Bleugh. Drank too much last night and here I sit on a Sunday morning with a mixture of sore head through too much red wine, as well as butterflies in my stomach through what will transpire later on this afternoon, for which I need not remind you. It all comes down to this. As Arsenal [...]
I saw a post from somebody I follow on Twitter yesterday and they said that they simply aren't feeling the nerves ahead of Sunday. I also listened to the Arsenal Vision podcast yesterday on my run and Clive was talking about how emotionally he had just put a bit of a pin in his feelings [...]
Do you know what's funny? This time last week my mind was full of positivity and basking in the glow of a post-Liverpool victory. That win felt massive, it felt huge, because we'd beaten a team who were on a fantastic run and who many thought that a draw would be alright for The Arsenal. [...]
Well what a result that was for The Arsenal yesterday, eh? It was a performance that had everything: control, goals, returning player narratives, screamers, ole's from the away fans, the lot. If you ask me what the perfect away day looks like, it would be what those Arsenal players delivered at the London Stadium in [...]
It's match day and after last weekend's high, anything other than a win today will make that feel like quite a fruitless exercise. Last weekend we worked so hard to get back to touching difference and asper expectations, yesterday all of the results went the way we expected and now we find ourselves five points [...]
Morning folks and welcome to Saturday. We've still got over 24 hours until we rock up at The London Stadium (one of the worst to get in and out of I've ever experienced, I have to say) and yesterday Arteta was doing his usual press conference stuff in the afternoon to give us an insight [...]
Morning folks. Happy Friday - hope you're all good? We did an interesting pod last night with Alan Alger and Anthony Gale (son of Tony Gale, ex-West Ham player), which was a match preview, a bit of discussion over xG and its uses, as well as the over celebration discussion that has been rumbling on [...]
Morning Gooners, we all good? Do you know? I don't think I've basked enough since Sunday. I mentioned it yesterday in the blog but in reality I watched the game, I got home, quickly wolfed down some food, went on the Same Old Arsenal pod to talk about it, then watched Match of the Day, [...]
This feels like a big one for us tonight, because after Liverpool's win and City getting helped by officials for their second goal yesterday, anything other than three points at The Emirates this evening will feel like we've lost a bit of ground on the main protagonists around us this season. West Ham at home [...]
Yesterday I drove up to see the Management's family for our 'part two' of Christmas and as we travelled up I decided to flick on the radio to have a listen to the Newcastle v Forest game. I do love the Christmas period because aside from Christmas Day, there is football on basically all the [...]
