Morning all. Mikel Arteta asked for the fans to be inside The Emirates early, he asked for them to be heard – they didn’t disappoint. North London Forever could be heard loud, no doubt sang with pride. This was a big night for Arsenal Football Club, a big night for the players and fans. […]

Morning all. Arsenal currently sit second in the Premier League table, which bearing in mind so much has gone against us this season, it’s quite remarkable. More remarkable is reaching the Champions League quarter-final, as well as the way we’ve done it. The players have played really well and considering the clubs in this […]
Morning all. Well that was a bit disappointing wasn’t it? We were all over Everton when Leandro Trossard scored a lovely goal and afterwards, Everton looked like a team full of players thinking about which sunny resort to visit this summer. That was until the referee decided to give them a reason to […]
Morning all. It’s been a strange old week in the footballing world, one dominated by the officials and the mistakes they’ve made. Moyes was cheesed off about Liverpool’s goal being allowed to stand when there was a clear offside missed, Slot was annoyed because Tarkowski got away with a booking instead of being sent […]
Morning all. April the 3rd and the league challenge is over for Arsenal, just as it is for the other eighteen clubs in the Premier League of course but it seems only Arsenal come under constant scrutiny each week. Probably because going into the seventh transfer window since Mikel Arteta became manager, the […]
Morning all. It was the night Bukayo Saka returned….. I didn’t watch the game, just the briefest of highlights. Any three points at this stage of the season when securing second place is the best Arsenal can realistically achieve domestically are welcome. Mikel Merino scored our opening goal before the boy wonder […]
Morning all. It’s been three months since Bukayo Saka suffered a hamstring injury against Crystal Palace but now, after surgery and recovery, he’s back. He’s ready to start according to Mikel Arteta: Bukayo is ready to go! All the careful things he’s already done, so now it’s about putting him on the grass in […]
Morning all. I thought it was the 1st April when Arsenal made an announcement about pre-season. Our men’s first team will play our north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur in Hong Kong on Thursday, July 31 as part of our preparations for the 2025/26 season. The match, which kicks off at 7.30pm local time (11.30am […]
Afternoon all. Arsenal Football Club has today announced that Andrea Berta is the new Sporting Director. He’s been at a number of clubs over years including his last cub, Atletico Madrid. Experience, knowledge and reputation comes with him. Edu had a tough job on his hands just a few years ago when he […]
Morning all. I don’t often write about the Arsenal women game because I know women’s football is not for everyone but what Renee Slegers team did last night was brilliant. Trailing 2-0 from the first leg of this tie against Real Madrid, they needed a big win if they were to progress any […]
Morning all. Myles Lewis-Skelly started again for England last night and by all accounts, he played well. Declan Rice too and it was he who provided Kane with the easiest of finishes. I watched some of the game but another 90 minutes of watching England soon went out the window. Most of our […]
Morning all. I’ve just been watching ITV’s Big Match Revisited. The game was between Newcastle United and Manchester United with snow on the ground and the players wearing the shortest of shorts and some of the Newcastle players with short sleeved shirts on. Nowadays, the game would be called off I’m sure. […]
