Morning all. There are several cracking fixtures this weekend, our own for one against Aston Villa at 5-30pm tomorrow evening. Earlier in the day, Bournemouth take on Newcastle Utd at St James Park before Liverpool face Brentford at the Gtec Stadium at 3pm. Nottingham Forest play Southampton at home on Sunday whilst Man City […]
Morning all. This one was a must win match but not just because of the title race but because it was red v white. The chance to do the double over our North London rivals. Who knows, we might get an opportunity to make it three in a season should we beat Newcastle in […]
Morning all. David Ornstein confirmed yesterday that Arsenal are pursuing a deal to sign midfielder Martin Zubimendi from Real Sociedad next summer. The move for the 25-year-old has been worked on for a considerable time. Ornstein goes on to suggest Mikel Arteta is the key driver behind a pursuit that was reinvigorated in the process […]
Morning all. Ahead of tomorrow nights North London Derby, Mikel Arteta has been talking to the media. Although he did not confirm it, Gabriel Jesus is likely to be ruled out for the rest of the season with suspected ACL injury. Should that injury be confirmed, I think we can forget about seeing […]
Morning all. I’ve said before that each time Arsenal start a new game I hope that this is the one when everything clicks into place. The passing improves, the movement off the ball less static, our general play more dynamic and our finishing more clinical. However, we’re in January, nearly six months […]
Morning all. Arsenal take on Manchester Utd this afternoon in what has been described as being a potential mouthwatering clash between two clubs who have lifted the FA Cup more times than most. Arsenal, more than any other club with Utd just one behind. I’m far from convinced the match will be a […]
Morning all. Football is a funny old game isn’t it? One day, any one team can be brilliant, the next, bang average. Look at Utd so far this season, they’ve been pretty poor to say the least but just as I thought Liverpool were going to give them a good hiding, they turned up […]
Morning all. A headline on Sky Sports yesterday read “Isak’s time to show Arsenal what they are missing” and he did. Would I like Arsenal to break the bank to sign him? Absolutely not because as good as he is, he’s often injured. Not that I think he would be interested in switching […]
Morning all. What a week ahead for Arsenal. The first of a two-legged semi-final in the League Cup against Newcastle Utd tonight, then on Sunday we face Man Utd in the FA Cup and then a week today we face Totts in the second north London derby of the season. It’s football every three […]
Morning all. As feared, Thomas Partey started at left back and to be fair to him, he did well but as suggested before, his absence from midfield was an issue. Jorginho simply cannot do what a fully fit and healthy Partey does. Kai Havertz was still poorly so he was nowhere to […]
Morning all. I was talking to a Man Utd fan yesterday, one of the nicest ones I’ve ever met I hasten to add. We had a bit of a laugh at each other’s expense about our respective clubs before he said something along the lines of “if Arsenal had a top-notch striker, […]
Morning all. What a great way to start 2025 as far as Arsenal is concerned. Mikel Arteta opted to give Riccardo Calafiori a start yesterday with Myles Lewis-Skelly on the bench. I’m sure a number of Arsenal fans expected to see Gabriel Martinelli on the right but no, 17 year old Ethan Nwaneri […]
