Morning all. Tomorrow’s battle against Aston Villa is huge. Losing is unthinkable. To do so would undo all the hard work done at Old Trafford. By the way, I’m enjoying the pressure OGS is under now because the more it builds, the worse his team are likely to play. I fancy Everton to whip their […]
Morning all. With Christmas not far off, I hope Santa brings our manager a warmer coat. A less black and certainly a less shiny one. But boy doesn’t he always look crisp, sharp. The game was certainly not easy. Molde worked tirelessly in defence, especially in the first half. Arsenal certainly struggled a bit. […]
Morning all. Molde FK, one of Norway’s top flight football clubs. Four time League Champions in 2011, 2012, 2014 and 2019. Norwegian FA Cup winners in 1994, 2005, 2013 and 2014. The only Norwegian club to have taken part in the Champions League. Ole Gunnar Solskjær both played for and managed them. Thanks Wiki. The […]
Morning all. It was a good away performance, it wasn’t great, I wouldn’t get carried away and say oh my god it’s a turning point. They beat a terribly, terribly poor Manchester United team on the day. They’ve done a job, we’ve seen them lose those games over the last five or six years. But […]
Morning all. I’ve stolen this from The Athletic. Why? Because the newspaper is a subscribe only one so I thought I’d share it for those who haven’t signed up to it. For what it’s worth, I find it to be one of the best sports newspapers out there. Yesterday they raised the question over the […]
Morning all. A trip to Old Trafford is seldom something to look forward to, certainly not recently. For the sports writers and pundits though, it was another chance to tell the footballing world just how long it’s been since Arsenal beat a top six side away from home. Little things please little minds, as […]
Morning all. Man Utd have hit a bit of form, or at least that’s what their most recent results would suggest. The 6-1 thrashing by Toots woke them up perhaps because since then, they’ve not lost. OGS has a squad full of creativity and pace. Rashford, Fernandes, de Beek, Greenwood – the list goes on […]
Morning all, With so many changes, to expect perfection would have been naive. Dundalk were always going to park the bus but even so, it was up to Mikel Arteta and his youthful group of players to find a way through. They did. Yes, there were mistakes made at times, odd […]
Morning all. Probably not a night off for all our first team players as a few are bound to be on the bench just in case. Mustafi is likely to start because Mikel Arteta’s options are limited. Only he and Gabriel are fully fit. Mikel Arteta held his pre-match press conference yesterday and besides […]
Morning all. If there’s one good thing about be an Arsenal fan not born and bred in north London is one always has a local team to support. Right now I’m fortunate because as Arsenal are huffing and puffing their way through 95 minutes of football twice a week, my local team, Reading FC are […]
Morning all. Will there come a time when Mikel Arteta says enough is enough. Mesut Ozil has been binned because of football reasons, so when does he call time on a few more. We’ll all have our own little list but I’d imagine that Xhaka, Mustafi, Lacazette and perhaps even Pepe’s names are the most […]
Morning all. British summertime ended yesterday with the clocks going back an hour. Arsenal played like the clocks had gone back twelve months or more. I find it concerning that the team are so toothless in attack. All the time the score remained 0-0, the Brendan Rogers script was playing out nicely and as his […]
