Morning all. This season has to have been the most frustrating since we we lost out to Leicester for the title. Just an extra couple of points would have seen us return to the top four, three and we’d have pipped Chelsea and Toots into 3rd. It was that close. The home draw against Brighton […]

Morning all. It’s arrived. The final day of the 2018/19 domestic football season here in England which means the transfer window opens in just a few days time. Thursday 16th May to be precise and then closes on 8th August at 5pm, just hours before the 2019/20 season kicks off. So that’s nearly three […]
Morning all. The squad and coaching staff touched down on English soil at 6am yesterday morning. Training was cancelled, no surprise there eh as only a madman would have had them back in yesterday. Certainly the ones who were involved in our victory over Valencia. Unai Emery held his press conference where he was asked […]
Good morning guys and gals. I don’t know where that came from but my goodness, how good were Aubameyang and Lacazette? How good were Arsenal? Yes we started slowly, conceded early, looked shaky early but after we settled, brilliant. Just brilliant! The big names turned up and scored goals, excellent goals. Aubameyang went home […]
Morning all. Liverpool did it, Toots followed suit last night and as much as it pains me to say, one has to admire the attitude of both clubs. They looked certain to be beaten having both lost their first tie but neither accepted it. They fought from start to finish and the willingness to […]
Morning all. When it comes to English teams, Liverpool are low down on my list of likeable clubs. Actually, I really don’t like them at all but what they achieved last night was incredible. The goal of the game for me was the one from their corner. Such quick thinking from Alexander-Arnold, a twenty year […]
Morning all. A great day on here yesterday. The best days are often when Arsenal have hit a bad spot and as far as the league goes, it’s been pretty bad. No, it’s been dire. One point from from four matches is relegation form, the kind of form which would get a club owner twitching. […]
Morning all. A few questions, that’s all. Does Unai Emery tell Xhaka to pass to the opposition? Does he tell Aubameyang to miss chance after chance in front of goal? What about Ozil slowing our attacks down by taking one extra turn in or outside so the ball is on his left foot? Or Xhaka […]
Morning all. I’m not sure which Brighton team would be worse to play, the one needing three points for Premier League survival or the one who yesterday found out they’re staying put. For Chris Hughton’s side, the pressure is off. They can play with freedom knowing they’re safe. Cardiff joined Huddersfield and Fulham as the […]
Morning all. This season has flown by yet again. It seems like only yesterday when Man City rolled up at The Emirates to kick start our new beginning under Unai Emery. Here we now are, about to play our final home fixture of this campaign. Aaron Ramsey, Danny Welbeck, Nacho Monreal, Carl Jenkinson, Stephan Lichtsteiner […]
Morning all. Considering the way things have gone over the last ten days or so, I thought we did ok last night. An awful opening fifteen to twenty minutes though which no doubt was because of recent results/performances. Going 1-0 down during that opening period just about summed this Arsenal team up. It’s where we […]
Morning all. Rotten news from Unai Emery yesterday. Denis Suarez has been ruled out for the rest of the season with a groin injury. He’ll be seriously missed. I jest of course. What an odd piece of transfer business that was. He’s gone back to Barcelona where he’ll continue his recovery. The real sad news […]
