A defeat Arsenal are oddly Ok with?

Tis' an odd feeling indeed to view an FA Cup defeat with so little despair, but as I write this morning I feel oddly fine about the fact that we went out by an odd goal to Manchester City at the Etihad last night. What is also odd, however, is that looking at my Twitter [...]

Morning morning Gooners, hope you’re all feeling fan-dabby-dozy on this here Thursday morn? Todays blog is coming to you from inside a BA aircraft, as we take a wee short trip up to Northumberland for The Management’s family birthday dinner on Saturday night. Annoyingly, it means that I can’t make my way up to the [...]

Good morning morning, from a wonderfully sunny Maldives, which is roasting hot too as well as being stunningly beautiful. With all this beauty around me there’s clearly only one thing on my mind, which is: I wonder whether Emile Smith Rowe is fit enough to start this evening? You can take the Gooner out of [...]

Happy Tuesday folks, hope you're having a good one and you're planning on making this a great day. We only get so many of them on this planet so try to make as many of them as memorable as possible. Difficult without the footy, granted, but at least the matches are stacking up now and [...]

It may be Tuesday, it may be three days since the North London Derby, but I'm still soaking up all of the #content I can find. I've been playing the Peter Drury commentary of the goals and the full time whistle this morning. Google  it or search for it on twitter, you'll find it and [...]

Is it time for the ‘after Partey’?

Couple of days away from blogging for me over the last two; the first was because of a super-early get up to head off to an all company away day and so I didn't have the chance to, but the second - yesterday - was due in large part to the big hangover I had [...]

Mikel, please, rotation this evening!

I think with that title I've made my thoughts about what we should do this evening very plain and clear!! Tonight we're back in action on the European stage and whilst it's not the stage we want - and probably deserve - it is an opportunity for some more midweek football and I have to [...]

Looking at Sambi Lokonga’s development minutes

Howdy y'all, how we doing? Well I'm feeling fine, thank ye' kindly. It's Wednesday, we have a game tomorrow, the possibility to expunge the bitter taste from Sunday is upon us. I'm kind of also interested to see a slightly different line up tomorrow and for me the Europa League represents an opportunity to get [...]

Midfield is key for Arsenal at Old Trafford

Might be a bit of a short one today as I need to head off to London to do a spot of shopping and meet a few friends for lunch and I'm running a little late, but I wanted to pen some pre-United match thoughts on here before I toddle off. Firstly, having watched some [...]

Is overcoming the scars of Old Trafford easier for Arsenal players than fans?

Howdy friends, how are we all doing? Looking forward to the game tomorrow? Not me, I have to say, because I've thoroughly enjoyed the bliss of five consecutive victories and the thought that it might come crashing down against United - like it always seems to when we go up there - makes me a [...]
