The Arsenal kids are alright, in spit of the media nonsense

Happy Wednesday peeps. How you doing? Are you feeling chipper even though we're on an international break now? I know I still am. Sitting top of the table will do that to you. I think it is because we all know that in reality it won't last, which is why we're maybe taking this 'top [...]

Arsenal knock down another narrative with Brentford win

Yesterday's result felt like yet another milestone, yet another narrative, was  knocked down. On opening day it was the "tough game  under the lights", after five games it was the "yeah but the teams you've played have been rubbish", but yesterday we played a good and in form team, whose fans are bullish, playing them [...]

Arsenal must win all the duels against Brentford

It's finally a Premier League match day again for The Arsenal and I've got that usual feeling of butterflies in the stomach that occur in the morning of a game. All week I've been thinking about Brentford, I've listened to podcast previews, I've ruminated on how the match might unfold and in my head I've [...]

Arteta coy on injuries as usual

Morning folks - we  all good? It was press conference day at The Arsenal yesterday and that meant an opportunity to get some updates from Mikel Arteta on the team, the Queen, as well as our opponents Brentford on Sunday, for which three points is the dream. Unsurprisingly for Arteta he didn't really tell  us [...]

Some rest for some Arsenal players is coming

Morning Gooners and welcome to Friday - hope we're all feeling grand? In the UK it has somewhat unexpectantly become a bank holiday this weekend because of the Queen's funeral, which means I'm up north visiting the in-laws, looking out on to a crystal clear Northumbrian morning as I type today. It's quite peaceful. I [...]

Can Arsenal sustain the good performance levels?

Morning folks and happy Thursday to you. Well, it would be a happy Thursday, were it a match day today, but unfortunately the match against PSV was called off, despite every other Europa League game seemingly go ahead, as well as in the Champions League. Go figure. At least we have the clarity on when the [...]

Marquinhos arrives with an impressive debut

Morning folks - hope you are all well. Before the usual match review stuff today, it is worth taking a moment to celebrate the life of Queen Elizabeth II of the UK, who died yesterday aged 96. I am certainly no royalist or major fan of the Royal Family, but she has always been a [...]

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 [...]

Impressive Arsenal don’t get what they deserve in Manchester

It's a particularly bitter pill to swallow this morning, when thinking about the events that unfolded at Old Trafford yesterday. once again we went up there, once again we were the better team, once again we come back with nothing. The Old Trafford league hoodoo continues and when we next get the chance to go [...]
