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 [...]

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 [...]

Arsenal's conclusion to this horrendous Champions League group stage format concluded last night and after the initial concern of how the format would play out when we drew away at Atalanta and then ended up losing to a dodgy penalty away at Inter on match day three, we ended up finishing third in the competition, [...]

A routine Arsenal win (and about time!)

Sometimes I write the headlines before I own a single thought on here. But coming out of the ground last night with Arsenal all but secured an automatic spot in the last 16 of the Champions League, that’s exactly what I felt, because we were never really troubled at all against a Zagreb team who [...]

How much can/will Arteta change and rotate this evening against Zagreb?

Morning folks and welcome to match day Wednesday. We've got the last of our five home games today and it's the final home game of this infernal Champions League Group stage, for which we welcome Croatian side Dynamo Zagreb to The Emirates. Standing on 13 points so far, it's an opportunity for us to put [...]

Did Martinelli already hit his ceiling? Does he need to re-invent himself?

That Fylham game still rankles me, you know, because it feels like even if we'd have sneaked by with a 2-1 and that goal at the end of the game that was chalked off for VAR would have stood, we'd be in a pretty decent position right now. We'd be on a winning streak in [...]

Momentum maintained with Monaco mauling

That, eventually, was a jolly nice evening in the end. Don’t get me wrong, we had some perceived wobbles at times and particularly in the first half of yesterday’s ‘scoreline’ hammering of Monaco, we looked like that might be one of those “we’re going to regret missing our chances aren’t we?” kind of games. But [...]

Arteta leveraging his positivity stick to reboot The Arsenal

Eight goals in around 80 hours between Saturday and Tuesday has a Gooner like me rather excited right now. I seem to have eschewed my normal glass half empty mantra, which has been replaced with a really positive vibe about The Arsenal looking ahead to this weekend's game against West Ham. Of course, the feelings could be [...]
