Morning all. I don’t think it’ll just be Mikel Arteta who’s very pleased but all Arsenal fans too. That was a very good performance. The Emirates was loud from start to finish. Super stuff. The changes Mikel Arteta made had an impact on the way the team played. Sambi Lokonga in for Martin Ødegaard, […]

Morning all. Dean Smith brings his Aston Villa team to The Emirates tonight. Like Arsenal, their season so far has been mixed. They’ve beaten Man Utd, Everton and Newcastle but lost to Chelsea, Toots, Watford and Wolves. A draw with Brentford their other result. Jack Grealish departed in the summer but Villa spent the money […]
Morning all. Would I prefer to see a different manager along with a new coaching team at Arsenal? Yes, but even though that’s my opinion, I’d be as happy as Larry if Mikel Arteta proved me and all his other critics wrong. We know what the Arsenal board are like so it’s highly unlikely change […]
Morning all. Ian Wright: I think it’s a little bit of a worry for Arsenal because when you look at both goals, we’re not getting defenders to go and engage. He’s [White] got to get closer to him [Edouard] and he doesn’t do it. They’ve done brilliantly to score the goal. I think he’s got […]
Morning all. Mikel Arteta opted for a midfield of one, defensively I mean and that was Thomas Partey. No Lokonga, AMN or even Elneny to help him nullify a Crystal Palace midfield which has been playing well. Instead, in came Pepe to add to our attacking force. Yes, I use that word rather loosely.

Morning all. Finally, domestic football and Arsenal return to action tonight. The weekend threw up a few interesting resulting with Leicester City beating Man Utd, Wolves coming back from 2-0 down to beat Aston Villa 3-2 and Chelsea getting a win at Brentford. Shame yesterday’s result went the way they did though. Crystal Palace […]
Morning all. I watched the Arsenal players in training video on the club’s official website earlier and boy dos Gabriel have a shot on him. A left footed curler into the top left of the net. Nice. AMN and Eddie were staking a claim for a start up front. I jest of course in relation […]
Morning all. Two big matches for Arsenal this week and both against tricky opponents. Crystal Palace, who thrashed the Toots not long ago on Monday night before Dean Smith brings his Aston Villa team to the red and white side of north London on Friday. I suppose it’s no different to the fixture schedule we’d […]
Morning all. The Arsenal women got their Champions League challenge back on track last night. Having suffered a heavy defeat to Barcelona in the last group fixture, Hoffenheim were given a pasting. Kim Little started the ball rolling by converting a penalty in the first half and then just before half-time, Tobin Heath scored her first […]
Morning all. The international break is over thank goodness and hopefully, all the Arsenal players will return to the club injury free. At least they have five days before Crystal Palace come to The Emirates for our Monday night fixture. England totally cocked up their World Cup group fixture by drawing with Hungary. Four points […]
Morning all. Alexandre. Lacazette isn’t going to sign a new contract with Arsenal. So say Football London. Not being funny but I think most people realised that a long time ago but there’s a good chance he can’t anyway because he’s not been offered one. Newcastle are going to try and tempt him up north […]
Morning all. A few things have gone on over the weekend relating to Arsenal. The women’s team beat Everton 3-0 to keep their unbeaten run in the WSL going and remain top of the League. Bukayo Saka scored for England as they thrashed Andorra 5-0 and Thomas Partey got on the scoresheet as Ghana beat […]
