Having talked quite a bit yesterday on our Wednesday night 'A Little Bit Arsenal' show about how Emery isn't afraid to hook players regardless of their status in the squad, this morning I find myself waking up thinking about the substitutions he's making at the moment, wondering whether it will remain that way all season. [...]
Howdy folks, hope you've started your day in a positive fashion, reading through messages of Dennis Bergkamp who yesterday in 1995 signed for The Arsenal and went on to become a legend at the club. Thierry will always be my king, but Dennis is god. That's how it is with Arsenal fans. As for modern [...]
Two days after the defensive shambles that was Stamford Bridge and still the result is stinging a bit, but after a day of boozing for the parents Ruby wedding anniversary, plus reading the views of the players and other Arsenal fans, in pleased that we all seem a little more chilled about a second defeat [...]
I feel weird writing about Arsenal this morning. Weird because I don't know exactly how I feel. Often I will feel happiness, elation, anger, sadness, frustration, but today I feel a little bit of everything. And that's weird. Ultimately I guess the emotion that overrides all is sadness because we once again lost at Stamford [...]
Unai Emery delivered his second press conference of the new season yesterday and I think it's fair to say it was a mixed bag for us. The positives are that he's getting to grips with the language more every week and it feels like he should be able to deliver a pretty flawless presser by [...]
Happy Thursday y'all! It's technically still summer in the UK but given the drizzle that has engulfed my particular corner of the world, you'd never have guessed it, because it's looking pretty grim. As grim as Carl Jenkinson's hopes of getting out of Football limbo, where he currently resides, too expensive salary-wise to leave Arsenal [...]
I wonder if Ivan, Raoul and Sven have been playing Football Manager over the summer, because that's the only fathomable explanation why they've decided to issue a 'not-quite-official' declaration that Unai Emery's job is safe. There were a few reputable places online reporting it yesterday and when I read it whilst on my way to [...]
Morning all! Excited? I know I am. Of course I'm also absolutely bricking myself as to what lies ahead because quite frankly, the Premier League random fixture generator couldn't have made it more difficult for us if it tried. Man City were so many streaks ahead of everyone else last season that it's hard to [...]
We're less than a week before the big kick off to the Premier League so perhaps inevitably, what with the transfer window shutting on Friday too, Arsenal are suddenly looking less than perfect when it comes to preparation with the new season. I'm talking of the Ramsey situation of course, but also of the Calum [...]
This time next week fellow Gooners, it'll be countdown to Premier League match weekend one and we'll be but a few days away from finding out just how ready Unai Emery's charges are for the slog ahead. The summer has been kind to us so far. We've done business early, the players have had plenty [...]
