Do Arsenal have it in them to ‘swoop’ for players?

Well, here I am coming to you from a very sunny Portugal folks, which can only mean one thing: Arsenal transfer signings are going to start happening. Don't ask me how, don't ask me why, it just is a 'thing', going back to when we signed Per Mertesacker and Mikel Arteta in 2011. This is [...]

City’s dominance no comfort to an Arsenal fan like me

It would have had to have been a very cold day in hell for me to have watched Man City smash Real Madrid last night. The fact they did gave me about 1% feeling of "well, they've just tonked the European Champions, so perhaps the inevitable was going to happen for us. In my attempt [...]

Xhaka’s exit might be the right timing for all parties, but we will 100% miss him

If most Arsenal fans would have read that Leverkusen were buying Granit Xhaka for £13million in the summer of last year, I think a big chunk of Arsenal fans would have been absolutely fine with it. For me he's always been a talented player that I think has improved steadily under Arteta, so I'm not [...]

Should Arteta experiment for the final two games?

Still feeling it a little bit after the game on Sunday. How about you? Even the catharsis of doing the pod last night hasn't helped to get me over the defeat to Brighton. I said on the pod that my football hangover cure was to avoid social media for a bit and that I did, [...]

An Arsenal fan goes ‘Inception’ ahead of West Ham away

Happy Friday you lovely lot. Man, that week absolutely flew by for me personally, as it feels only yesterday I was chewing my fingernails down to bone in anticipation and dread of what lay ahead of us come the Sunday with that trip to Anfield. Would our season's attempt at the title falter and leave [...]

How perfect do Arsenal need to be in the next six weeks?

I'm going to be honest with you, seeing the Financially Doped Sky Blues (FDSB) of Manchester blitz their way through Bayern Munich last night has me somewhat concerned that they are hitting a level of form that everyone expecting from the start of this season. It seems it doesn't matter whether they are playing the [...]

Arsenal aren’t the bottle jobs. Everyone else is

There's still lots of introspection and online discourse as to whether or not Arsenal have 'ceded the advantage' or similar such wording, in relation to the title race. The likes of Gary Neville are saying things like "I still fancy City to win it" and to be honest with you, if you take your red [...]

Arteta plays a straight bat pre Liverpool

Tricky Micky Arteta had his press conference yesterday and, as expected, didn’t really give away much in terms of team news. I suppose the best news is that we have no fresh injuries from last weekend. That is good enough for me because at this stage of the season the last thing we want to [...]

What is it about the North West for The Arsenal?

Happy Good Friday to you and yours. Hope you have nice things planned with the family. I'm spending the day doing jobs before sauntering over to the Mother-in-Laws so I can vegetate for a few days and just spend my time relaxing. Except I won't really ever 'relax' properly, because of what looms on the [...]
