Morning all. Well well, Everton dealt Liverpool a big blow to their league title chase last night. A 2-0 win for Dyche’s side means Liverpool need us to lose at least one game and Man City to lose two if they’re to win one last trophy under Klopp. That’s assuming Liverpool can win their remaining […]
Morning all. Mikel Arteta after the game: Yeah, a big performance, collectively and individually I thought we were really good against a really good team that was in great form, and they were going to ask us a lot of questions, and we responded really well. From the start of the game I think we […]
Morning all. When Mauricio Pochettino arrived at Chelsea, great things were expected of his team/squad. The club had spend numerous of millions of pounds on new players both young and old and Poch, well he was the man to get them back into the big time. Things haven’t quite gone to plan though, assuming there […]
Morning all. Takehiro Tomiyasu picked up a knock against Bayern Munich so Jakub Kiwior slotted in at left back. The rest of the team sprung no surprise really other than Declan Rice not having a midfield partner for the second league game running. The first half was all about Arsenal really, how many chances missed, […]
Morning all. Early yesterday evening, Arsenal FC announced that Sir Chips Keswick had passed away. He was a lifelong Arsenal fan who became a board member in 2005 before replacing Peter Hill-Wood as club Chairman in 2013. Seven seasons later and just after celebrating his 80th birthday, he retired. Arsenal FC have a tribute to […]
Morning all. So the FA has taken the fun out of the FA Cup as there’s to be no more replays from next season. Better for Premier League clubs? Some yes but not all and certainly for the rest of the leagues. Apparently they weren’t even consulted before this decision was made which I think […]
Morning all. What is there to say other than we won’t be winning the Champions League this season. Mind you, not for one minute did I think we will. The only disappointment I have is not being knocked out of the competition but the fashion in which we were. The ‘not having a top notch […]
Morning all. It’s conundrum time. Field the strongest team, risk injury and/or fatigue which in all likelihood will have an impact on the game against Wolves, or rotate one, two or more for tonight’s game? Playing Bayern Munich in Germany is a tough challenge for any club in football let alone a group of players […]
Morning all. I’m still disappointed with the defeat we suffered at the weekend as I’m sure we all are. Losing is no sin but at home with a squad more than capable of beating most teams in this league, well, it hurts. Factor in the stage of the season we’re at and where we are […]
Morning all. When Crystal Palace beat Liverpool in the early game yesterday afternoon, the door opened for Arsenal to put a bit of space between themselves and Klopp’s team. But, to achieve that, Arsenal, including Mikel Arteta, had to respect the opposition and be aware of the threat they posed. Villa aren’t 4th in the […]
Morning all. Mikel Arteta held his post Aston Villa press conference yesterday during which he spoke about Jurrien Timber and when he might return: He’s still got a few steps to make. He needs to play a game, at least with the under-21s and he’s going to have an in-house game soon as well. He’s […]
Morning all. Two good results in Europe last night as Liverpool were thumped 3-0 at Anfield by Atalanta meaning Klopp will have to play his strongest team in the next leg if Liverpool are to have a chance on progressing through to the next round. Aston Villa beat Lille 2-1 at Villa Park so they […]
