Having been 4-3 up from the first leg, Man City took the lead, leaving Real needing two goals to draw level and take the game into extra time. With 90 minutes on the clock, […]

Morning all. Well who’d have thought it, Granit Xhaka has been voted the fans player of the month for April on AFC.com. Mo Elneny came a close second. I want to say thank you very much for voting me as Player of the Month. It’s very special for me, but I want to say thank […]
Morning all. Reiss Nelson, is it too late for him at Arsenal? It’s never too late for any player to come back into the Arsenal squad in my opinion and Nelson is no different. I’ve never read anything negative about him as a person and after a few years of struggling to get his footballing […]
Morning all. Mikel Arteta and his players went into the game at the London Stadium knowing that only a win would keep the chase for top four in their own hands. Brendan Rogers had made a glut of changes to his Leicester City team in the early game and as expected, were beaten by Totts. […]
Morning all. Norwich are going back to the Championship and Watford are close to joining them. Everton are clinging on to the hope that they can win their games in hand over Leeds, and/or that Leeds keep on losing as they did yesterday against Man City. Liverpool meanwhile, are also holding on to the hope […]
Morning all. There’s an interview with Steve Round on Arsenal.com. It’s good in my opinion. He talks about his own footballing journey, coaching, the spirit within the club and of course, Mikel Arteta himself. In Mikel Arteta we’ve got an exceptional manager – there’s no doubt about that. And an incredible person too, the sky’s […]
Morning all. West Ham lost 2-1 last night at home to Eintracht Frankfurt, a pretty good result for Arsenal because the tie is far from over. I wouldn’t put it past David Moyes team to get a result in Germany so the Scotsman might just be tempted to give a few of his key players […]
Morning all. A joint article this morning with bits from both myself and Kev. I know we’ve discussed what the club is going to do about the futures of Lacazette, Elneny and Nketiah in depth recently with all their contracts due to expire this summer, and for me it’s keep two out of the three, […]
Morning all. Did you read the story about Marcus Rashford and Jesse Lingard? Both had promised to give their shirts to kids from Arsenal’s under 9 team after the game at The Emirates. Despite losing, they kept their promise but the young lad who Rashford gave his shirt to had it nicked off him just […]
Morning all. It’s hard to believe that the end of this 2021/22 season is nearly over yet there’s still so much on offer for a number of clubs in England and abroad. The Premier League is a two-horse race between Man City and Liverpool which could yet go down to the final game, fourth spot […]
Morning all. Kev has very kindly written this mornings article. By the time the January transfer window closed, Arsenal’s squad was possibly the smallest its been in years so when Thomas Partey and Kieran Tierney joined Takehiro Tomiyasu on the injury list, Mikel Arteta has had little choice but to call up a larger than […]
Morning all. I’ll never understand why a footballer who takes a penalty kick doesn’t just pick his spot, run up and kick the ball. All the fancy footwork during the approach to the ball is silly, if not arrogant. I haven’t an ounce of sympathy for a player who misses because of his own antics. […]
