Arsène's press conference today will be interesting, not least because despite strongly hinting at rotation for this European competition we find ourselves in this season, we still don't categorically know just how much rotation the manager intends on tomorrow evening against Cologne. Is he going to go the whole hog and switch the entire team [...]
I'm not sure if Arsène Wenger's interview with BeIn Sports is one that was taken a while ago and now being released in snippets, but he's had some more things to say about the summer, transfer windows and such like. I think I personally am running out of steam to listen to his spin if [...]
Sunday's during an interlude eh, the sweet sound of nothingness, which is just what you need when you're an Arsenal fan right now. except there isn't quite nothingness, there's the old chestnut of 'footballer saying things on international duty' and this time it's the turn of Mesut Ozil, who has had his say on former [...]
Hello. How are you doing? Hopefully you are holding up ok? Given the circumstances? After all, three months ago you were told that Arsenal had a 'war chest' of around £200million to spend. You were fed lines by those who are used as PR mouthpieces for the club who you might not blame for the [...]
These Friday games, eh? It's like some sort of footballing jet lag with press conferences on a Wednesday, the match on a Friday after a long gruelling week of work and the decisions on whether to drink in the City or closer to The Emirates, all conspiring to make this the most unusual of season [...]
Happy Friday bestowed unto thee. I hope yours is joyful and flavoursome ahead of the weekend. Mine will mostly be spent at home trying to make sense of the incremental weather conditions and watching our Emirates Cup games on Quest, that most random of "if there's nothing else on normal telly" channels that exist. Hey, [...]
It's funny how rumour and speculation can send some football fans mad with anger. Every summer there is a transfer rumour either in or out that clearly isn't on the cards, yet people go bonkers over it for a period of time, then a week later have forgotten all about it. That's kind of how [...]
Another day and another Kylian Mbappe story, as each journalist desperately tries to re-hash the same transfer, but with a new spin on it. We've had the initial interest, the 'Wenger in France', the Real Madrid intrigue, the 'family member talks' and now we're at what is usually the final stages, which is the 'increasingly [...]
How the flibberdee gibbet did that happen? Where on earth did that performance from Arsenal come come? What. The. Actual. Fugg. I turned up early at JJ Moons because I thought I needed to drown my sorrows before the game had even started. I spent four and a half hours telling people we didn't have [...]
I've been thinking, right... Dangerous, I know, but hear me out with this. Maybe the Europa League for next season isn't that bad after all? I know, I know, there are plenty of reasons to be pretty perturbed by it. For one thing until we get to the quarter finals we won't play a team [...]
