Morning Gooners, Carl Jenkinson is yet to make his mind up about who to represent at International level. We all know his choices are England or Finland and if Roy Hodgson has any sense, he’ll call our right-back up pretty sharpish and sort that issue out! He really is going to be a super defender, […]

Morning Gooners, Chelsea take a short trip across London to face the meanest defence in the league today, a record equalled only by themselves so far this season. Old Lille club-mates, Gervinho and Hazard will be up against each other rather than in the same team and after the final whistle, who will come out on […]
Morning Gooners, Coventry City roll into town today, for a 3rd Round tie in the much maligned creation of the late Alan Hardaker O.B.E. Hardaker was the Secretary of The Football League back in the days of Division’s One to Four, and during the 1960’s, was the main architect of The Football League Cup. His remit […]
Morning Gooners, A few words from ‘Mad Jens’ throughout today’s post: We once played Inter Milan and nearly got knocked out of the Champions League. We knew we had to get a result and all of a sudden this team really stood up. We beat them 5-1 in Milan, and so it showed us at […]
The Champions League returns for another season and this time the final will be played at Wembley. It’s a classic case of so near yet so far at the same time. We have been in the Champions League for over a decade with consecutive appearances but are yet to win it. During the draw when […]
Morning Gooners, Finally, the proper football is back! Arsenal news: Wojciech Szczesny is available again following a rib injury and Theo Walcott will be assessed before a final decision is made, but he was training with the squad yesterday, so he should be fine and as we all know, Abou Diaby is a doubt because of a hip […]
Morning Gooners, Alex Song has spoken about his move away, he’s not a happy chappie and professes to have wanted to stay a Gunner for life but the club thought otherwise. There is an article in The Sun if you are interested in reading more. Rumours are gathering pace that Newcastle’s Cheick Tiote could be the man to […]
Morning Gooners…. Well well, just after the Dutchman nearly choked trying to talk about his old club yesterday, news broke in Twitterland and on a couple of Arsenal websites that Alex Song has done a ‘Nellie the Elephant’. By that I mean he’s packed his bag and said goodbye to his team mates but he’s […]
Morning Gooners, OK, it might not be a day out at Wembley but I tell you it will feel like it at three o’clock this afternoon. Those are the words of Robin van Persie ahead of our final game against West Bromwich Albion, a must win if we are to secure 3rd place and with […]
Chelsea V Liverpool in todays FA Cup, 6th V 8th place in the Premier League but would you rather be at Wembley watching us play in the FA Cup Final, with us sitting in either of those positions in the league? Or, would you rather be sat waiting for 12.45 UK time to arrive, knowing […]
Titbits: The Yann M’Vila saga goes on, now Manchester United are reported to be in the running for him, as they are for another Wenger target, Athletic Bilbao’s Javi Martinez. Both are defensive midfielders so maybe we will get one and the Mancs the other. 😉 Just get in there Gazidis and get the one […]
Yep, I read that yesterday, Squillaci is in talks about a one year loan at Leeds – shame it’s not permanent but at least Leeds will pay most of his wages!Plenty of time though for other clubs to come in, i’m sure there are many keeping tabs on his situation. 😉 Also, we have slapped […]
