Morning all. The Carabao Cup might not be at the top of the priorities list for Unai Emery, perhaps not the fans either although the chants of ‘Arsenal, Arsenal, Arsenal….. one could hear above the Anfield crowd just before kickoff would suggest otherwise, a victory would have done us the world of good. It should […]
Morning all. Granit Xhaka continues to hog the Arsenal headlines which is no great surprise really. Until something official comes out of the club, the media will continue to guess. Unai Emery did say yesterday that he thought the player should have apologised, however, Xhaka clearly has no plans to do so. It’s too […]
Morning all. As soon as Granit Xhaka reacted in the way he did on Sunday, it was inevitable that the press/media would have a field day. Arsenal are feeding them their headlines followed by negative stories. How captain appointment after captain appointment has been a joke. They have a point, but never one more poignant than […]
Morning all. Another shocker all round. Martin Atkinson wasn’t at fault although some of his decisions were bizarre but VAR had a stinker, or rather the blokes operating it. Xhaka had another day to forget. When he was subbed he spat his dummy out his mouth. The Arsenal fans cheered when his number came […]
Morning all. I wonder what Unai Emery and his merry men have install for us later today. A performance full of energy and passion with a plan which the players execute with confidence or just more of what we’ve seen so far this season. Will we see Torreira start in midfield and perhaps Ozil too […]
Morning all. There’s a headline on NewsNow which offers us hope. Mesut Ozil is interested in a move to the MLS. I’ve no idea if it’s true but I’d like to think it is as it makes sense. Any move makes sense though because he can’t be happy at Arsenal. He shouldn’t be that’s for […]
Morning all. An odd match I thought. Our groups whipping boys turned up with a plan, a plan which as it turned out, didn’t succeed. Not for the want of trying though. Our young, fearless and quick players many of us were looking forward to watching, weren’t really at the races. Either that or plan […]
Afternoon guys. Thank goodness for Thursday night football eh? A break from the dullness the league serves us up and a chance to see the so called second string of Arsenal players in action. We should see Torreira, Chambers, Tierney, Holding, AMN, Martinez, Martinelli and Willock in action and Mustafi. Yes, I’m even looking forward […]
By AllezKev. Is VAR failing? Not for me, not when UEFA and FIFA are in charge, which is surprising given the track record of those organisations, but in general it’s been quick and accurate. And then we have the VAR officiated by PGMOL. VAR has hit the headlines here yet again. Well, there’s been […]
Morning all. Straight after the game I started to write today’s article but stopped when I realised what I was writing was very little different to that around five/six years ago. The personnel are different of course, much different but what we get to see on a match day remains so similar. Identical almost. If […]
Morning all. History, past results, Monday night football and playing in Yorkshire are all things in our favour tomorrow night. It’s amazing how much positive data can be dragged up from days gone by and used in a positive way before our next match. Which of course is against Sheffield Utd. We’ve won our last […]
Morning all. Arsene Wenger turns 70 next week and The Daily Mail have done a nice piece on him. The one thing which stuck out for me was how he hasn’t lost his ability to make a pound or two and regardless of who for. A charity auction, a dinner at some swanky place with […]
