Well now, that was much better than the Ipswich game, eh? In fairness, there is of course a lot to do with game state with all matches and the one on 27th at home was against a team absolutely battered in their previous match and therefore naturally not wanting to create a spiral of doom [...]
It's League Cup action tonight as we play Palace at home and I think I speak for everyone (maybe) when I say: Play all the squaddies Mikel! I've chosen my words carefully here, because the usual response with a game like this is 'kids', but I think we're in need of some rotation tonight and [...]
A home match day again see's us up against 15th-placed Everton and an opportunity to at least keep pace with runaway leaders Liverpool, who will absolutely beat Fulham today on their own turf, if last weekend's game is anything to go by. Let's face it, we did everything to win that game and it was [...]
Happy Champions League match day folks! I'm super excited for this one. Do you know why? Because I'm going tonight AND I used to play in defence for my Uni team, so I might get a place on the bench!! After all, with the amount of defenders we seemingly have on the treatment table right [...]
I said it in the aftermath of Friday's press conferences, that Fulham feels a little more difficult than when we looked at this run of games pre-international break, but I feel it even more this morning: This is going to be hard today. Fulham are decent at home. Four wins, one draw and two defeats [...]
That's three in a row in the Premier League now and after an initially poor / average first half, Arsenal turned it on in the second to secure all three points at home to a United team who are certainly more structurally organised under Amorim than under Ten Haag. The Portuguese manager had said there [...]
BIG game today. Very big game. I touched on it yesterday about how the pundits are pretty much all siding with us and that 'Jones Knows' chat on Sky even went for a 4-1 thrashing. Lawrenson has gone 2-1 Arsenal Sutton has gone for a 3-1 to us. We should beat them. We have a better [...]
In what is becoming a bit of a habit for me at the moment, I thought I'd go an check out the situation on some of the West Ham forums this morning, to get a bit of a vibe check on the opposition fans in the run up to our game against them. Unlike in [...]
Well now, wasn't that a lot more fun last night than we expected, eh? I don't think there are any Arsenal fans that thought that Mikel Arteta and his charges were going to head over to Portugal, absolutely blitz an unbeaten team with a 100% domestic win record this season, with one of the clubs [...]
So we're back in Champions League action this evening and it's the Portuguese champions we are up against in Lisbon tonight, in a game that sees a repeat of the March 2023 Europa League Round of 16 we played in March 2023. That game finished 2-2 and at the time I think most of us [...]
