Morning all. Kev and I have scrabbled this one together. I don’t like our third kit at all and I certainly wouldn’t buy one. It’s dark, drab and blue. Thanks goodness it’s the third kit so we shouldn’t see the guys wearing it too often. Love our second kit though. The yellow has so much […]

Morning all. Firstly, despite the many many years of fierce rivalry between Toots and Arsenal, the home fans showed a bit of class yesterday when Bukayo Saka came on from the bench. Cheers not jeers rung around the stadium for the young Arsenal man who’d been subjected to some ghastly comments on social media not […]
Morning all. The Aaron Ramsdale to Arsenal stories carry on and I’m not at all surprised. Arsenal need a goalkeeper and not just someone who’s prepared to accept he’s our number two. Let’s face it, if Arsenal spend big on a keeper, there’s no way Mikel Arteta intends for him to be the number two […]
Bukayo Saka reads messages of support from football fans and non football fans. What a lovely moment #lovealwayswins #BS7 #arsenal ❤️ pic.twitter.com/QaME411Mom — Stuart MacFarlane (@Stuart_PhotoAFC) August 4, 2021 Morning all. The boy is back, except he’s a boy no longer. He’s our number 7, one of the most important players at the club. I […]
Morning all. A new four year deal for Granit Xhaka is the rumour on NN. Him staying is fine by me but why such a long deal? He’s 29 years old next month, meaning he’ll be 33 years old when his contract expires. It’s an odd decision made by the club I think but that’s […]
Morning all. Three key deals have now been sorted out by Arsenal this summer. Folarin Balogun, Emile Smith Rowe and now, Kido Taylor-Hart. Whilst Ben White, Sambi Lokonga and Nuno Tavares are great additions to the squad, keeping our own is crucial. Even those who might not go on to have a career at Arsenal, […]
Morning all. The rubbish news after the match came from Mikel Arteta: I just had a talk with the doctor. He’s going to have a scan tomorrow and at the moment it’s not looking good because he was in pain and he could not continue which, for Thomas, is pretty unusual. Thomas Partey has been excellent […]
Morning all. Two years ago today, Arsenal broke their own transfer fee record by signing Nicolas Pepe for £70 odd million pounds. I think it’s fair to say he’s struggled to make a big impact in England. However, towards the end of last season, he showed glimpses of being the kind of player we probably […]
Afternoon all. The worst kept secret is finally out. Ben White is an Arsenal player for the new few years and he’ll wear the number 4. Long gone are the days when Sky Sports or the BBC would spring a surprise on us like they did when Sol Campbell made the move across north […]
Morning all. Football journalism is already showing it’s bias and the season hasn’t even kicked off. Man Utd were held to a 2-2 draw by Brentford and the Mail focus on how good the goals and both teams were. Arsenal however, thrashed Watford 4-1 and the headline, plus video, is all about the one […]
Morning all. Happy Birthday to our new number 10. Emile Smith Rowe is 21 years old today and whilst he might get the key to the door as the old saying goes, I hope he goes into the new season with the key to unlocking many an oppositions defence. It’s a huge season for […]
Morning all. Albert Stuivenberg has left his position as Wales assistant coach to focus on his responsibilities with Arsenal. About time too! Why anyone would choose to work alongside Ryan Giggs I don’t know but apparently the two of the worked together at Man Utd. Giggs is no longer involved with Wales either but even […]
