Greetings from a warm and sunny Maldives. The Management and I arrived yesterday and have a week away from the cold weather in the UK, which is lovely, although it has it's drawbacks as I had to give up my ticket for the Palace game yesterday, which was the evening over here. And as I [...]
I watched last night's game from my parents house sat alongside another Gooner and, quite unusually for me, a Liverpool fan. He was my teenage Godson and at 15 he could do a fair bit of talking, so I was somewhat apprehensive of another potential defeat at Anfield. He'd already talked up Klopp as the [...]
We're nearly there folks...closing down on exiting this interminable international break and we can get our focus back to Everton on Sunday, which will be a tough trip as it always is for us, having not won there in what feels like a bazillion years. Hopefully we'll also have the benefit of having Gabriel back [...]
I want to talk more about Arsenal related stuff and I of course will do that today, but before that let's take a moment to recognise the incompetence of the refereeing in last night's game at Old Trafford. Quite how Simon Hooper and his VAR officials didn't come to a conclusion that Wolves should have [...]
Morning folks, how we all doing? I didn't get around to penning any thoughts yesterday about the game, on account of the stinking hangover, followed by having the parents over and then trying to trudge my way around a golf course first thing yesterday, so I thought today I'd reflect a little on the weekend's [...]
Mercifully, instead of putting myself through the inevitable torture of expecting a depleted West Ham side to show anything like the level of fight back and drive they showed against us just a few short weeks ago, I didn't watch anything of the City game last night and just saw that at the end they [...]
Pre game yesterday the nerves had returned. I was in the pub talking to the lads and I had the not-very-nice feeling that there could be a banana skin being placed before us in the shape of Chelsea. They had some injuries, they were woefully out of form, they had a manager in Frank Lampard who clearly [...]
This is the worst part of the international break. It really is - as Arseblog puts it - the 'Interlull'. Eng-ger-land might have played yesterday, Harry Kane might have got himself another individual accolade in a team sport (well done Harry, hope you keep up your record in cup competitions too), but frankly I couldn't give [...]
Well now, I must confess, I didn't expect to get such a comfortable afternoon for the Arsenal players in West London yesterday, that's for sure. Fulham were a side difficult to play against, especially on their own ground, with a week off and us having travelled to Portugal to play midweek too. This felt like [...]
Happy Saturday you wonderful people. It might be an Arsenal-less one, but hopefully you can find enough enjoyable other things in your life to have a good one nonetheless. The good news from an Arsenal perspective today is that Gabriel - the big one at centre half - confirmed that he’s signed a new deal [...]
