Now the dust has finally settled on last season we can look back, through specs of a varying hue and consider what we saw and what, if any, conclusions we might draw. Overall it was painful, excruciatingly so, yet not without its highlights along the way. We began shakily unprepared as if nobody actually realised […]

Morning all. Forget the price because that the game as it is today. Ridiculous and totally unjustified but it is what it is. Arsenal haven’t helped themselves over the years either because as Arsene Wenger has been frugal, the money in our personal bank has grown and grown. Everyone out there in the game knows […]
Morning all. Who said summer could be put on halt for one day eh?? Rain? Come on it’s June, Wimbledon is just around the corner and as quick as it came along together with a few rumblings of thunder, it can buzz off again. I’ll admit, it’s nice to have a cooler night but we […]
Morning all. Barcelona midfielder Denis Suarez has reignited speculation regarding Hector Bellerin’s future, suggesting that the defender remains open to the prospect of re-joining the Camp Nou club. Despite claiming a second FA Cup winners’ medal in three years, Bellerin has been continuously linked with a move away from the Arsenal with the player said […]
Morning all. My word it’s quiet this time of the year. Well, as far as Arsenal goes but there’s still plenty of football going on, certainly for a few of he under 21’s. Calum Chambers, Rob Holding, Hector Bellerin and Krystian Bielik are all in Poland trying to win the Euros which concludes on the 30th […]
Morning all. This time last year, many of us remained hopeful that we’d start the new season with a different manager at the helm despite Arsene Wenger having one more year left on his contract. It wasn’t to be but there was a light at the end of the tunnel regardless as surely at his […]
Morning all. It seems HH has had a mind of its own over the last couple of days. Goodness only knows what that was all about but it seems the format has returned to as it should be. The most exciting news relating to football has been the release of the 2017/18 league fixtures and […]
Morning all. As we already know, Ashley Maitland-Niles and Reiss Nelson have been added to the first team squad for next season and as far as I know, they are the only two. Krystian Bielik is being linked to Norwich City on a season long loan and there’s little doubt that many more of the younger […]
Morning all. Sead Kolasinac is in the bag, our first signing of this most important transfer window and on a Bosman free. A shiny five year deal done and dusted. I’ve seen a bit of him on the Bundesliga highlights show on TV, presented by some interesting blond Fraulein and he looks one tough hombre. He has […]
Morning all. Thank goodness for Twitter eh. Young Hector Bellerin has used the social media website to assure us Arsenal fans that he’s going nowhere. A simple message read: ‘Don’t believe all you read’ which clearly refers to the recent stories in the press which suggest he’s about to jump ship and head back home […]
Morning all. Sections of the Arsenal fan base are giddy with excitement at the prospect of Arsenal breaking the world transfer record to sign Monaco wunderkind Kylian Mbappe. The club had an initial bid of £87 million rejected by the French champions, but the rumour mill went into overdrive this week when Arsene Wenger and […]
Morning all. When Big Sol made the move across north London he didn’t cost Arsenal a penny, not in transfer fees anyway and I don’t recall reading any negative comments about the signing. We all knew exactly the kind of player we were getting. Big, strong and hard as nails, a player who would put […]
