Morning all. That really was edge of the seat stuff. Aaron Ramsdale will no doubt hog the headlines for the wrong reasons but, let’s be honest here, he ending up keeping us in the game with a couple of outstanding saves. The one from Ivan Toney was incredible. Mikel Arteta made two changes to the […]
Morning all. Another weekend, another Arsenal league fixture. We face Brentford this evening, Porto on Tuesday and then that’s it for nearly three weeks as the international game takes over. The key points from Mikel Arteta’s post match press conference: Team news: Not much, we got some players back last Monday, and then we had […]
Morning all. Remember the ‘Arsenal don’t like it up ‘em’ comments or the ‘southern softies’ which usually came from the likes of Pulis, Big Sam – or any manager of a club based up north. The pundits loved it of course and would often join in on a match day. Well, scrub that label these […]
Morning all. Mikel Arteta stuck by the old ‘if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it’ mantra yesterday evening as he fielded the same starting eleven for the second match running. If it was because he’d anticipated a tricky game as I did,, he couldn’t have been more wrong. The fixture turned out to be […]
Morning all. Arsenal women kept their chance of a WSL trophy intact yesterday by beating Totts 1-0. It was a frustrating performance because they struggled to find the net in the first half. Right after the break, Alessia Russo tapped home a sitter after some good work from Beth Mead. Not one Premier League result […]
Morning all. Declan Rice has been named Premier League Player of the Year at the 2024 London Football Awards. His goal against West Ham United is a contender for February’s Premier League Goal of the Month too. Speaking on-stage at the event, Declan said: Since I’ve walked through the doors [at Arsenal] I’ve loved every […]
Morning guys. So then, the occasion has finally arrived. Thomas Partey is not only back in training but he’ll be in the squad on Monday night. Thomas had a session before the last game and now he’s done two consecutive sessions so he should be part of the squad on Monday. What about Zinchenko and […]
Morning all. In FA Cup week, Manchester City and Liverpool progressed through to the quarter-final with ease but both Chelsea and Manchester Utd needed very late goals to secure their place in the next round. Newcastle Utd needed penalties to see off Blackburn whilst Wolves defeated Brighton. Coventry saw off Maidstone Utd and Leicester City […]
Morning all. Who’d have thought that Jorginho, Jakub Kiwior and Kai Havertz would have quietly made a big difference to Mikel Arteta’s first team performances. Jorginho against Liverpool and Newcastle, was superb and walked away from both with the man of the match award. Kiwior, who’d been criticised around the internet for his performances at […]
Morning all. I didn’t watch the League Cup Final but having read about it this morning, it seems Chelsea’s multi pound squad should have won it. Shoulda’ coulda’ doesn’t win matches though and by the end of extra time, Van Dijk’s late header had won Klopp another trophy. Hopefully his last in England. Many fans […]
Morning all. Pre match, Mikel Arteta and Martin Odegaard had asked the Arsenal fans to bring their voices with them to The Emirates for last nights game. They probably didn’t need to ask but boy, the stadium really was rocking and I doubt the sound on television did the atmosphere justice. . Newcastle Utd were […]
Morning all. I touched on part of Mikel Arteta’s press conference yesterday, the bit about the fans needing to be in full swing later. I’m sure every Arsenal fan whether in the stadium or not will be hoping for a top notch Arsenal performance and a win against Newcastle Utd. They’ve had enough good fortune […]
