Morning all. The main talking points from Mikel Arteta’s press conference yesterday was Gabriel Jesus being added to the Champions League squad in place of Max Dowman who has been ruled out of the game for four weeks due to injury. Declan Rice, William Saliba and Leandro Trossard are missing for tonight too. Declan […]

Morning all. The FA Cup third round draw took place last night with an away trip to Portsmouth coming out of the pot for Mikel Arteta’s team. The match is due to take place sometime over the weekend of the 10th January. Bearing in mind we play Liverpool on the 8th, I imagine the […]
Morning all. Simon Collings of The Standard reported a few days ago that Maurizio Micheli was at The Emirates on Wednesday night for Arsenal’s game against Brentford which suggests he’s now joined Arsenal’s recruitment team. If his knowledge and experience helps Andrea Berta in the transfer window then the better it will be for the […]
Morning all. If you was unfortunate enough to listen to that laughable excuse for a sports radio station Talk Sport this week, you’d have easily thought that you was actually listening to something like Aston Villa FM, such was their barely disguised one-eyed desire to see The Villains beat Arsenal. Now I know balanced, […]
Morning all. West Ham’s Soungoutou Magassa scored in the 83rd minute at Old Trafford to take a point off of Man Utd on Thursday night. Apparently, Amorim had been talking about how he’d stolen rival managers ideas on how to score from set-pieces which was ironic really as West Ham’s equaliser came from a corner. […]
Morning all. December is always a bit of a grind as fixtures come thick and fast and there’s no let up for those competing on all fronts as Arsenal currently are. Our next game at Villa Park will be this Saturday at midday, so precious little recovery time. Therefore after the last three massive […]
Morning all. There’s a full Premier League fixture list this week with last night kicking things off with Bournemouth losing at home to Everton, Newcastle Utd and Totts playing out a 2-2 and Fulham losing 4-5 against Manchester City. Tonight, Arsenal take on Brentford. Five other fixtures are taking place but the one which […]
Morning all. According to ESPN, Arsenal are set to sign 16 year old Ecuadorian twins Edwin and Holger Quintero. Both are at Independiente del Valle right now, the club who once had Piero Hincapie and Moises Caicedo on their books. The report states that the Quintero family have been in London this week to […]
Morning all. The last few days had drawn most of the attention away from yesterday’s clash at the noisy neighbours in Fulham Broadway. The demolition of Tottenham last weekend and the welcome blitz of Bayern in midweek had left us all on cloud nine. But, we knew it was only two thirds of the […]
Morning all. Who would have thought it would be Chelsea hot on our heels in the league as well as Man City and instead of Liverpool. Honestly, I wasn’t sure Arsenal would be top of the table at this stage of the season either. Yes, we had a great summer of transfers but often, […]
Morning all. Arsenal’s record against Bayern Munich has really left a lot to be desired, so much so that I kind of get a feeling that as a club they don’t actually respect Arsenal that much. They don’t see us as a threat and don’t see us as being on the same level as […]
Morning all. I cannot decide what was more amusing about the Man Utd v Everton fixture on Monday night, Idrissa Gueye getting sent off after just 13 minutes for striking team-mate Michael Keane, or Utd going on to lose 1-0 at Old Trafford against ten men. And to think the football media told us […]
