Making the case to strike fast for the three most obvious Arsenal attacking options

I basically refuse to acknowledge there is any football going on from now until August 16th when the new Premier League season kicks off. Nothing. Nada. Zip. Zero. It's all about the transfer window and ABSOLUTELY NOTHING ELSE.  The press is full of talk of strikers and if Arsenal value anything of the health of its [...]

Other teams get to do transfers too

You know it's funny, I get so focus and insular on Arsenal and improvements that we make, that I forget that other teams will also be making efforts to improve their squad in the summer. I didn't watch the Brighton-Liverpool game, but I saw that Arne Slot was doing his bit to stoke the transfer [...]

Arteta and Andrea’s Arsenal’s alignment

I thought we saw a relatively relaxed Mikel Arteta at his press conference yesterday. I wonder if it was the sun, the fact that he was starting to get over recent disappointments, the tone of the questioning, or maybe it was that he got to deliver good news to the media on Kai Havertz. Naturally [...]

The ‘Meh’ – Part I

In what will inevitably now feel like the longest end to a Premier League season ever, Mikel Arteta will today be subjected to quite a painful press conference experience, I'd wager. Not only does he have to sit in front of the press and talk about the fallout from the PSG defeat and exit in [...]

Arsenal need to capitalise on their current standing in the game

With all of the noise around the Madrid win still beautifully ringing in our collective ears, it's easy to forget that we have another game in to days time, which will be the trip to Portman Road to take on the Tractor Boys. As it's Good Friday, I wondered whether we'd have a Mikel Arteta [...]

Leveraging big Champions League nights to get new deals for Arsenal players

I don't know about you, but I'm still basking, re-living, re-loving the game from Tuesday night. I had a work thing on yesterday afternoon and evening, so couldn't engage with any of the other Champions League games that were on last night. But I don't care. I don't want the burden of more football discolouring [...]

Arsenal Women pave the path; Zubimendi walking it to Real?

By |2025-03-27T08:12:36+00:00March 27th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Transfers, Champions League, midfield, Transfers|0 Comments

Don't think there's any other place to start today than to congratulate the Arsenal Women for overturning a 2-0 away first leg defeat to Real Madrid, to win 3-0 with those second half goals to send the Emirates wild last night on full time. Fair do's to the ladies, because in a similar vein to [...]

Trent situation a cautionary tale for The Arsenal

By |2025-03-26T08:21:30+00:00March 26th, 2025|Arsenal, Arsenal FC, Arsenal Manager, Arsenal Transfers, History, Mikel Arteta, premier league, Transfers|0 Comments

I see that the Scousers are all getting a bit heated of Trent leaving for Real in the summer. As Arsenal fans, we of all people know the pains of contracts being run down - or the perception of it - so rather than banter them off I'm offering a little sympathy this morning I [...]

Projecting an Arsenal conspiracy theory – MLS, Calafiori and Gabriel’s futures linked?

I watched about 10 minutes of the England game last night, just before Declan Rice made the assist for some unknown footballer who I willst not name, mainly to get five to ten minutes of seeing Myles Lewis-Skelly at this level. From a confidence perspective clearly he doesn't lack that and you could absolutely tell [...]
