Morning all. Man Utd come to town tomorrow for a Friday night FA Cup fixture. A first I think but the good thing is the Beeb are covering it so all those who refuse to line the pockets of Sky TV owners, can tune in. There’s been many a cracking match between the two sides […]
Morning all. Awful news about new Cardiff signing Emiliano Sala. There’s a chance he and others on board the plane could yet be found safe and well. I hope they are but it’s not looking good. So it’s six to nine months out for Hector Bellerin. Rotten news for him and his teammates, it really […]
Morning all. I like that from Michael Jordan although sometimes in life it’s hard, almost impossible to see something positive when the chips are down. Really down I mean and not just ‘having a bad day.’ Take Hector Bellerin. If his scan reveals an injury so bad it’ll end his season, how does can he […]
Not by Rico. One of the undeniable truths about football is that players are always moving in and out of clubs. Fans may sometimes regret how certain things turn out or get angry with the board and executives for letting them happen. One such instance is the most likely departure of Aaron Ramsey for Juventus, […]
Morning all. It’s not been the best of times for Arsenal or Unai Emery since he took over at Arsenal. One or two really promising performances tucked in between what can only be described as careless and below par ones. The injuries have come, gone and then come again which certainly hasn’t assisted Emery in […]
Morning guys. Speculation I know but ironic if true. AC Milan want to sign Mesut Ozil, or rather Paolo Maldini does but he’s got a fight on his hands trying to convince Ivan Gazidis to agree. Yes, the very man who was likely to have played a major role in awarding the German midfielder his […]
I know, two posts in one day but how could I not mention last nights victory for the under 18’s? Any win over that lot is good and this one is no different. Per Mertesacker, head of the Arsenal Academy. A privileged position as ultimately, the way he goes about his job has a big […]
Morning all. “In this transfer period it is not easy to take players that can help us with better performances than we have now,” he said. “The club is working for different possibilities but it is not easy. “They are private conversations [on Denis Suarez]. I don’t want to say to you what these conversations […]
Morning all. I wonder if Chelsea fans are excited about the reported imminent arrival of Gonzalez Higuain. A 31 year old striker on loan should see Morata move to Atletico Madrid. And there was me thinking it was only a skinflint club like Arsenal who dealt in loans. Seriously, if Higuain was heading to us […]
Morning all. When Arsene Wenger finally departed, it was meant to be the beginning of a new era, better football, improved coaching with a defence which looked like it knew what it was doing. We’d snapped up old ‘Diamond Eyes’ and Raul Sanllehi to bring a bit of Barcelona and Dortmund through the door and […]
Morning all. Stan Kroenke, Unai Emery and all those around and in between them have certainly woken up the Arsenal blog world. The circle of blame is spinning quicker than my yo-yo did as a kid. Stan Kroenke lacks ambition and financial clout. Emery picks the wrong players, can’t organise a defence and isn’t improving […]
Morning all. Like I said to you, we’ve won and lost with him. Today the players who were here are the players who deserved to be in this match. That’s from Unai Emery in case you didn’t realise. He’d been asked again about why Mesut Ozil wasn’t selected for the West Ham fixture. I don’t […]
