The fear of the North London Derby

Here we are. The worst day in our football calendar in my opinion: North London Derrby Day at home. I hate it. There's just so much always riding on this one, the nerves are heightened and - despite there being no fans in the stadium and therefore home advantage is pretty much negated - it [...]

Morning folks and welcome to another match day, only this one is a definite match day with a lot more riding on it than most, as we face up against Olympiakos in Athens this evening. It is not only a familiar ground - having played there as our 'home' game in the last round - [...]

Normal football is on the horizon again!

Today feels like it should be a good day. I've woken up to the sun shining here in London, birds tweeting, as well as a bit more of a clearer indication as to when some normality returns to life again in England. Yesterday the Prime Minister made his statement about when he thinks the country [...]

Mesut Ozil: it shouldn’t have ended this way

Well now, what sort of Arsenal-related news could we possibly talk about, given that they aren't playing until Monday and Arteta already did his presser on Thursday that we had a chin wag about yesterday? Oh, I dunno, how about a certain German playmaker with whom nearly all of the major media outlets confirmed yesterday [...]

Morning peeps. Happy Friday! How did that come around so quickly? I don't know if it's the same for you, but my first work week has absolutely flown by and I've got to be honest with you, I'm pretty glad about that, because: I've also given up booze I'm currently trying to shift Christmas pounds [...]

Dreaming of 97/98? Don’t get too excited…yet…Plus Saliba & Buendia chat

I didn't bother to watch any football yesterday (no Arsenal, no bother) but at 10pm last night as the news was on I thought I'd have a flick through my Twitter feed. And blow me down if I don't see a load of Arsenal fans talking about the 1997/98 run that won us the league. [...]

Arsenal approaching Chelski like a small club underdog

Boxing Day and match day. There was a time where I’d be pretty excited to have a bit of The Arsenal on at Christmas, but I’ll be honest with you, I’m not feeling overly confident and given that it’s been literally months since we won a Premier League game, the prospect of beating Chelski seems [...]

Arsenal will win tonight – believe it

Morning folks. This is my first blog for weeks. I took some time away and decided that Arsenal was causing me too much discomfort and so I avoided watching a few matches, checked scores at the end, that sort of thing. But I couldn't completely stay away and watched the Southampton game in full and, [...]

Can Arsenal use Partey and pace to spring the trap against Man United?

Morning all and welcome to match day. This is a match day that, let's be honest, has rarely been a fun one for us and given both teams' respective form I'm not exactly overly confident of us getting three points today. There have been times where I've thought "this year, with that United team and [...]
