Morning all. What a day for Japan, Takehiro Tomiyasu and the world of football really. The German team were beaten by pure desire, passion and never giving up. Look at how they left their dressing room. Ex Arsenal player Takuma Asano scored the winner for Japan but...

Morning guys. Well, did you give in, did you tune in to watch England take on Iran? I did and quite enjoyed watching England win 6-2. I caught an interview with an Iranian women before the game and she said her teams ‘Iranianess’ would help her country...

Morning all. It’s official, Arsenal will be top of the League on Christmas Day. We knew that before the match against Wolves kicked off though because Brentford had beaten Man City 2-1 at The Etihad. Just to make sure though, Mikel Arteta’s men beat...

Morning all. Losing is never nice but if there’s one competition I personally didn’t give a hoot about at the beginning of the season, it’s the League Cup. A trophy is nice but this particular one doesn’t even reward the winners with a...

Morning all. Arsenal kick off the 2022/23 League Cup campaign against Brighton tonight at The Emirates. This is Brighton’s second fixture of the competition, beating Forest Green Rovers 3-0 in the last round. I wondered if this would be the competition in...

Morning all. Of all the things going on in football, Mikel Arteta going on a walk about seems to be a big problem for Richard Keys. What a plonker, but then he did suggest when we win, we’re lucky but when Man City needed a penalty which really never should...
