It probably ain’t our season – the Villa draw might show it

Feel a bit down this morning. After the highs of the midweek win against The Scum, yesterday we were brought back down to earth and sadly, I think our title chances are probably all but gone now. We have 16 games left to play, Liverpool will beat Everton with their game in hand and that [...]

English VAR issues once again – why am I not surprised?

Morning Gooners - we all good? Got a bit of sun yesterday afternoon and inevitably dropped a beef-heavy BBQ in the back garden whilst watching the Austria v Poland game. That's what I love about the group stages; there's always something on TV to watch. Especially when it's the Euro's, because when it's the World [...]

Doing VAR properly

By |2024-06-20T08:22:35+01:00June 20th, 2024|analysis, Arsenal FC, Internationals, premier league, Rant, referees|0 Comments

I want to talk a little about VAR today, particularly the application in the Euro's right now, but before I do that, let's spare a thought and metaphorically pour out a little liquor for Kieran Tierney's Euro2024 campaign, which basically died last night as he was stretchered off for another injury sustained in a career [...]

Patiently waiting and hoping for a clean Arsenal bill of health

So, we're done with this frigging pointless friendlies and, as suspected Gareth Southgate kept Declan Rice on the pitch for the full 96 minutes last night. I flicked on and awatched about 10 minutes of the first half as I was cooking to see Pickford have a howler, then I heard about Lewis Dunk's howler, [...]

Would you take a ‘loan only’ transfer window from now on?

Morning Gooners and welcome to Thursday, in which we now know that the Klopp and PGMOL farewell tour appears to be underway, as Paul Tierney decided to settle his differences with the German manager and basically give them immunity to dodgy refereeing decisions by booking a Chelsea player early on for diving when there was [...]

Arsenal deliver a game of one quarter to secure a draw against Chelsea

By |2023-10-22T09:33:51+01:00October 22nd, 2023|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Match Review, premier league, Rant, referees|1 Comment

We've had three draws this season and for a side who have aspirations on the title, you can look at that after nine games and without knowing any context think "hmm...that's not exactly the most amazing start". But, as with all things, context is everything and I don't think there is an Arsenal fan out [...]

The easiest 1-0 Arsenal ever had

That win against Leicester yesterday felt like one of the most dominant 1-0 victories you are ever likely to witness. If you just look at it from a scoreline perspective you'd probably think that it was a gritty, nervy, hard-fought and difficult win away from home, grinding out the three points and getting the hell [...]

Finally! People are waking up to the patterns against The Arsenal…

Morning fellow Arsenal fans, hope you're all good? Where are you at in terms of the unpleasantness hat happened over the weekend - still mad? I kind of am, but I'm also pleased that the appropriate media response has come out about the situation, which I think has been helped by the few ex-Arsenal players [...]

The frustration at dropped points and being mugged off by Lee Mason

By |2023-02-12T10:18:16+00:00February 12th, 2023|Arsenal FC, Attack, gooners, Gunners, Match Review, premier league, Rant, referees|2 Comments

Another frustrating performance sees Arsenal drop points and by the time we get to the end of this weekend’s fixtures, it’ll be just three points and a game in hand between Arsenal and Man City. This is a City team who we keep hearing ‘aren’t quite the same’, ‘has something missing’, etc, etc. yet they [...]

Imperious Arsenal impress against West Ham

Morning you wonderful humans, you, and a Merry Christmas one and all! Yesterday I had a lovely afternoon with my family around my brothers house. My nephew greeted me at the front door with a big smile on his face, wearing the West Ham third kit, followed up by a few volleys of "we're gonna [...]
