Morning all. Pbarany has written today’s article. After a terrible 2020/21 season, ending with the lowest points and league position in 30 years, last week we concluded a more interesting, more controversial and – untill the (pen)ultimate round – more exciting and hopeful campaign. But how should we assess the season gone by? If we […]

Morning all. For the first time since 2006, I sat and watched a Champions League Final from start to finish. After it’d finally got underway of course. According to reports on the BBC, a large number of Liverpool fans tried to get into the stadium with fake tickets in hand which caused all sorts of […]
Afternoon all. If there’s one thing we Arsenal fans know for sure this summer, it’s that the internet will be awash with stories relating to players who’re heading to the club this summer. Most of which will be rubbish from the headline onwards. I’m even starting to doubt the Eddie Nketiah’s signing of a new […]
Morning all. I think the new deal for Mo Elneny makes absolute sense. It’s a year with an option for another if all goes well for him and Arsenal. A dip into the transfer market to find a player who has his experience, enthusiasm and energy would cost the club money and very likely, wages […]
Morning all. A little snippet from Arsene Wenger: When you are a manager and you have a star in your team, for you, he is not the star, he is a player. But for the outside, he is a star. But he has a power in the team, in the dressing room. He influences other […]
Morning all. What do you think about Youri Tielemans to Arsenal rumours on NewsNow and the back pages of the newspapers? He’s 25 years old, knows the Premier League inside out and has played over forty matches for Belgium. Initially, a holding midfielder, but Anderlecht manager Besnik Hasi moved him further up yesterday pitch into a […]
Morning all. Well that was quite a final day of the season wasn’t it? Liverpool went behind against Wolves and Man City did the same at the Etihad against Aston Villa. The PL trophy looked like it was heading to Anfield after Klopp’s took a 2-1 lead but then City final woke up, scored three […]
Morning all. The final day of the 2021/22 domestic football football season is here. Arsenal take on Everton at The Emirates Stadium, Totts go to Carrow Road to face already relegated Norwich. As said a couple of days ago, one club from either Leeds Utd and Burnley will be relegated today, one of Man City […]
Morning all. Only once since Mikel Arteta took the manager’s job have we had something to look forward to at the end of a season and that was an FA Cup Final against Chelsea in august 2020. When one looks back at the team which started that game, many of whom have since gone, it’s […]
Morning all. Did you see Tyrone Mings accidentally connect with Ashley Barnes elbow in last night’s fixture between Aston Villa and Burnley? Not even a yellow card came out of Paul Tierney’s pocket. And people wonder why Mikel Arteta moaned about some of the decisions he made in our fixture against Totts. When Aaron Hickey […]
Morning all. Memphis Depay and Nicolas Pepe fill the Arsenal headlines this morning. Arsenal’s old midfielder Aaron Ramsey too. I never understand why a manager brings a player on from the bench just before a penalty shootout. Tuchel did it with his keeper didn’t he, and Giovanni van Bronckhorst last night with Ramsey. Both times […]
Morning all. Arsenal currently have 21 players listed on the official website for the first team squad. Out of the 21, Alex Lacazette, Eddie Nketiah and Mo Elneny will be leaving in the summer unless things change which today I’m assuming they won’t. That leaves 18 players. Matt Turner will arrive at the club this […]
