Well, that went well yesterday, didn't it? Eventually, I mean, because the first half was a little ropey and we had to come from behind to hit top spot in the league. But a bit like a fine port, it took a little time but the end result was a fine flavour and I thoroughly [...]
We're still stuck here. Stuck in the midsts of an international break and this right now is the worst possible part of it. In the first week of these dreaded things, there are a few Arsenal-related bits to chew on, but also the weekend as a distraction, but by the time the Monday hits us [...]
It's a trip for me and the better half today up to Lancashire to watch The Arsenal take on Burnley at Turf Moor and with City and the Tiny Totts playing each other today, it's also an opportunity to close some ground on now of those teams at least, so we need to take advantage [...]
Howdy friend, I hope you're good on this Monday, in which we all start our respective working week with a swing in our step after the 4-1 win away t Hull. I'm feeling chipper, although not as much as I'd like to be, on account of a dodgy bit of McDonald's I had on Friday, [...]
I could really do without more stories about Jamie Vardy and Arsenal now, y'know? The latest one we have to endure is that he wasn't convinced That Arsenal's possession-based football would suit him. I kinda get that, to be honest, but I am surprised that he doesn't feel confident enough in his own ability to [...]
It's Tuesday morning, I'm on my way into The Big Smoke, with the topic of conversation between myself and myself this morning being on false dawns and fabulous successes when it comes to young players. I can tell you one thing right now: I couldn't spot a superstar at a young age if I tried. [...]
Well, yesterday was a bit more fun, wasn't it? Four goals, dominant throughout, an Arsenal team with fluidity and movement and some very promising performances. Yessir, we can all be happy after a game like that, can't we? And yet, despite my pleasure at being able to actually watch Match of the Day yesterday evening, [...]
Howdy there fellow Arsenal fan and welcome to Sunday, a day made infinitely more enjoyable as a result of Arsenal managing to dispatch Everton at Goodison Park yesterday. Boy, doesn't it feel good to see The Arsenal play well, score goals and look like a team with purpose, eh? Marvellous stuff. All week I've been [...]
I found yesterday's game against Sunderland fascinating, I must say, looking back on the game in the cold light of a January's Sunday. Fascinating from before the first whistle was even sounded, because of the pre-match pressers of both gaffers, followed by the subsequent reality of the teams that they put out. In the build [...]
The two bits of key news that came out yesterday included a bit of a blow, injury wise, as well as a bit of clarity on where Le Boss' mindset is with regards to who will occupy the right-wing spot for the immediate future given our lengthy injury list. Firstly, the injuries, which are a bitter [...]
