An Un-Arteta-like performance, but grinding out a win can’t be sniffed at

There's two things you absolutely cannot do in life: Look a gift horse in the mouth Scoff at three points at Old Trafford There's plenty of time for us to all look at the performance, the individual clunkiness of some of the players and the fact that this felt like a very 'Un-Arteta'-like Arsenal performance, [...]

Arteta’s options show our strength – we need to prove it against Man United

Here we are folks - it's match day! And what a start we have to it, eh? United away. I know they won't be the force of 20 years ago, or even five years ago, but this is still Man United and it's still a place that hasn't been a happy hunting ground for us [...]

Here we go folks. The Premier League all kicks off this evening with the Scousers beating Bournemouth at home as they get a relatively comfortable home game to get themselves going. Us? Well, we know we have to wait and we know we have to play Man United at their gaff knowing all of the [...]

Looking over at other clubs’ gardens

Ok, I just want the season up and running now, as I'm becoming a bit impatient and I'm needing to not have the 'feelings' that I've got. Those 'feelings' are the ones that are irrational and based on the fact that because nobody has really kicked a ball in anger yet, every other team has [...]

Eze could become the ‘sour taste in the mouth’

Let's do some 'real talk' here, shall we? Because it looks like - if Fabrizio Romano is to be believed - that the Scum are advancing talks ahead of us to get Eze out of Palace. The 'real talk' bit is that as much as many of us would like to, there'll be no rowing [...]

The dominoes need to fall for Arsenal if Eze is to become a ‘thing’

The sheer volume of cash that floats around the Premier League is mental, isn't it? I mean, when you get newly promoted Sunderland about to drop £51million plus add-ons (because you have to always talk about the add-ons these days, it seems) for Lois Openda from RB Leipzig, it really hits home. This is a [...]

Arsenal Women win the Euro’s as Dowman wows Asia

I'll get into the Arsenal men's teams' second win of pre season after a somewhat feisty encounter in Singapore against Newcastle yesterday lunchtime UK time, but before all of that, let's have a word or two to say about the fabulous England Lionesses, who retained the Euro trophy on penalties by defeating Spain in the [...]

Arsenal get most difficult possible start – how important is momentum?

Morning folks and welcome to Thursday. It's another glorious day in London today, so I'm bringing my work stuff into the garden and do a proper old school "shall we take our workbooks outside, kids" situation for my working day. Screw it, life is too short. I wonder if that's how Mudryk is feeling today. [...]

Williams to Barca, but Martinelli posts up just as well…

It's funny, you know, because whilst lots of people have been hot on Nico Williams, that has never really permeated the football side of my brain. So when Ornstein drops a confirmation that Williams wants Barcelona and that Barca are sorting out the details on a deal, I say "absolutely fine by me". I think [...]
