Here we are folks - match day! I have to tell you, I know this feeling well from many years on this planet and many times experiencing this s well as getting to go to The Arsenal on the first day of the season, but this feels like the most excited I've been of what's [...]
Happy Tuesday campers, we all good? Tomorrow the team line up against Leverkusen in our penultimate friendly before the season kicks off properly and it'll be the return of Xhaka who I'm sure will get a good reception. I suspect Arteta might do something today, maybe not a press conference (or maybe he will?) but [...]
We knew the day would come, we've been speaking about it for a while, but yesterday it was confirmed that Emile Smith Rowe, ESR, 'The Smith', left Arsenal signed for Fulham on a permanent transfer. I don't think I've seen such a universal sadness from Arsenal fans for a player who had essentially become a [...]
So the last game in the US ended with a 2-1 defeat to Liverpool and I have to say when I saw Liverpool's first goal, I had to do a bit of a double take, because the commentator said 'Salah' but there was no trademark big curly hair racing through. Is this the latest 'marginal [...]
I went for my run this morning, listened to an Arsenal podcast as I always do, digesting what's going on in the Arsenal world ahead of the latest game in the early hours of the morning in Philadelphia. These pre season games are useful as fitness exercises, as opportunities for fans from overseas to get [...]
So, we have ourselves another Italian, as Riccardo Calafiori was officially announced by the club as our second major first team means signing of the summer, arriving from Bologna. It’s a good deal, it seems a fair price, Arteta has his man and we have ourselves another left back to add to our stockpile. We’ve [...]
That's the second pre season game of the season done in the early hours of the morning my time and it was a 2-1 win for our lads against Erik "I AM FURIOUS ABOUT ARSENAL AND OFFSIDES" Ten Haag's Man United. You love to see it. He was apparently unhappy about our equaliser, which game [...]
Happy Friday folks. For me it's a Friday in which I am slightly worse for wear, on account of going to Wembley Stadium to see The Boss (not Mikel) bust out his tunes, so naturally I had a few beers whilst listening to Bruce Springsteen. I gotta tell you, felt a little weird being in [...]
Howdy folks, hope we're all in fine fettle this Tuesday morning? The Arsenal 'squad' are in the US now and Arteta was interviewed ahead of the Bournemouth game tomorrow, as we prepare to take on Bournemouth in the early hours of the morning on Thursday UK time, which is the first time we've heard the [...]
So the wheels seem to be in motion. Well, they've been in motion for a while on the players who are on the verge of exits - Sambi and Nuno - but this will be another sale by the club and I guess ultimately it all adds up. Sambi is off on a loan which [...]
