Happy Saturday and welcome to the weekend folks. Hope life is treating you all well. We had Arteta's presser yesterday and he seemed pretty fine and his usual self when talking about the team and player availability for Sunday, which is good. Gabriel apparent missed training since the Bayern game but Arteta didn't seem to [...]
Morning Gooners - happy Friday and all that jazz. Hopefully you're looking forward to the weekend and the Arsenal on Sunday? I do hate Sunday games in general. Saturday's have always been the best time to play football and Sunday just feels like a long wait, feels like you have to hang around a bit, [...]
I went for my afternoon run first thing this morning, which has its benefits because rather than speculate on what Arteta has to say in his press conference today, it's happening literally as I type out today's ramblings. So I have a bity of a real time reaction opportunity this Friday morn, which is novel. [...]
I never normally watch the opposition match press conference, but given the build up to this massive game tomorrow and given how significant it could impact both City and Arsenal's season, I thought I'd have a little sneak peak at pep's comments in his presser. Obviously I was also intrigued on how he delivered news [...]
In classic Chris style, yesterday I predicted that we wouldn't get Arteta's press conference until today, so of course Arteta went in front of the press yesterday to talk about the upcoming showdown against Brentford tomorrow in the early evening. If you ever see me at the races, bet on the horses I'm not picking! [...]
First and foremost, before we get cracking on the team news following Arteta's presser yesterday, a word for Declan Rice, who won the London footballer of the year award at a ceremony last night. A fully deserved award who helped bring a trophy to West Ham and who has joined Arsenal for a big fee [...]
Morning folks - hope we're all in fine Friday form, despite the bad taste of Wednesday night's defeat. On the one hand it left a bitter taste and that's still circulating my mind, body and soul. But on the other hand we have the opportunity to expel that and replace it with the flavourful taste [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Saturday. We've still got over 24 hours until we rock up at The London Stadium (one of the worst to get in and out of I've ever experienced, I have to say) and yesterday Arteta was doing his usual press conference stuff in the afternoon to give us an insight [...]
Here we are at Friday, the transfer window has closed, we've made no incomings, there have been a fair few outgoings, but they've all been younger players on loan or released because they had contracts running down/would have been low value releases anyway, so all-in-all it's been a quiet one and I think if we're [...]
Happy FA Cup third round Saturday folks. It's a shame really, because the third round weekend used to be one of the more fun weekends. You used to get yourself a home or away tie against another team you usually don't play against, there would be tonnes of football on all the time (well, compared [...]
