Morning all. Short posts over the next couple of months as it’s that time of year.. Talking of which, we are just three days away from the transfer window opening for the summer. Rumours will be rife, especially in the striker department. Whilst I know no deal is done until Arsenal.com announce […]

Morning all. Max Dowman, a 15 year Arsenal player already playing for England’s under 17’s and shining. His goal the other night against the Czech Republic was sublime but even though England won, they were knocked out of the Under 17s Euros. Not nice for the players but good for Arsenal as Mikel […]
Morning all. There’s only so many times we can chew over the season gone by. Did Arteta cock things up, injuries, or the officials. A mix of all three perhaps but as suggested the other day, going on about what has been and done will change nothing. Being prepared for the new season is […]
Afternoon guys. When I woke at 5-30am this morning feeling like I’d drank a couple of bottles of the worst red wine in the world the night before, no way was I getting out of bed. Seven hours and four ibuprofen later, it’s still there. Like a hammer squatting in my head. Don’t get […]
Morning all. I enjoyed that game, a lot. Admittedly, it was backs to the wall stuff at times but I expected that. Barcelona are the best in the world and play very good football. Arsenal defended so so well and there were many times during the game when they attacked very well too. Barca hit […]
Morning all. Whilst Mikel Arteta’s men couldn’t quite make to the Champions League Final, Renee Slegers’ side did and that final takes place tonight in Lisbon at 6pm, 5pm UK time. Barcelona are probably the best women’s team in the game right now and have been for while. This is their sixth final […]
Morning all. I read through Mikel Arteta’s pre Southampton press conference yesterday although I’ll be honest, I’m really not fussed about the actual game. Of course I want us to win but there’s little resting on it other than giving the travelling faithful something good to watch. The game is not being shown live […]
Morning all. Last night’s Europa League Final might have been between two clubs who have been little short of dire in the Premier League but for Totts, they’ve got their hands on a trophy after a 17 year wait. I didn’t watch the game, why on earth would I? Apparently, it wasn’t the best […]
Morning all. Interesting comments from Pep Guardiola this morning as Sky Sports quote him as saying he’d quit Man City if his squad is too big. ”As a manager, I cannot train 24 players and every time I select I have to have four, five, six, stay in Manchester at home because they cannot […]
Morning all. Football throws up strange results over a season, after all, who’d have thought Arsenal, with a number of injuries, would have beaten Real Madrid as comfortably as they did? Who’d have thought Man Utd and Totts are set to finish nearer the bottom of the league table than the top, or indeed, […]
Morning all. We needed a win and we got one. 2nd place is ours barring something crazy happening which let’s be honest, isn’t going to. Man City can mathematically overtake us but only if we lose our final game and they win their last two. Even if that scenario played out, City would […]
Morning all. Arsenal play their final home game of the season today. The sun will be shining, the fans in a good mood, no doubt hoping to see the team take three points off of Newcastle United. Both clubs need points to secure Champions League football next season. A win for Mikel Arteta’s team […]
