Morning all. Today’s post is by AllezKev. Being pipped to fourth place by the Middlesex Silversmiths several weeks ago was a hard pill to take. We’ve done it to them so many times before in the recent past and everything seemed to be falling into place once again, but sadly it wasn’t to be. All […]

Afternoon all. Ever since that day in Manchester, Mike Riley has probably been the most disliked man in football by Arsenal fans. Of course our great run back then was going to come to an end at some stage but Mike Riley was, in my opinion, far too eager to ensure it came when it […]
Morning all. With Man City agreeing a deal with Leeds for Kelvin Phillips for £45-50 million according to Sky Sports, Leeds are going to be hard pushed to expect anything more for Raphinha in my opinion but they will I’m sure. English players, especially those already playing for their country, usually cost more because of […]
Morning all. Gabriel Jesus’ move to Arsenal seems to have gone up a notch. Personal terms have been agreed according to many newspapers with The Mirror suggesting the club are going to pay him £260,000 a week. If true, it’s bonkers because City were paying him £90,000 a week. I know London is a bit […]
Morning all. Arsenal announced the signing of Fabio Vieira yesterday afternoon. Ok, I get it, he’s not the biggest footballer in the world but so what? Santi Cazorla was shorter, as is Kante and I’m sure if I could be bothered to look, I’d find many other under tall players who have graced the English […]
Morning all. Arsenal new arrivals might not be coming thick and fast but the rumours are, with the latest being Kieran Tierney to Manchester City. Absolutely no way should Arsenal consider taking City’s dirty money, was my first thought but then, why not came creeping into my mind. Arsenal could pretty much sign Lisandro Martinez […]
❤️ Edu x Eddie ❤️ Time to take a first look at your new shirt, @EddieNketiah9 🤩 pic.twitter.com/loNrGj5KlW — Arsenal (@Arsenal) June 18, 2022 Morning all. No fancy mask, no drawn out process, just a simple message with a smile. Eddie Nketiah can’t wait to get started again after signing a new five year contract […]
Morning all. Lisandro Martínez, primarily a centre-back, but capable of playing at left-back and central midfield, is the latest name linked to Arsenal. He’s currently at Ajax so I’m surprised Man Utd aren’t linked with him. I’m not going to mention his height but needless to say, if he arrives, I hope he’s not the […]
Morning all. Well well, whilst Marquinhos, Gabriel Jesus and Youri Tielemans have been hitting the Arsenal headlines, it seems Edu and his team have dipped into the Portuguese League and come out with Fabio Vieira. Am I going to pretend I know all about him? Absolutely. Not! But, I can hear Paddy’s old song being […]
Morning all. Pre-season isn’t far away with our friendly fixtures kicking off on the 8th July when we play FC Nurnberg in Germany. Reports in the Daily Mail this morning suggest that Mikel Arteta is expecting the the squad to be back on the training field before the end of June, barring those who’ve been […]
Morning all. Two very different England performances were on show yesterday. In the cricket, England defeated New Zealand by going on the attack. The run chase was 299 and at tea, England were already four wickets down with 139 runs on the board meaning 206 we’re still required in the 47 overs left in the day’s […]
Morning all. Three Premier League transfer deals were announced yesterday. Erling Haaland to Man City was made official, Benfica confirmed that Darwin Nunez was moving to Liverpool and Arsenal announced the signing of Marcus Vinicius Oliveira Alencar, aka, Marquinhos, a 19 year old forward from Brazilian club São Paulo. I’d much prefer Arsenal to have […]
