Morning all. Carl Jenkinson has reportedly signed a new five year contract. Well I for one am chuffed to bits. He had a good season for West Ham and enjoyed being a regular starter and clearly benefitted from being trusted to play under Big Sam. But clearly not just Sam thought a lot of Jenks as […]

Morning all. I hope Ivan Gazidis has stayed at home with the AFC cheque book at the ready! One player not on the plane is Yaya Sanogo and according to reports in Holland, he’s heading out on loan to Dutch giants Ajax and the deal should be confirmed by the end of the week. Well Dennis […]
Hello you fine folk….. I’d like to think you’ve missed me but I know you haven’t. Wath has done a great job, he always does…. Yes I know, I’m lucky, well, you lot are as without him, you’d all be bored looking a week old post every day! Once we had Mad Jens, a goal […]
Morning all. Back in 2001 and on this very day, Big Sol switched North London Clubs and became an Arsenal player. That didn’t go down very well with the neighbours did it and what a cheeky move by Arsene Wenger eh and probably one of the best defenders he’s signed during his time as Arsenal […]
Morning all. What a shocker that was eh… With just seconds to go and with the scores level, England Ladies were heading into extra time in a game they really could win. Then the most awful thing happened as defender Laura Bassett headed into her own net. England had no time to recover, a bit […]
Morning all. The sports world has gone mad! Well, Wimbledon! Following the opening day battles on court, both Serena Williams and Liam Broady were given code violations for swearing on court! The BBC had to apologise for Heather Watson’s ‘colourful language’ – the ‘F’ word! Australian Nick Kyrgios was heard muttering ‘dirty scum’ during his […]
Good morning you lovely people! Ding Dong, Petr Cech is an Arsenal player! Happy? You bet I am…. What is there really to say? Well some people say Petr Cech isn’t the keeper he used to be…. Some people say he wasn’t a priority… But then some, mainly on the Chesea side of the fence, […]
Morning all. The official site has done it again and without knowing, helped me to write a post for the third day running. Pre-season. What’s it all about? Getting fit is the major object as is integrating new players (cough) and working out how to approach the new season but for some, it’s about more, […]
Morning all. Only one place to start for me today and that’s with the Women’s World Cup and a huge well done to England who during the early hours of this morning defeated Canada 2-1 in front of 54,000 fans. Most I hasten to add were in support of the hosts, Canada. England finally have […]
Morning all. Seems the official website are struggling as much as we writers are in the Arsenal blog world. ‘Vote for the best headed goal’? What’s that all about eh? One things for sure I thought, Thierry Henry won’t be up then among the voting options as he didn’t do heading much did he? He […]
Morning all. Very little in the news today, well apart for Petr Cech is reportedly to be having a medical today. If true, let’s hope he passes it… Danny Welbeck has been talking to the official site about how Osgood-Schlatter disease held up his early footballing career. Not that’s not a disease which means he […]
Morning all. Chile are through to the Copa America semi-finals after a 1-0 victory over Uruguay. A tasty game by the sounds of it as Cavani and Fucile were both sent off, the latter for a horror challenge on Alexis Sanchez! Qpr ‘reject’ Mauricio Isla grabbed the only goal late on in the game but that was […]
