Morning all. Sven Mislintat is off this month, he could already be gone. I’ve no idea for sure. His appointment was generally well received I think, our hope to success by spotting players who were cheap, but were expected to come good, really good. For whatever reason only he and the club know for sure, […]

Morning all. ‘When you start supporting a football club, you don’t support it because of the trophies, or a player, or history, you support it because you found yourself somewhere there; found a place where you belong.’ Mesut Ozil on Twitter. Many, not all I know, support any football club because they’re born into it. […]
Morning all. I’m at a loss really. Losing 1-0 to BATE the way we did was embarrassing. We stated brightly and created enough chances to not only take the lead but to pretty much put the two legged tie out of reach. Had Mkhitaryan buried the first, who knows what might have followed but he […]
Morning guys. Mesut Ozil hasn’t travelled to Belerus which has sparked another social media outcry. Hang on though, he’s been sick according to Unai Emery, with the same bug which kept Aubameyang out of the team at the weekend. Trouble is, we cynics are exactly that aren’t we, cynical. A one off omission through sickness […]
Morning guys. Bear with me on this one, hopefully it’ll make sense. A few weeks ago I was put on a gluten free diet. I had two choices on how to approach this as I love homemade sourdough bread, any bread really. I enjoy a bowl of porridge in the morning or a homemade flapjack […]
Morning all. It’s often sad when an Arsenal player leaves the club. Not always though that’s for sure as I’m sure like me, you’ve been glad to see the back of quite a few. I’m not entirely sure how I feel about Aaron Ramsey though. On one hand I think he gives the team something […]
Morning guys. Alex Iwobi, perhaps the current Mr Marmite, the Theo Walcott of 2019, a player who frustrates me that’s for sure. He’ll pick the ball up, drives forward, goes passed a few players and then it’s crunch time. What he does next is crucial to attacking move. He stops, thinks and then the moment […]
Morning all. Another away game with a less than convincing performance but unlike others since November, we won this one. Had we previously played better on the road we might not be scrapping around for points in desperation for a top four spot. I’m not sure we’re worthy of place in the Champions League next […]
Morning all. Social Media has spilled over and into Unai Emery’s press conference as he was asked about the critical comments surrounding our away form. Ironic really beating in mind that today we travel to Huddersfield, the only ground we won at in 2018 under Arsene Wenger. Win today and history will repeat itself because […]
Morning all. There are some suggestions around the £40m-mark, depending on what competition Arsenal get in (Champions League or Europa League), I’ve been told that it could be around £100m to spend. As we know with Arsenal, that would factor in salaries as well, and we need to see what competition they get in. There […]
Morning all. I’m still trying to get my head around the recent Europa squad which has been announced. Danny Welbeck, Rob Holding and Hector Bellerin are on the long list of players yet Konstantinos Mavropanos, our probable future centre back, is not. I know it’s probably down to number crunching to comply with the home […]
Morning all. While I expected very little points wise to come out of our trip to the Etihad, I thought we might have shown a bit more effort than we did. To concede a goal in the manner we did within the opening two minutes was silly. I doubt many division one players would lose […]
