Morning campers, how we all doing? Weird one, this one today, innit? I mean, we have ourselves a match day, we have ourselves an Arsenal home game and we have ourselves a pressing need to probably at least win four of our last seven to be assured of the second spot in the Premier League. [...]

Quick look at Brentford – long ball and high press from the Bees?

It looks like it's shaping up to be a glorious few days of weather here in London over the next couple of days, but will the football tomorrow evening match that, given what we saw on Tuesday and the fact we have our second leg of the Quarter Final of the Champions League against Real [...]

An Arsenal season-definer in North London tonight?

We all know how big this one is for us tonight and if you didn't, then Mikel's selection decisions from last week's draw with Everton showed just how big, with: Partey rested Timber rested Odegaard rested Saka rested Martinelli rested Those are some of your big-impact players right there and for once in his career [...]

Any eyes on Tuesday need to be refocused on Goodison for Arsenal today

It's gotta be a quick one from me today because as I tap away from my keyboard the game is about three hours away, so I'll try to make it snappy (but inevitably won't). Firstly, some props to David Moyes, who joked that he's owed £50million from Arsenal fans because they sold Declan at £100million [...]

Saka’s return brings the boost we need for Fulham

Arteta's words yesterday that Bukayo Saka is "ready to go" were like a perfectly harmonious symphony orchestra delivering their first sweet notes to your years of a summer concert. We've missed the Starboy, we've cried out for his ability to change games, we've longed to see him cut inside and deliver end product for us for [...]

Eyes on the ball (and prize) for Arsenal against PSV tonight

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 [...]

Low key United-Arsenal game that we still need to probably win

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 [...]

PSV preview: Arteta needs attacking answers from his Arsenal players

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 [...]

I think Arteta’s Sterling/Merino decision is closer than we might all think

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 [...]

West Ham under Potter will provide somewhat of an unknown quantity for The Arsenal

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 [...]
