Morning all. Two very different England performances were on show yesterday. In the cricket, England defeated New Zealand by going on the attack. The run chase was 299 and at tea, England were already four wickets down with 139 runs on the board meaning 206 we’re still required in the 47 overs left in the day’s […]

Morning all. Three Premier League transfer deals were announced yesterday. Erling Haaland to Man City was made official, Benfica confirmed that Darwin Nunez was moving to Liverpool and Arsenal announced the signing of Marcus Vinicius Oliveira Alencar, aka, Marquinhos, a 19 year old forward from Brazilian club São Paulo. I’d much prefer Arsenal to have […]
Morning all. The loveable, or perhaps rather unloveable rogue Matteo Guendouzi is determined to upset the Arsenal apple cart by saying: William (Saliba) now has Marseille in his heart and I am sure that he will come back to Marseille next season. So I am going to try to push again for him to stay […]
Morning all. The one thing the British media are good at is telling a tale. Journalists have become experts in all fields yet all they really have is opinions along with the freedom to put such opinions in print so that you and I can read them. What percentage of the football stuff they write […]

Morning all. Bukayo Saka has been voted Arsenal’s player of the season on the official website for the second year running to become the first Arsenal player to retain the award since Thierry Henry in 2004. He also joins a short list of players who have won the trophy back to back with the others […]
Morning all. I watched some of the England Under 21 match last night. It was a toss up between Bukayo Saka or ESR and and Flo Balogun and the latter won. Balogun scored two of the three England goals with one being assisted by ESR. The win ensured England have reached the Euros with two […]
Morning all. The Daily Mail are linking Bukayo Saka with Man City. They are desperate to get hold of our man before Liverpool do and with just two years left on his contract, he’s there to be bought. Anyone who expected, or still expects Arsenal to get through the summer without such speculation must have […]
William Saliba tells Telefoot on his future: “I belong to Arsenal, I still have two years left. I will be back with Arsenal”. ⚪️🔴 #AFC “I have played zero matches and I still want to show them that I can play for these fans and this great club”, he added to @JulienMaynard. pic.twitter.com/GFxRuEQvxc — Fabrizio […]
Morning all. Nearly all the newspapers are running a story this morning which relates to Gianluca Scamacca. Arsenal and West Ham are interested in the 6’ 4” Italian striker but Arsenal have struck first. However, our £34 million offer has been rejected. The media love that word don’t they, especially when it’s in the same […]
Afternoon all. The news we all expected has arrived. Our French number 9 is leaving the building. Actually, he’s probably already left. I was chuffed when Arsenal finally signed Alex Lacazette back in 2017. His time at the club hasn’t always been brilliant but seeing as he’s now gone, I’m going to just remember the […]
Morning all. Bored already with the transfer window? Yep, me too but once Arsenal get moving, I’m sure we’ll have a lot of positive things to talk about. Imagine Edu and Mikel Arteta jad just snapped up a 33 year old for free, the Arsenal blogshere would be going nuts, and not in a […]
