Arsenal unlock stubborn Forest – eventually…

When I penned my thoughts yesterday morning about how the game would be another difficult to break down Forest side, that we’d be up against a team who wanted to rapid transition counter and a side that would want us to have the ball, I don’t think I envisioned a first half that was quite [...]

Arsenal need to banish the Forest recent history to get title talk back on track

Morning folks and back we are finally for another match day for The Arsenal. I tell you what, hasn't January felt a little sparse, eh? Owing of course to our FA Cup exit which has meant two rounds have gone on since we went out to Liverpool, we found ourselves with even more time for [...]

Transfer x won’t define our season

Howdy folks and welcome to Monday. They're much more palatable when The Arsenal have picked up three points and have bagged a bunch of goals, eh? I saw a few fans say that we should shut up about the Newcastle goal that was given now that we've had our own version of that goal allowed, [...]

Arsenal get the psychological win they needed against Palace

Greetings from a warm and sunny Maldives. The Management and I arrived yesterday and have a week away from the cold weather in the UK, which is lovely, although it has it's drawbacks as I had to give up my ticket for the Palace game yesterday, which was the evening over here. And as I [...]

Arsenal vs The embodiment of Low Block FC

Happy matchday folks! Hope you're all good? Excited for The Arsenal finally being back today? I know I bloody am! It feels like it's been AGES! It's almost as if it's been worse than an international break, for some weird reason, as I recently pointed out here. But it's back, The Arsenal are back, there's [...]

Is Smith Rowe impressing in Dubai enough to kick him on?

Happy Friday folks, hope you guys are all good? It'll be press conference day today ahead of the Palace game and with less than two week's until the transfer window closes I think it's inevitable that Arteta is once again asked the question on whether there are any incomings happening this January and, inevitably, he [...]

Getting subs right in the second half of the season

Morning folks and welcome to Thursday, as we tick ever-closer towards that game against Palace for the 12.30pm kick off on Saturday lunchtime. I'd asked for a marginal gain of Everton and Palace going to extra time last night and whilst it was unfortunate that it never happened, the fact that Palace put out a strong [...]

Can Arsenal benefit from fatigue ‘marginal gains’ in the next couple of matches?

Eugh, this is becoming intolerable now, this absence of football. I don't know why, but it feels even worse than an international break period. And there was even football on last weekend, which was supposed to at least keep me preoccupied until The Arsenal roll back in to town, but alas it has made things [...]

Arsenal fan gets irrational after three defeats

Cor blimey it's cold in London right now. I'm sure many of you are from places that would consider the weather we've got in the UK 'mild', but my body isn't designed for minus temperatures and when I have to wear five layers for my morning run, that's really hitting home for me, that's for [...]

Gambling on Zinchenko’s fitness

Morning folks and a happy Monday to you and yours. Well...as happy as a Monday as you're going to get when there's been no Arsenal on and you've had to sit through a Man United versus Tottenham game in which both sides looked a little bit pants. The night before I'd watched a ding-dong of [...]
