Arsenal doing the job; confidence soaring against Norwich

Some days writing about The Arsenal feels like a proper chore. I've been - broadly speaking - writing about Arsenal for 13 years and so it has become habitual, which means I really do have to drag my carcass to the laptop and at this time of the year with over-indulgence a daily occurrence, it [...]

Arteta’s balancing act for Christmas

So it seems we are now playing the waiting game when it comes to our Boxing Day fixture. Two games were called off yesterday, including Wolves’ match against Leeds and that means Wolves will have had a full nine days rest between their 0-0 draw against Chelski on 19th and when they play us. Hardly [...]

Buendia, Neves and Bissouma: Arsenal’s decisions already being made?

Morning all, hope you are all splendid today and feeling bright as a button for this latest week of rumour, counter-rumour, rage, fear and general angst that comes with a summer Arsenal transfer window. A summer in which - like every summer window since social media turned transfers into an opportunity to shout at a [...]

Luiz, Tierney and Arsenal controlling themselves

Morning all. It's Friday and I'm still irked about what happened on Tuesday night. What about you? I suppose some of that also has to do with the fact that yesterday early evening the FA released a statement to say that David Luiz's appeal for his red card was ignored. I don't think any of [...]

A referees league table with relegation/promotion; bringing back some accountability

Still pretty frustrated about the way that Wolves game panned out on Tuesday, I have to tell you. It was clearly a contentious point that split most people in football but whilst the fault lines seem to be that every other pundit and ex-referee (most of them, anyway) were coming down on the "red card. [...]

Arsenal shafted by refereeing once again against Wolves

I have woken up this morning and I am still mad about the result last night. There were certainly things in which we could have done more to avoid the defeat to Wolves at Molineux last night, but I am finding it almost impossible not to think about this game and look at the details [...]

Can Arsenal contain Wolves’ threat out wide?

Wellety, wellety, wellety, if there hasn't been one heck of a clear out at Arsenal this January, eh? I know there are a fair few loan deals that went out the door this January, which means we still have some futures to sort in the summer, but given where we were at the end of [...]

Arsenal hold the transfer cards; maybe a start for Odegaard?

Morning folks. Another Monday comes rolling around but unlike most Monday's, this one has the hyperbole of being labelled 'Transfer Deadline Day', which means Sky Sports go nuts all wearing silly yellow ties and dresses, they talk a little faster on Sky Sports News, they inject some kind of faux urgency into a day that is [...]

High press and avoid the counter: the blueprint for victor over Wolves

By |2020-11-29T09:56:13+00:00November 29th, 2020|Arsenal FC, Attack, Defence, Formation, Match Preview, Mikel Arteta, premier league|0 Comments

Iiiiiiiiit’s matchday! Always a day that is both exciting and terrifying because in 12 hours time we’ll know that Arsenal have either buggered up another opportunity to get points on the board, or they’ll have made this weekend a heck of a lot better by beating Wolves. But in order to do that it feels [...]
