Morning all. December is always a bit of a grind as fixtures come thick and fast and there’s no let up for those competing on all fronts as Arsenal currently are. Our next game at Villa Park will be this Saturday at midday, so precious little recovery time. Therefore after the last three massive […]

Morning all. There’s a full Premier League fixture list this week with last night kicking things off with Bournemouth losing at home to Everton, Newcastle Utd and Totts playing out a 2-2 and Fulham losing 4-5 against Manchester City. Tonight, Arsenal take on Brentford. Five other fixtures are taking place but the one which […]
Morning all. According to ESPN, Arsenal are set to sign 16 year old Ecuadorian twins Edwin and Holger Quintero. Both are at Independiente del Valle right now, the club who once had Piero Hincapie and Moises Caicedo on their books. The report states that the Quintero family have been in London this week to […]
Morning all. The last few days had drawn most of the attention away from yesterday’s clash at the noisy neighbours in Fulham Broadway. The demolition of Tottenham last weekend and the welcome blitz of Bayern in midweek had left us all on cloud nine. But, we knew it was only two thirds of the […]
Morning all. Who would have thought it would be Chelsea hot on our heels in the league as well as Man City and instead of Liverpool. Honestly, I wasn’t sure Arsenal would be top of the table at this stage of the season either. Yes, we had a great summer of transfers but often, […]
Morning all. Arsenal’s record against Bayern Munich has really left a lot to be desired, so much so that I kind of get a feeling that as a club they don’t actually respect Arsenal that much. They don’t see us as a threat and don’t see us as being on the same level as […]
Morning all. I cannot decide what was more amusing about the Man Utd v Everton fixture on Monday night, Idrissa Gueye getting sent off after just 13 minutes for striking team-mate Michael Keane, or Utd going on to lose 1-0 at Old Trafford against ten men. And to think the football media told us […]
Morning all. Before switching to Kev’s match review, no sooner had I asked Alexa to play Radio 1 this morning, “Up The Gunners” boomed back at me. Greg James, an Arsenal fan himself, was talking to today’s quiz contestant, also an Arsenal fan. Another Arsenal fan, Eberechi Eze, stole the show yesterday with his […]
Morning all. What better way is there to return to domestic football than a North London Derby at The Emirates Stadium? This is the fixture both sets of fans look for when the seasons fixtures are released, this and the one at Totts stadium. Arsenal have been good at home, Totts good away from […]
Morning all. I read the news on the clubs official website yesterday afternoon and leaned something new. Mikel Arteta has never lost a north London derby at home, not as a player or manager. That’s quite a record and one I’m sure he’ll want to extend on Sunday afternoon. The Spaniard’s love affair with […]
Morning all. Renée Slegers side did well last night in the Champions League. 1-0 down at home against Real Madrid before an Alessia Russo double secured all three points. Just what the women needed after last weeks surrender of a 2-0 lead against Bayern. Being super critical, we were a bit wasteful in […]
Morning all. One more round of World Cup qualifying fixtures tonight and that’s international football 2025 over and done with. Spain, Denmark and Belgium feature tonight meaning Leandro Trossard, Christian Norgaard, David Raya, Mikel Merino and Martin Zubimendi are likely to be in action. Ecuador have a friendly fixture in the early hours of tomorrow […]
