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 [...]
When Mikel Arteta started busting out "best at everything" lines in yesterday's press conference, it immediately invoked Stormzy's 'Shut Up' song and I had to have a little chuckle. I think from the transcript I read from the official site yesterday, there must have been at least half of the questions related to set pieces. [...]
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 [...]
I watched almost all of the Liverpool v Man City game in a state of shock and surprise. You could see the visible embodiment of confidence and a lack thereof with the two teams on display. For that first half Liverpool completely dominated City, who looked shell-shocked, with some of the stats that popped up [...]
I tell you what, this Arsenal team is cooking at the moment, isn't it? I mean yes, there was a moment in the first half when it went to 4-2 that I had PTSD from my trip up to Newcastle all those year's ago to watch the 4-4 draw, but as I said on the [...]
Yesterday I did a bit of a look at West Ham, but with Arteta and Lopetegui having their press conferences yesterday, we have a little more detail and I think I'll obviously focus a little more on us today. But before that, the West Ham team news, which Lopetegui talked about alongside handing our a [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
