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 […]
There is all sorts of stuff in the football news, the Chelsea goal that never was, the Ashley Young impression of Tom Daley, again! Gary Neville and Arsene Wenger are blaming the foreign players for showing their English counterparts the way to win free-kicks and penalties and our own manager is in favour of any […]
Today’s gossip from the papers: Clint Dempsey’s name is again linked with us, apparently our scouts have been keeping an eye on him since January and Arsene has been told he’d be the perfect fit in our squad. Another linked to us is attacking midfielder Stephan El Shaarawy of AC Milan. That story comes from […]
Morning Gooners, Happy Easter to you all…. Big one today against Manchester City, a side which many are calling them the team from Abu Dhabi but I like to look at it differently. Just because a team has rich financial backers who are not afraid to put their money where their mouths are, that shouldn’t […]
Quick word on todays opponent QPR: It’s four points from a possible 21 for Mark Hughes’ men. QPR’s 1-0 win over Chelsea represents their only win in five London Premier League derbies this term. The R’s are without a clean sheet in 21 Premier League matches. They have conceded 39 goals since then, including seven […]
