Morning all, hope we're all ok on this Thursday in August? It was good getting the business done earlier, eh? I remember too many times getting to the last week of the window thinking "nope, we're still too short, they HACE to do something soon". Of course quite often it would be leaving it until [...]

So the lads are in the US prepping for the MLS all stars game and as a result of that Arteta has been speaking ahead of the tour to the press. It's been covered fairly extensively and you can read word-for-word what he's said here, so I thought I'd pluck out a few of the [...]

What are we going to do about Pepe, eh?

Seen a bit of chatter online on social media and then in a couple of WhatsApp groups I am in about Nicolas Pepe. Whilst a chunk of the Arsenal squad went out to Germany to prep for the first pre season game of the summer against FC Nurnberg tomorrow, there were a few players that [...]

Saliba sorted, Dwight Yorke’s random ‘takes’ and chuckling at Chelsea’s attempt for Balogun

Don't mix your alcohol, kids. It will end badly for you. Spoken from a man with plenty of experience and exposure to this scenario. And I'm supposed to be going to a Bruce Springsteen concert later in Hyde Park. Bleugh. Still, on the up side, Arsenal confirmed the contract extension of Big Bill Saliba and [...]

Saliba signs and there’s some chatter about the deal length

We're just getting Ornbomb after Ornbomb at the moment, aren't we? And yesterday's latest explosion was the confirmation of the William Saliba deal, which has been signed, sealed and delivered and I suspect the club are just choosing the right moment to make the announcement, having confirmed Nelson signed a new deal yesterday too. Give [...]

Morning folks and welcome to Monday. I was hanging quite a bit yesterday, so couldn't face a computer screen, but I did eventually get around to looking at my phone and saw that David Ornstein had confirmed that Saliba had all but signed up on a four year deal to stay at the club. It's [...]

'Tis the season to be...... ....Worried about every single transfer rumour that gets banded about, apparently, and I am by no means an exception it seems. For yesterday in the morning - after I'd written my daily musings on here first thing, a story emerged about how Arsenal could be resigned to losing Saliba this [...]

Howdy peeps, hope we're all feeling good on this Premier League weekend? The big matches don't happen until tomorrow with Man City going to Everton to pick up what will inevitably be three points as Everton lie down and have their chins tickled by a Man City side who will feel pretty confident that they [...]

Rewarding the good work of this Arsenal team

Back in Blighty today and back to the usual routine, following a few days of French boozing and stocking up on the vino, and it appears all the talk is about contracts. Saka is set to be announced soon according to Fabrizio Romano and at this stage you have to conclude they are just waiting [...]
