Morning all. I’ve been trying not to mention the Euros because it seems that when I have, this place is usually quieter than it normally is but after last nights result which sent England into the final at Wembley on Sunday, how can such an achievement be ignored? Having seen off Spain in the quarter-finals, […]

Morning all. Edu’s most recent interview has certainly got tongues wagging and pen’s scribing. I thought he was being honest, open and certainly very positive. I’ve read so much negativity about him since he rejoined the club yet I always believed that a man who’d been part of such a great Arsenal team/squad as a […]
Morning all. From Sky Sports. An exclusive interview with Edu. Arsenal have spent £121.5million on five new players this summer with the arrivals of Gabriel Jesus, Oleksandr Zinchenko, Fabio Vieira, Marquinhos and Matt Turner. How pleased are you with your latest signing Oleksandr Zinchenko? We are so excited to have Zinchenko with us here because […]
Morning all. I’ve just watch the highlights of Arsenal’s 4-0 thumping of Chelsea and I’d say the level of football has improved. More pace, movement, clinical finishing, albeit we should have scored more and we looked pretty darned good. But, as Mikel Arteta said after the game this was a “friendly”. After Liverpool lost to […]
Morning all. Arsenal’s fifth summer signing was confirmed yesterday afternoon. Oleksandr Zinchenko. He’s a winner, Premier League proved, a left sided player in midfield or defence and a great addition to Mikel Arteta’s squad. I say squad but I think it’s fair to assume that a player of his quality is for the first […]
Morning all. This summer is shaping up to be a cracker for Arsenal. Last summer was pretty good but this one, it’s all about quality as well as numbers. It might not be official, or at least it’s not as I type this but Oleksandr Zinchenko is an Arsenal player. He flew to America with […]
Morning all. Have you seen the “All Or Nothing – Arsenal” teaser yet? Me too and it looks spicy. The two minute clip doesn’t give too much away but I’m sure the series, which begins broadcasting on the 4th August on Amazon Prime, will. Was I surprised to see Mikel Arteta so animated, absolutely not. […]
Morning all. T-Bag, that’s Nuno Tavares’ nickname for Fabio Vieira. That’s what the latter told The Athletic during an interview. The image of a PG Pyramid popped into my mind but of course that’s not what he meant. “T-Bag” – full name, Theodore “T-Bag” Bagwell is a fictional character from the American television series Prison Break. […]
Morning all. Arsenal players wearing the number 9 shirt during the Premier League era have not always excelled. In fact one of two of them have been little short of awful. Francis Jeffers, Park Chu-young, Julian Baptista? Lucas Perez and Davor Suker. Life at Arsenal wasn’t easy for Suker, not with a certain Thierry Henry […]
Morning all. The media are spinning the story that William Saliba could leave Arsenal this summer. He’s reluctant to sign a new contract – yes, I read something about that on NN. Right now he’s in America with the rest of the squad and having read his interview on the official website, it seems he’s […]
Morning all. I can’t believe that the sun still shines here in the UK. It’s usually one day sun, the next, rain during a typical British summer but it seems ages since anything wet has fallen from the sky. That’s unless your unlucky enough to have walked in the same direction as one of the […]
Morning all. My post yesterday didn’t suit everyone. All I was trying to say is why slate the club when we don’t know what’s going on or the reasons behind any of the decisions the club makes. I certainly wasn’t trying to tell any football fan how or what to think, or what opinion they […]
