Morning all. What a great weekend of sport we have in store. It’s the Wimbledon Finals over the next two days, the Euros and Copa America Cup Final, a second ODI between England and Pakistan and the Tour de France cycles on. Love it. I hate it when Wimbledon ends as I feel like someone […]
Morning all. Well, what a night for England, the fans and for Bukayo Saka. A quiet game by his standards I thought but it was his cross which gave England the equaliser they utterly deserved. Previously, a soft free kick to say the least led to a stunning free kick which Pickford could do little […]
Afternoon all. Matteo Guendouzi has left the club on a loan deal to Marseille. An ‘obligation to buy with conditions’ has been included within his contract according to TransferMarket so I think it’s fair to say, his Arsenal career is over all the time Mikel Arteta is manager. Also leaving is Matt Smith who has joined […]
Morning all. A bit of fun. Below is a list of players. On the left, those from the Arsene Wenger era but not necessarily signed by him. On the right, the players of today, very few of which have been signed by the current managerial team. Leno v Szczesny Tierney v Cole Bellerin v Lauren […]

Morning all. Arsenal are filling the back pages and or social media. Not all is positive news, not having read about AMN crashing his Ford KA at 6am this morning. No one was injured so that’s the main thing. What the club make of his accident remains to be seen but before casting judgement, they’ll […]
Morning all. Two quite entertaining fixtures played out yesterday at the Euros. The first saw Spain went 3-1 up against Croatia and looked like the next round was a certainty for them but a spirited fight back from Modric and his teammates brought the scores level so extra time was needed. Spain ended up going […]
Morning all. Arsenal have appointed Jonas Eidevall as the women’s new head coach. Eidevall is 38 years old and last season, led Malmo-based club Rosengard to last season’s Women’s Champions League quarter-finals; he spent a brief spell as Henrik Larsson’s assistant at Helsingborgs. Arsenal have a rich history, more successful than any other women’s team in […]
Morning all. Kieran Tierney has extended his contract at Arsenal which is brilliant news. “It feels amazing,” Tierney told Arsenal.com. “Firstly, when the manager came to me and said, ‘We want you to extend your deal, we’re so happy with how you’ve come along’ it was just amazing for me to hear because I’ve worked […]

By Devilgunner. I always had the nagging feeling that Auba wasn’t suited to the Arsenal style. But even though the evidence of those simple stats is telling, I was still shocked to see the high percentage of points the team got when Auba wasn’t involved and when Laca played. As a coach I prefer to […]
