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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
Do you know one of the reasons I could never live in the West Coast of the US? The times in which I'd have to get up to watch The Arsenal. Honestly, for those of you out there, I must pay my respects, because getting up in the middle of the early hours of the [...]
I understand that for many people today's topic is a rather controversial one. This weekend's Premier League matches, and indeed all football matches, have been postponed as a mark of respect for the sad passing of Queen Elizabeth II. I have seen online and on TV of how this has impacted people and for some [...]
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 [...]
Morning Gooners, welcome to Tuesday, a grizzly one in London which you'd expect that to be the mood after losing up in Manchester yet again. But it kind of isn't. I've woken up this morning thinking about that game and thinking "that kind of result doesn't happen that way nine out of ten times". I [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
