Back from a week off in the Maldives and having fortunately picked a week in which it's been internationals going on, from an Arsenal perspective it's been good because there's not really massive amounts to talk about. Well, nothing that you have probably not already read just about everything on. Then I check in on [...]

All eyes on Saka

I didn't really touch too much on comments in the wake of the United game about Bukayo Saka, made by Arteta, when asked about him. But I suspect just to re-iterate the situation he'll definitely be asked about the forward today in his press conference. Mikel's comments on Sunday were that his progress was good [...]

Turgid at Old Trafford as toothless Arsenal hit another low block

At this point I'm not really sure what value the analysis will be from a game like yesterday's turgid 1-1 draw against a terrible Man United side. But I'll give it a go. Until I can't be arsed to type anything more. Let's see how it goes. Firstly that United side who, surprisingly to me [...]

Low key United-Arsenal game that we still need to probably win

It's a big one today As Arsenal face off against Manchester United in an epic top-of-the ta... ..Oh wait, it's not. I love how Sky Sports have tried their best to dress this game up as having some kind of significance, when in reality: A win for Arsenal does nothing other than keep a bit [...]

Calafiori up top isn’t the answer, movement across the whole side is

This weekend's game feels like one of the most low-key of games against United that I can remember. I've been watching Sky Sports attempt to build it up as some kind of crunch match, but I think all of us know that it really isn't anything of the sort: United have nothing to play for [...]

Season tickets and Sesko

Honestly, which one of the footballing gods did Liverpool sell their souls to, in order to have the kind of rub of the green that they have been getting this season, eh? I don't want to say "luck" because it isn't lucky that they have a world class 'keeper in Alisson, but bloody hell, they [...]

Arsenal’s blitzkrieg in Holland has one-and-a-half feet in the quarters

Got a busy one today at work, hence the delayed time of penning some thoughts, as I'm dropping some words in between meetings and also on company time. Don't tell anyone - you know I'm good for it. And bloody hell, Arsenal were good for it last night, eh? I think one of the most [...]

PSV preview: Arteta needs attacking answers from his Arsenal players

It's hard to know what to make of tonight's away tie to PSV this evening. Ordinarily I'd be thinking that this is one we should be able to get a good footing on, so we can finish the job in North London, so tonight is about maybe racking a goal or two so we all [...]

How does Arteta solve the current profligacy problem?

Morning Gooners and welcome to a new week. After the disappointment of the Forest game I said I'd take some time away from engaging with Arsenal content and that's just what I did. It was refreshing. Staying away from social media, not engaging with any football content whatsoever, not listening to Arsenal podcasts, or watching [...]

No jeopardy, no creativity, no spark at Arsenal

After the defeat to West Ham at the weekend I took a bit of time away from social media and blogging. That defeat was the nail in the coffin for any lingering title hopes and I just didn't feel like dipping back into the Arsenal world to lament and stew on what has been a Seasonis [...]
