Morning all. Will he, won’t he? The whole world of football, well, Arsenal fans and the footballing media, are desperate to know the answer. Aubameyang is the in form striker in England, the top of the Premier League goals scored table since the day he arrived in north London. I’d imagine that unless one is […]

Morning all. Sometimes there are no words. Sometimes actions, or reactions, say much more. To see Emi Martinez break down in tears after Arsenal had clinched a 14th FA Cup Trophy, showed how much it meant. His ten year journey with the club, often not actually playing for his club, delivered a trophy. A […]
Morning all. The big day has finally arrived. Arsenal are back at Wembley for the FA Cup Final. Arsenal v’s Chelsea. Mikel Arteta v’s Frank Lampard, Giroud up against his old club. Number 14 Cup up for grabs for Arsenal, for Chelsea, an opportunity to avenge defeat in 2017 and 2002. Much is being made […]
Morning all. Nathan Ake moving to Man City for £41 million is good news for Arsenal I think. We’ve two English centre-backs, both with experience and both saleable. Rob Holding and Calum Chambers are good players but neither have set the world alight when fit. I might sound harsh but if Mari and Mustafi had […]
Morning all. Our FA Cup campaign kicked off with what was probably considered to be a kind tie. We were at home against EFL Championship side Leeds United and were runaway winners. Well, not quite runaway but winners nevertheless thanks to Reiss Nelson. When the balls were drawn for the next round, a trip to […]
Morning all. Two years ago, Karl Hein joined Arsenal. (No, I didn’t know either) He was just 16 years old at the time but the Estonian national goalkeeper signed from FC Nomme United has since signed his first professional contract. His name has been in the press recently because in saying yes to Arsenal, he’d said […]
Morning all. Arsenal fans might not have liked what Troy Deeney once said about Arsenal and the lack of balls running through the squad but who at the time disagreed? I know I didn’t. Didn’t like hearing it, especially from that little s**t but he was right. We’d blown a 1-0 lead back in 2017, […]
Morning all. Watford outplayed us yesterday in every department barring goals scored. They had energy, desire, passion, heart. They didn’t give up on the very slim chance of Premier League survival they had before kickoff. Watford had nothing to lose. They were relegated barring a miracle so for ninety minutes they could afford to play […]
Morning all. Not sure what to make from Mikel Arteta’s comment above. Could he mean he’ll make changes, giving fringe players one more match before the season ends, some perhaps their final game in an Arsenal shirt. For Rob Holding, another run out before playing in next week’s final, or will Arteta be keen […]
[et_pb_section admin_label=”section”] [et_pb_row admin_label=”row”] [et_pb_column type=”4_4″][et_pb_text admin_label=”Text”] Morning all. Come on, you have to admit it. Mesut Ozil has nailed the modelling of our new kit. The silver plated necklace and steel backed watch finishes it off nicely. No wonder he commandeered a full frontal position. Go Mesut! Go being the operative word. It’s […]
Morning all. Something a bit different this morning. Arsenal by numbers as in, numbers one to eleven with the odd greats who opted against tradition. Long gone are the days of numbers on shirts meaning much whereas in years gone by, numbers 1-11 would kind of mean you’re a first team player, but not these […]
Morning all. What a weird old season this has been for football, especially Arsenal. The wait for Unai Emery to be replaced dragged on too long and then once it happened, it now feels like everything stopped. It didn’t of course because a few months passed before football and the world really, came to a […]
