I enjoy writing. I always have. It's kind of my hobby. It's why I work in Marketing - I enjoy writing content and I get to do it (less so these days as I run a team that does most of it) in my job talking about the industry I work in. It's why I [...]
Before we get on to today's task against West Ham at home, a word on the draw for the Champions League, which see's us up against PSV in the Round of 16, with victory in that tie meaning we'd be up against either Atletico Madrid or Real Madrid. A win there takes us to the [...]
Morning Gooners and happy Friday to you and yours. We've got Mikel up later today at some stage and he'll give us a team update, so it'll be interesting to see how he handles the inevitable 'Big lad Merino up top Mikel?" questions from the journalists. It could go a few ways; he could pour [...]
I tell you what, this Arsenal team is cooking at the moment, isn't it? I mean yes, there was a moment in the first half when it went to 4-2 that I had PTSD from my trip up to Newcastle all those year's ago to watch the 4-4 draw, but as I said on the [...]
Yesterday I did a bit of a look at West Ham, but with Arteta and Lopetegui having their press conferences yesterday, we have a little more detail and I think I'll obviously focus a little more on us today.

Eight goals in around 80 hours between Saturday and Tuesday has a Gooner like me rather excited right now. I seem to have eschewed my normal glass half empty mantra, which has been replaced with a really positive vibe about The Arsenal looking ahead to this weekend's game against West Ham. Of course, the feelings could be [...]
Bleugh. Drank too much last night and here I sit on a Sunday morning with a mixture of sore head through too much red wine, as well as butterflies in my stomach through what will transpire later on this afternoon, for which I need not remind you. It all comes down to this. As Arsenal [...]
I saw a post from somebody I follow on Twitter yesterday and they said that they simply aren't feeling the nerves ahead of Sunday. I also listened to the Arsenal Vision podcast yesterday on my run and Clive was talking about how emotionally he had just put a bit of a pin in his feelings [...]
Do you know what's funny? This time last week my mind was full of positivity and basking in the glow of a post-Liverpool victory. That win felt massive, it felt huge, because we'd beaten a team who were on a fantastic run and who many thought that a draw would be alright for The Arsenal. [...]
