Morning folks and welcome to an Arsenal-less Saturday. But of course Arsenal being Arsenal and this season being what it is (cursed), of course the dust had barely settled before we learned of another injury setback. If we all thought that seeing Martinelli get on the plane in the Dubai warm weather training trip was [...]

Don’t put all your eggs in the Dubai trip

Happy Sunday folks. Hope you're all doing well. Still feels weird that most of the footballing world (in terms of Premier League Teams) are playing this weekend and our players are sunning themselves in Dubai. I know how relentless it all has been over the last six weeks or so, but I was listening to [...]

Arsenal’s numbers are similar to last season, but this feels different…

It's the start of a new week, we have to look forward instead of back from a football perspective, unless you're talking about Man United and the Scum. Both lost yesterday, both look shambolic, the only sad thing might be that Big Ange may not last until the end of January at this rate. There are [...]

It probably ain’t our season – the Villa draw might show it

Feel a bit down this morning. After the highs of the midweek win against The Scum, yesterday we were brought back down to earth and sadly, I think our title chances are probably all but gone now. We have 16 games left to play, Liverpool will beat Everton with their game in hand and that [...]

Jesus injury will force Arsenal to act

Was travelling back from South Africa to Blighty yesterday, so didn't get to pen any thoughts in the wake of that FA Cup exit to a United side who - like a few before them this season - basically scored with the one chance they really fashioned. And with the games coming thick and fast, [...]

Arsenal’s profligacy in front of goal highlighted by excellent Isak

Sometimes when I watch Arsenal, I just have that feeling of “oh no, this is going to be one of THOSE games” and after we’d created a couple of good chances before Newcastle got their first goal, including Martinelli crashing the ball off the post, I started to have that feeling. It’s the feeling that [...]

Strap yourselves in for a dirty Low Block FC game tonight against Newcastle

It’s another game in this hectic schedule for The Arsenal this evening and with a potential League Cup final place at stake if Arsenal manage to overcome an in-form Newcastle side over two legs, it’s going to be a really tricky game against a side who will fancy their chances with the way they are [...]

Solving the Saka problem

Happy Christmas Eve y’all. Hope you’re enjoying the Christmas period and, like me, are already moving yourself in to Gorge Mode like I am. My normal approach the day after Mike Arteta has had his press conference is to pour over every word of his ahead of the game on 27th December, but given that [...]

Arsenal need a repeatable game blueprint

I watched the mentalness that was The Scum against the Scousers last night in a Durban airport and although I wanted to see Liverpool drop points, it’s hard not to have a wry smile about how terrible Tottenham are at the back. Yes, I know they have injuries, but playing your back line on the [...]

Arsenal’s efficiency against Palace is welcome indeed

Howdy peeps, from an overcast Johannesburg, in which me n the Management are spending our Christmas with friends. The time zone is a couple of hours ahead of the UK which meant I was able to time the watching of the game with an early dinner, meaning no disruption to the most important activity of [...]
