Feels like there's a couple of ways that Mikel Arteta can look at tonight's game: Get the points and automatic qualification lined up so we can properly rest players for the final two matches Rotated heavily to preserve some players for Wolves and Everton in the league, which as I mentioned yesterday, has a full week [...]
Before we talk The Arsenal and look ahead to the game tomorrow night in Belgium, let's spend a minute or two talking about the Mo Salah situation, eh? Because as Arsenal fans, we've seen this stuff play out a couple of times and we know how it goes: Big Name ageing player on big money [...]
Didn't manage to compile some thoughts on Villa, what the pundits are saying and also how they play under Unai Emery this season, before the managers did their press conferences. But a lot of what unfolded yesterday with the pressers was kind of pushed to the background when, yesterday afternoon, Sami Mokbel broke the news [...]
That was one of those ‘on paper’ routine nights, wasn’t it? Arsenal had a job to do. They needed to avoid a banana skin. They needed to de-risk the whole evening. They needed to make this a perfunctory three points. Brentford are not a team to be trifled with. Yes, they have a pretty shoddy [...]
Howdy folks, hope we're all good? I thought that the catharsis of the Same Old Arsenal pod last night with James and Amanda would help me to understand my feelings over that Chelsea result, but I'm still no nearer to breaking it down.

So [...]
It's Friday, it's a couple of days before we go to Chelsea and it's a trip into the Chelsea fans forums for me to see how they are feeling. It's certainly a mixed bag, with as much of them saying they can't see themselves losing, as well as the reverse. I think this season has [...]
Well now, isn't today the most glorious of days, eh? It's 8am, the sun is rising on a crisp November morn and Arsenal are, once again, kings of North London. A dominating North London Derby that saw open play goals, a six point lead at the top opened up, plus a performance from one of [...]
Having spent the whole week lamenting the massive injury crisis that surrounds the North London Derby this weekend, both Arsenal fans and them got a bit more of an inkling as to how actually it's not all as bad as it seemed over the international break. If you look at the Premier League injury table during the [...]
Happy Friday folks - how we all doing? Let's start with some positive news, which is that yesterday afternoon Big Vik took to his Instagram to get pictures of himself in training. Given how Arsenal spend so much time trying not to give anything away by clearly selecting pictures they know won't include any players [...]
