Social media - Twitter specifically - enabled me to meet a lot of the friends I now know well and when we can get back to the Emirates I will be joining to watch the games regularly. It has been valuable for me in that regard. But unfortunately I do despair of it at times. [...]
Howdy folks and welcome to another midweek of jam-packed football action, which continues for us tomorrow evening with the home visit of Molde to The Arsenal. I suspect Mikel will take to the virtual stage and I think the key questions he'll be asked should centre around his team selection tomorrow night, because whilst Molde [...]
Morning all and welcome to the gateway to the weekend: Friday. These Friday's have become familiar to us, when we have to digest and dissect a game last night in the Europa League and thankfully, for the second week in a row, it is a victory that we are thinking about. Dundalk were dispatched with [...]
Morning all and welcome to matchday Thursday. Now, there are two schools of thought when it comes to how we approach today's game: Name a strong team, batter our opponent, then sub off as many key players as possible for Sunday's game away to Man United Name a completely rotated side, run the risk of [...]
Morning all and welcome to another middle of the week nothing-a-thon. I am of course talking about Arsenal and perhaps unsurprisingly given the general level of malaise felt around our performance last weekend, it is all a little quiet from the club at the moment. I'm kinda ok with that though. Long gone are the [...]
Guten morgen folks and welcome to Europa League matchday. Right, plenty to be talking about, so let's get straight to it, starting briefly with Mesut Ozil and his statement I'm starting with this because if I'm honest it has been done to death and I don't really want to dwell too much on it. He [...]
I know you don't want to read another piece banging on about Mesut Ozil and I certainly don't want to write a piece on it, so I won't, but I do need to quickly pick up on the comments that have come from Big Per Mertesacker that emerged yesterday. I think it was on a [...]
Morning gooners and welcome to another week. Last night I made a roast dinner which took a while as it was roast pork, but during said meal preparation, I decided to watch the Tiny Totts against West Ham. I missed the start but managed to switch on right at the moment in which the Totts [...]
Imagine how great it must be to know that the probability of your team getting a penalty is at least every other game? That's what United have been treated to this season as, yet again, a penalty went their way. A very, VERY, soft penalty that I'd wager for seven or eight teams out of [...]
It’s cup final day and I am a very nervous man. Today’s game isn’t just the last game of the season, it isn’t just about a shiny silver trinket, it is also a financially and footballisticly significant crossroads the club finds itself in. I so desperately want us to win the FA Cup today. But [...]
