Arsenal wouldn’t be very good in a casino…

If Arsenal needed to bet it's house on something, you'd probably bet the exact opposite of whatever they do, right? "All on red for us" "Erm....yeah, i'll take black please..." I am, of course, referring to the news that Sami Mokbel broke yesterday about Kai Havertz, who is rumoured to have suffered a hamstring injury [...]

The February / March ‘block’ will define Arsenal’s season

It kind of feels like an international break right now, doesn't it, eh? There's a bit of radio silence save for the odd snap of the team in Dubai, the players will all be flying back today so we'll not get much content of interest other than them boarding the plane to head home, then [...]

A little bit of Hopium with an early return Saka, Martinelli and White?

Happy Monday folks, hope we're all doing ok? Or are you as bemused as I was yesterday. No, I'm not talking about Liverpool being knocked out of the FA Cup to Plymouth, but rather the images that have emerged from Dubai which seem to suggest that Martinelli is in part taking some part of training [...]

Martinelli’s telegraphed injury

Morning folks and welcome to an Arsenal-less Saturday. But of course Arsenal being Arsenal and this season being what it is (cursed), of course the dust had barely settled before we learned of another injury setback. If we all thought that seeing Martinelli get on the plane in the Dubai warm weather training trip was [...]

Don’t put all your eggs in the Dubai trip

Happy Sunday folks. Hope you're all doing well. Still feels weird that most of the footballing world (in terms of Premier League Teams) are playing this weekend and our players are sunning themselves in Dubai. I know how relentless it all has been over the last six weeks or so, but I was listening to [...]

Arteta and Arsenal get the approach wrong at Newcastle

After just a few minutes at St James' Park I had an inkling that this game was going to be very much a case of Deja Vu for us up in the North East. A bouncing ball in the middle of the park wasn't won by Partey, Isaak was found in space in behind and Arsenal [...]

Arsenal’s slim chances buoyed by our good form

The up side of playing this evening in the League Cup is that we find ourselves - well, I do anyway - quickly deviating away from the disappointment of TDD with a match in which suddenly there's a wee bit of optimism amongst the fanbase. It's odd because when the first leg of this tie [...]

I hope you know what you’re doing, Arsenal…

Transfer Day came and went with barely even the slightest of muffles from Highbury House or London Colney and, whilst I think most of us aren't really surprised, there's definitely a sense of frustration within the fanbase as to the lack of activity in the market this January. I think for me personally it has [...]

MLS shines as Arsenal destroy Mr Stay Humble’s City

Man, that felt good yesterday, didn’t it? After all of the hand-wringing about our lack of signings this month, after what felt like a very barren beginning of the year with us profligate in front of goal and virtually out of the two domestic cups, Arsenal turned up on a cold London February afternoon and [...]
