Lots of things to get through from yesterday's press conference, so there's some 'cracking on' to be had, I feel. First and foremost, the team news, which sees Koscielny as rated as 60% to play on Sunday. I'll be honest and say I like those odds, because we need Laurent to be available to hold [...]
Went to bed early last night and as a result, didn't catch the final whistle of the United game, but as I'm sure you'll tell me that's no real loss because by the sounds of it, it was a drab affair. Imagine that? A Mourinho team going away from home and shutting up shop for [...]
Happy Saturday Gooners. It's FA Cup weekend but as seems to be par for the course these days, we don't play until Sunday. I suppose we'd better get used to it because next season unless something drastic happens in the Premier League, we'll be seeing a lot less Saturday football and a lot more Sunday [...]
Oh, hello, how the devil are you? Feeling fine and dandy on this Saturday morning? It's been a while since I blogged - Monday I think - but I thought I'd return to action given that there's football this weekend. I've been in St Lucia you see and whilst there's wifi throughout the resort, I [...]
I don't know if I've mentioned this before, but my journey to and from work swings me by Wembley Park and yesterday, it was unusually busy. It was only after almost everyone got off at the national stadium that I realised that the Spuds were having a leaving party! Apparently there were a few empty [...]
I told you I hated North London derbies. Yesterday was no exception. Worry before, nerves during, and in the case of yesterday's result it was disappointment after. The disappointment isn't because we completely outplayed a Tottenham team who don't concede many, but more that we didn't show our potential in a big game at home [...]
I don't know about you, but I hate North London Derbies, because they cause too much nerves and often too much stress. The build up is fraught with terrible "what if" scenarios and sharing a birthday with one isn't exactly my idea of grand day of celebration. We always seem to be playing them at [...]
Arsène Wenger always has, and always will be, the master of his own way. I bet he wakes up at the beginning of each week and decides when his press conference will be, lifting his phone only to tell somebody at the club to 'make the necxessafy arrangements'. It's the only explanation for the press [...]
Happy match day one and all. I hope you are all feeling fabulous and crossing your fingers in the hope that Arsenal secure safe passage to the next round of the Champions League through three points and results going out way? Yep, if PSG win tonight against Basel, as well as an Arsenal victory against [...]
Far be it for me to actively encourage a little bit of schadenfreude on a Thursday morn, but I couldn't help but chuckle at the Spuds result yesterday against Monaco, as they were sucker-punched in to a 2-1 defeat at 'home'. Perhaps it was because of some of the mitigating factors that I experienced on my commute [...]
