the inevitable 'North London Power Shift' rhetoric that had been gathering momentum in the last few weeks. I thought it might [...]
In this season of the bizarre and ridiculous, perhaps it was most fitting that on the final day an Arsenal team all had written off as quite poor, took one final step upwards in the league to leapfrog the Spuds by hammering Villa. In return, Newcastle decided to finally show up for their fans, giving [...]
So there we have it. Leicester City are Premier League champions. Weird, huh? There's plenty of football fans saying that you have to be pleased for them, that this isn't something that happens in the era of big money football, so we should all be rejoicing in what Leicester have achieved. Whilst I too must [...]
When Harry Kane thundered that second Spurs goal in after Mertesacker had dallied in the corner, I had pretty much given up all hope of us getting anything from the North London Derby (NLD), let alone worrying about t he league title. We have all seen this Arsenal team fail to show the required mettle [...]
So here we are folks. A day I've been dreading for just under a week. The North London Derby. To say I'm not confident is an understatement. We have no form. We have injuries. Some of the players have admitted they lack a bit of self belief at the moment. And we're up against a [...]
Arsène does his press conference today and lord knows what questions he'll be asked, but we can be assured that he will give a response that includes the phrase 'we have to fight' or a variation of that. The very fact that in our last two games the fight has clearly not been there in [...]
I know it's the FA Cup this weekend, I inow it's an opportunity to bench our league campaign for a few days, but it is the league that keeps me awake at night. What's been keeping me awake is our poor form, but also the form of others, who have all picked up varying degrees [...]
