Liverpool have been rolling the dice and getting so many sixes this season, that when I went to bed at 10pm with it into extra time, I just expected to find out this morning that they'd won 5-0 on penalties. But they're out, the media fawning over them winning the quadruple that we were witnessing [...]
It's a big one today As Arsenal face off against Manchester United in an epic top-of-the ta... ..Oh wait, it's not. I love how Sky Sports have tried their best to dress this game up as having some kind of significance, when in reality: A win for Arsenal does nothing other than keep a bit [...]
It's hard to know what to make of tonight's away tie to PSV this evening. Ordinarily I'd be thinking that this is one we should be able to get a good footing on, so we can finish the job in North London, so tonight is about maybe racking a goal or two so we all [...]
Before we get on to today's task against West Ham at home, a word on the draw for the Champions League, which see's us up against PSV in the Round of 16, with victory in that tie meaning we'd be up against either Atletico Madrid or Real Madrid. A win there takes us to the [...]
Morning Gooners and happy Friday to you and yours. We've got Mikel up later today at some stage and he'll give us a team update, so it'll be interesting to see how he handles the inevitable 'Big lad Merino up top Mikel?" questions from the journalists. It could go a few ways; he could pour [...]
The up side of playing this evening in the League Cup is that we find ourselves - well, I do anyway - quickly deviating away from the disappointment of TDD with a match in which suddenly there's a wee bit of optimism amongst the fanbase. It's odd because when the first leg of this tie [...]
It's match day, it's a Saturday kick off, it's Wolves away and it's a game that the pundits are all universally saying that it'll be a comfortable Arsenal win. Merse is saying 3-0, that Jones Knows fella on Sky Sports is saying 3-0, Sutton says 2-0, Lawro says 2-0 and Sports Mole is giving us a [...]
Morning folks and welcome to match day Wednesday. We've got the last of our five home games today and it's the final home game of this infernal Champions League Group stage, for which we welcome Croatian side Dynamo Zagreb to The Emirates. Standing on 13 points so far, it's an opportunity for us to put [...]
It's matchday folks! And I feel like I'm going to be saying this a lot for the remainder of the season....but it absolutely IS a 'must win', because even though Brentford have a great home record, they held City to a 2-2 draw on Tuesday night, I suspect Liverpool might win this one. They've drawn [...]
It's Friday, we've barely had time to breathe post the NLD, yet Mikel Arteta goes in front of the press at some stage today (at the time of me penning this) to talk about tomorrow evening's game against Villa - yet another 'must win'. Obviously looking ahead to that game is going to be the [...]
