Morning all. Disappointed? Of course, but over the two legs, did we really deserve more? Regardless of your or my opinion, we’re out of the Europa Cup. Beaten on penalties but the killer blow was Sporting CP’s equaliser which was incredibly good. Aaron Ramsdale will no doubt be criticised by anyone who isn’t keen on […]

Evening guys. Arsenal take on Sporting CP shortly. Any kind of home win and we’re through to the quarter-finals of the Europa League Cup. Like Arsenal, Sporting won 3-0 at the weekend so they’ll be confident. After the game, Sporting boss Amorim said: It was a perfect game because the team remained focused,” Amorim said […]
Morning all I heard/read the words “it’s a two horse race” the other day in reference to the Premier League title. I still think Man Utd shouldn’t be written off entirely but it would take a huge dip in form and dreadful run of results for both City and ourselves for them to even have […]
Morning all. The fans. In the tone of Craig Revel-Horwood – FAB-U-LOUS! Seriously, you’d have thought we were playing at The Emirates rather than Craven Cottage. Mikel Arteta on if he would have been chanting with our away supporters… I would be singing with them to support the team, that’s for sure! They’ve been […]
Morning all. If you’re planning to tune into Match Of The Day tonight, there’ll be no presenters. Gary Linekar has been ‘stood down’ from his duties after his comment on social media caused a bit of a stir and both Alan Shearer and Ian Wright have quit in support of the presenter. It seems the […]
Morning all. Are you enjoying reading the back pages in the newspapers this morning? All is not well at the neighbours that’s for sure and it makes for amusing headlines. At Arsenal though, Gabriel Jesus is back and wasn’t ready for a return to first team action, I very much doubt Thomas Partey would be […]
Morning all. We, that is Arsenal, have an ally. I think I’ve mentioned before that Jamie Carragher is a big fan of what Mikel Arteta is doing at Arsenal. Talking last night on Sky Sport, he said: I’ve always had the feeling that if you want to win the league you have to score late […]
Morning all. What a weekend of football. The only way it could have been better for Arsenal is if Man City and Newcastle had drawn their match but hey, we can’t have things all our own way. A fabulous comeback from the Arsenal men against Bournemouth, Wolves then beat Tottenham and because Chelsea are so […]
Morning all. What is there to say after the 97 minutes of football played out by both Bournemouth and Arsenal yesterday other than, wow! I said before the game that I believed Bournemouth are better than their League position suggests….. Mikel Arteta made three changes to the starting eleven of midweek. Fabio Vieira, Thomas Partey […]
Morning all. So, Gabriel Martinelli has his mojo back after being dropped according to a headline on NewsNow. The term dropped is harsh I think and seldom does it actually mean what it says because dropped suggests something quite different to being rested. Aubameyang, Ozil, Kolasinac, Mustafi, Pepe etc we’re dropped in my opinion but […]
Morning all. There are many reasons Everton appointed Sean Dyche I’m sure, but I strongly suspect his main task was/is, to avoid relegation. Dyche isn’t really renowned for his entertaining, attacking and dynamic footballing tactics but what he does well is to organise a defensive set up. I’m sure everyone interested in last nights fixture […]
Morning all. Four days after beating Leicester City at The King Power Stadium, Mikel Arteta’s players are back in action against Everton at The Emirates. It’s our game in hand, a chance to go five points clear of Man City and fifteen points ahead of Totts in fourth place. Everton are without Dominic Calvert-Lewin, James Garner, […]
