Morning all. Michael Oliver and VAR are once again the talking point. The sending off of Gabriel Martinelli seemed wrong in my opinion. How can a ref play an advantage, stop play for a further foul and then dish out two bookings to the same player? It’s probably written in the rules somewhere, but I […]

Morning all. The season kicks off again for Arsenal tonight but Mikel Arteta’s press conference was more about January. The transfer window, no signings and the departure of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Calum Chambers too but of course, his story isn’t as interesting. Or as dramatic. Is the squad strong enough? We did what we believed was […]
Morning all. Gabriel Martinelli has been named Arsenal’s player of the month for the second time running having scooped 41% of the fans votes for January. He’s been really good. He’s a workaholic down our left side, he plays without fear and causes defenders all sorts of problems. The only time I can remember him […]
Morning all. This time of the season can often be a bit of a bore. Feelings of disappointment after a transfer window where more players left than arrived and even the two we have agreed deals for aren’t for the here and now. The two week winter break might be good for the players, but […]
Morning all. The FA Cup has thrown up a couple of surprise results already this weekend. Middlesbrough knocked out Man Utd on Friday evening and Norwich defeated Wolves at Molineux yesterday afternoon. Both Chelsea and West Ham needed extra time yesterday to win their ties against lower division clubs which is good as more they play, the better […]
Morning all. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang is officially a Barcelona player. Reports suggest he’s taken a huge pay cut to get away from Arsenal. Well, he can afford to can’t he and if he was as unhappy, as his body language suggested, then as I’ve said before, it’s best for both him and Arsenal to part company. […]
Morning all. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has said his goodbye to the fans on Instagram. It reads. Not a mention of the backroom staff, including the current manager, or previous managers for that matter. I think it was right for him to leave, of that I have no doubt, but it’s a shame when any player departure […]
Morning all. Exhale! The January transfer window is finally closed. It was a quiet one for Arsenal as far as incoming transfers go but boy the club were busy showing players the way out. In: Auston Trusty – Colorado Rapids, undisclosed (starts on July 17) Matt Turner – New England Revolution. (Joins in the summer) […]
Morning all. Expect nothing and you won’t be left disappointed. One whole month of a winter transfer window and so far, all we’ve seen is players leave. At the time of writing, there’s sixteen hours left for Arsenal to get one or two players through the entrance door, otherwise that’s it until the summer. Personally, […]
Morning all. Mazeed Ogungbo, Charlie Patino, Joel Lopez, Alex Kirk and Taylor Foran are in Dubai with the rest of the first team squad so one can only assume that they are the ones Mikel Arteta will turn to if injuries or suspensions leave the squad short during the remainder of the season. Just 17 fixtures […]
Morning all. Ivan Toney. Tall, strong and scores goals. He’s used to English football, the Premier League and the weather. He is in my opinion, just what Arsenal lack up front. Transfer Market value him at around £30 million, half of what Juventus have reportedly just paid for number one Arsenal target Dusan Vlahovic. Well, […]
Morning all. Do you sit and wonder what the hell is going on at Arsenal? I know I do. We went in to January knowing that the ACON was taking place and that Mo Elneny along with Thomas Partey would be missing for anything up to six weeks. What do Arsenal do? Send AMN out […]
