Happy Sunday and Happy match day Gooners. It's a bank holiday here in the UK so it's one of those weird Sunday's that actually sort of feel like a Saturday, but they are still a Sunday, so you half feel lazy and half feel like you should be doing your Saturday chores. Except they're already [...]

How much will fatigue play a factor for Arsenal this weekend?

Morning folks and welcome to another Friday. We'll get a Mikel Arteta press conference today and the main question marks will be around who is fit, most notably Bukayo Saka, who Arteta admitted had been carrying a knock last weekend and came off in the win over Man United. Obviously from an Arsenal fan perspective [...]

Praying for Arteta’s admission of errors

There was no press conference yesterday so it'll mean we'll get to hear from Mikel Arteta today and although today is titled 'Good Friday' in the Christin calendar, I'm not expecting any 'good' news from the injury front. I suspect it'll simply be that the players that are injured are still injured, that we have [...]

Unai proves Arsenal are cursed in Europe!

Seeing Unai Emery lift the Europa League Trophy for the fourth time last night, having been to five finals, I couldn't help but wonder: "Are Arsenal ACTUALLY cusrsed in Europe?" This might sound like a bit of a lamenting blog this morning but honestly I am offering up a wry smile as I write it. [...]

My mind is clouded on Arteta

Morning folks. There's been a whole additional 24 hours that have elapsed since the pathetic and limp exit to Villareal in the Europa League and I gotta tell you folks, I feel a lot better in my own head, compared to how I have done over the years.  Not about Arsenal and the position they [...]

Villareal and Emery will look to hit Arsenal on the counter

Well folks, this feels like it could be pretty much it tonight, what it all boils down to and should the worst happen this evening and we sh*t the bed against Unai Emery's Villareal then the season is essentially finished in all but name. It feels like last chance saloon for Mikel and his charges [...]

Arteta should experiment against Newcastle

Before I get into the usual ramblings, have a look at these little beauties from a mate of mine Gav - Arsenal-related beer mats. Kinda funky. There's no update on team news ahead of today's pretty meaningless game away at Newcastle today and given the fact that the club is on a social media blackout [...]

Villareal thoughts: Arteta’s tinkering and Ceballos’ inclusion could cost us

The most positive thing to come from what we witnessed last night was that we are still, somehow, in this tie. That it had to come from a penalty which was, let's face it 'generous' at best, is a real cause for concern and in a semi final of a European competition you really do [...]
