Leaving the Emirates last night, after Arsenal had blitzed Aston Villa over 95+ minutes, I’m sure I wasn’t the only Gooner thinking “that’s more like it” as I queued for the Victoria Line at Highbury & Islington. One swallow does not a summer make and one performance does not a ‘click’ or ‘turnaround’ materialise, but [...]
Happy matchday folks. Hope you and yours are well. It's two in a week for us; feels almost like the old days of the Europa League and Champions League, eh? Those feelings of playing every few days may have gone, but at least we've had a fair few like that with the League Cup and [...]
Still worried about Aston Villa’s continuous bidding for Emile Smith Rowe. Hopefully Arsenal get that contract signed soon.
Welp, the fixtures are out and the football karma gods clearly had a look at my plea for us to get a relatively serene start in terms of calibre of opposition, then kick that hope right in the nuts. That's because from 14th August until the beginning of October we have six football matches and [...]
Morning all, hope you are all splendid today and feeling bright as a button for this latest week of rumour, counter-rumour, rage, fear and general angst that comes with a summer Arsenal transfer window. A summer in which - like every summer window since social media turned transfers into an opportunity to shout at a [...]
So the ol' Emi Buendia rumours are hotting up and that man the AFCBell appears to once again be on the case, saying that a bid was submitted and subsequently rejected for the Argentine playmaker. There's a few ways to look at this news, if of course it is true, that is. Firstly, Arsenal are [...]
I didn't blog yesterday on account of a bit of a stinking hangover, but also I didn't really have much motivation after that disappointing performance against Aston Villa on Saturday lunchtime. I did however put the football on whilst I was cooking yesterday, so was able to see Liverpool get utterly beat up against a [...]
It's match day people! How we feeling? Excited? Nervous? Terrified? I must admit to you that I have a nervous excitement about today. The Wolves game may have repeated on me like a bit of dodgy cucumber, but that first half felt good, like it could be the start of something. New beginnings and all [...]
Morning folks and happy Saturday unto thee. I went to bed at 12am last night having taken receipt of a beer machine that allows you to put a can or bottle in a portable tap thing, then pour a draught pint, but unfortunately my body clock does not afford me a lie in these days, [...]
That was a disgusting performance last night from Arsenal. It was cowardly, lacked intensity and, frankly, should be worthy of some serious examination and change by the club in the cold light of day this morning. If last week it was time to hold our hands up and admit that Arteta got the approach and [...]
