Morning all, How much longer is this International break? It feels like months already, six more days though and proper football is back and no more interruptions before the season ends… These few words are from Diaby, one of a few players who isn’t away with his country. His job is to keep the official website ticking over: […]
Morning all, Why not? After all, Jack Wilshere picks up a knock to his ‘good’ ankle and straight away the media frenzy erupted. As of course did many fans who wanted to blame the manager for overplaying him. Can you imagine trying to tell Jack Wilshere he needs a break, he’s a Gooner, if he’s […]
Morning all, When I say ‘old boy’, he’s not really that old, and no, it’s not Denilson. It’s striker Carlos Vela, who Real Sociedad signed from us last summer after being there on loan. There is a £4 million buy-back clause in his contract and reports suggest Wenger is thinking about activating it. No chance […]
Morning all… Seeing as there is not much news for the men, it’s good to give the others teams within the club a bit of airing.

Morning all, The dreaded international break is here again and we don’t play again until the 30th March. Boring eh! We have to chat about something and as usual, it the gossip in the red tops and broadsheets that will fill in, and of course the guest posts that are lining up nicely. I know […]
Morning all, Bit of gossip before today’s post. Like the Isco story yesterday, the one today in papers linking us to Stevan Jovetic is no surprise. We have all heard his name linked to us before and if we are to believe what has been written, we have been watching the player develop for the last […]
Morning all, First up, Tony Adams, is back in football having been asked to help England Under 19 coach Noel Blake prepare the squad to face Turkey on Thursday March 21. Hope that goes well for him, he deserves to be involved in the game he was once so good at. The Daily Start link us to […]
Morning all, Sort and sweet this morning, bit of a rush…. Why after the big games, and this season the cup games, are we left talking about Gervinho? Oh, or the referee! Both mucked up on the night, kind of feel sorry for Gervinho, he did so well to get through on goal and then […]
Morning all, First up it’s a silly story from The Sun. They suggest that Lukas Podolski could be set to leave in the summer. Juventus and Atletico Madrid are both keeping an eye on him and could make a move when the season ends. We’ll see eh! Next up is the news that Jack Wilshere […]
