Morning all. The Sun newspaper, not in any way the most reliable source I know but they’re running a heading which basically suggests that Arsenal will not be offering a new contract to Alexandre Lacazette and he’s up for sale this summer. £15M is the amount mooted for our French number nine. If true, that translates […]

Morning all. Seriously, was there really a doubt ESR would extend his career at Arsenal? Aston Villa might have tried their luck but their offer for our new number 10, but their offer was insulting. Sancho has just been signed by Utd for around £80m. Just saying. This kid, and he is still a […]
Morning all. Mikel Arteta and his squad should have been jetting off to America today, however, due to Covid, the mini tour has been cancelled. In an official announcement made by the club, they said: Following a small number of positive COVID tests among the planned party to travel to America tomorrow, we have sadly been […]
Morning all. So Arsenal’s second signing of the summer is through the door. Albert Lokonga was officially announced yesterday and like Nuno Tavares, I’m looking forward to seeing him playing in the Premier League. Talking to Arsenal Media, our new guy said: It’s a big move because I have been playing for Anderlecht for 10 […]
Morning all. Two very well taken Arsenal goals, the first from the new boy Nuno Tavares, the second from a striker who might soon be on his way, Eddie Nketiah. Two goals conceded thanks to awful defending of set pieces and a hatful of misses, too many from Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang ensured the match ended in […]
Afternoon all. It’s debut day for the new boy. Another start for Arthur Okonkwo which will do him the world of good. Ok, he made a big gaff in the first friendly but he also made a few good saves too. He’s a kid as far as goalkeeping goes but if Arsenal look after […]
Morning all. William Saliba’s loan deal with Marseille was finally made official yesterday. He’ll spend next season with the French club along with Matteo Guendouzi. I’d love to be a fly on the wall when those two get together and talk about Mikel Arteta and Arsenal. Stan and Josh Kroenke are making changes at the […]
Morning all. Bukayo Saka has been nominated for the Freedom of Ealing Borough. Councillor Peter Mason: “I hope this will send a clear message that Saka is Ealing’s own, that we are proud of him, and that he is one of our heroes.” – (Chris Wheatley via Twitter) Excellent. A nice touch, as was this from […]
Morning all. With the Euros over, it’s back to pre-season and for Arsenal training has already begun and the fixtures kick-off tomorrow. Mikel Arteta and his players are in Scotland where they’ll face Hibernian tomorrow evening and Rangers on Saturday afternoon. Results don’t really matter in these pre-season fixtures as they’re little […]
Morning all. Congratulations to Italy, commiserations to England but, I’m left with the feeling that England have only themselves to blame for not winning last night. After the perfect start with Luke Shaw emulating Nacho Monreal with a low shot just millimetres inside the near post, Gareth Southgate’s men were negative in their approach in […]
Morning all. If you don’t get the heading, you’re obviously too young… 😂 Nuno Tavares has signed for Arsenal. The first deal for the club is over the line and whilst his name might not be a household one, he’s young, quick and apparently, has a top notch work ethic. He’s also tall, certainly […]
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 […]
