Morning all. Finally, points on the board and all three after yesterday’s victory over West Ham. It was hard work though, especially the viewing. Saying that, I knew we’d won when I sat down to watch on Sky Sports last night so that took away a lot of the panic when time after time the […]

Morning all. Third game in, second one at The Emirates and all being well, it’ll be packed with Arsenal fans in full voice. Not a long journey for the away team and on their bus will be Jack Wilshere who for the first time in his career will be facing the club he grew up […]
Football is a cruel game. As if Unai Emery didn’t already have enough on his plate, the Premier League fixtures were released and threw up 2017/2018 champions Manchester City at the Emirates followed by a new look Chelsea team away at Stamford Bridge. In the opening fixture, Arsenal struggled to contain a Manchester City team […]
Afternoon all. Injury news is in and basically no-one is back anytime soon but the good news is we’ve no new injuries after the Chelsea game. Another Unai Emery Press Conference has been held and I bet he’s desperate to face the media with a victory together with a much improved performance under his belt. […]
Morning all. This one goes on a bit… Monday night football turned into fight night, verbally speaking I mean as that chump Carragher went head to head with Gary Neville, a bloke I dislike slightly less. Thanks to Sky Sports, I’ve copied and pasted the entire debate just in case you haven’t seen it, here’s […]
Morning all. Not for one minute do I believe that another clubs loss justifies our own but come on, seeing Utd under Jose Mourinho get battered by Brighton is funny. No, it’s hilarious, great and boy I laughed. This is a bloke who labels himself ‘The Special One’, the same bloke who has spend millions […]
Morning all. Away at Chelsea, always a tough place to go and a place we seldom come away from with much. Yesterday was no exception. Right now it seems arsenal are stuck on pause. Defending is calamitous, our finishing is really poor and although we lost, once again we’re scratching our heads wondering how. With […]
Morning all. I thought once the club had a new manager etc my passion for the game would return but in all honesty, it hasn’t. I don’t know why though and that’s the hardest bit to understand. I’ve always loved the game, played it too for many years, albeit at a very low level I […]
Afternoon all. It is fair to say that new Arsenal boss Unai Emery really has his work cut out to bring Arsenal back to the glory days in the wake of Arsene Wenger’s departure. Unlike most new managers, Emery is charged with the task of overhaul almost every aspect of the club, in order to […]
Morning all. By the end of September 2016, he’d won all of his first 10 matches in charge and his team were top of the Premier League table with a four-point advantage over second-place. He lost his first match against the team in second place just before the international break but remained in top spot. […]
Morning all. Arsenal have picked up plenty of cheap signings over the years. Mikael Silvestre is one of the first to spring into my mind, Andre Santos, Sebastien Squillaci, Park Chu-Young, Manuel Almunia, Bishcoff, Kallstom and many more during his final ten years. Some he actually paid money for and yes, it’s frightening isn’t it. I […]
Morning all. Well that was a disappointment but let’s be honest, Man City were the worst side we could have come up against on the opening day of the season, even if Pep didn’t have every player available to him. He’s had two seasons now with Man City, most of his players have been under […]
