Afternoon all. The worst kept secret is finally out. Ben White is an Arsenal player for the new few years and he’ll wear the number 4. Long gone are the days when Sky Sports or the BBC would spring a surprise on us like they did when Sol Campbell made the move across north […]

Morning all. Football journalism is already showing it’s bias and the season hasn’t even kicked off. Man Utd were held to a 2-2 draw by Brentford and the Mail focus on how good the goals and both teams were. Arsenal however, thrashed Watford 4-1 and the headline, plus video, is all about the one […]
Morning all. Happy Birthday to our new number 10. Emile Smith Rowe is 21 years old today and whilst he might get the key to the door as the old saying goes, I hope he goes into the new season with the key to unlocking many an oppositions defence. It’s a huge season for […]
Morning all. Albert Stuivenberg has left his position as Wales assistant coach to focus on his responsibilities with Arsenal. About time too! Why anyone would choose to work alongside Ryan Giggs I don’t know but apparently the two of the worked together at Man Utd. Giggs is no longer involved with Wales either but even […]
Morning all. Yesterday evening The Athletic reported that Arsenal have signed highly-rated striker Mika Biereth from Fulham. Apparently he turned down the offer of a new contract because he wanted a move across London. One for the academy I’m sure, but in the years to come, who knows. He’s 18 years old. Other younger Arsenal players faced […]
Morning all. The Sun newspaper, not in any way the most reliable source I know but they’re running a heading which basically suggests that Arsenal will not be offering a new contract to Alexandre Lacazette and he’s up for sale this summer. £15M is the amount mooted for our French number nine. If true, that translates […]
Morning all. Seriously, was there really a doubt ESR would extend his career at Arsenal? Aston Villa might have tried their luck but their offer for our new number 10, but their offer was insulting. Sancho has just been signed by Utd for around £80m. Just saying. This kid, and he is still a […]
Morning all. Mikel Arteta and his squad should have been jetting off to America today, however, due to Covid, the mini tour has been cancelled. In an official announcement made by the club, they said: Following a small number of positive COVID tests among the planned party to travel to America tomorrow, we have sadly been […]
Morning all. So Arsenal’s second signing of the summer is through the door. Albert Lokonga was officially announced yesterday and like Nuno Tavares, I’m looking forward to seeing him playing in the Premier League. Talking to Arsenal Media, our new guy said: It’s a big move because I have been playing for Anderlecht for 10 […]
Morning all. Two very well taken Arsenal goals, the first from the new boy Nuno Tavares, the second from a striker who might soon be on his way, Eddie Nketiah. Two goals conceded thanks to awful defending of set pieces and a hatful of misses, too many from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang ensured the match ended in […]
Afternoon all. It’s debut day for the new boy. Another start for Arthur Okonkwo which will do him the world of good. Ok, he made a big gaff in the first friendly but he also made a few good saves too. He’s a kid as far as goalkeeping goes but if Arsenal look after […]
Morning all. William Saliba’s loan deal with Marseille was finally made official yesterday. He’ll spend next season with the French club along with Matteo Guendouzi. I’d love to be a fly on the wall when those two get together and talk about Mikel Arteta and Arsenal. Stan and Josh Kroenke are making changes at the […]
