Arsenal’s biggest problem is themselves…

Morning all. Premier League football is back, better still, The Arsenal are back. At least I think that’s a good thing. Arsenal v Liverpool, two clubs which have had a very up and down season so far. Liverpool’s defence of their title has been poor but they’ve...

A double “No” from Mikel Arteta.

Morning all. Easter is upon us which means lots of chocolate. I jest, of course Good Friday means something very different to an overpriced oval shaped hollow chocolate egg but I don’t want to get all religious on you so I won’t. The sun is supposed to shine and...

Mikel Arteta interview – positivity all the way.

Morning all. It’s a big day here in the England as the first stage of lockdown restrictions being lifting begins. For the older generation, especially those who’ve spent the last year on their own, they can see family and friends. Limitations are still in place but...

Another NLD today & Azeez faces Arsenal.

  Morning all. He’s a guy isn’t he. If Mikel Arteta had another five or six players in the squad with Kieran Tierney’s attitude, desire and passion for the game along with the respect he clearly has for his manager and the club, Arsenal would be a lot further up...

Internationals, MasterChef or Netflix?

Morning all. Who to watch? Bernd Leno and his German teammates take on Iceland. If you’re really lucky, Alex Runasson might be between the posts for Iceland too. Two birds, one stone and all that. Daniel Ballard, currently away from Arsenal on loan is likely to be in...

Morning all. The international break is upon us. Two weeks of crossing anything which can be crossed in hope that none of our players pick up injuries whilst away with their respective countries.   Those away are: Emile Smith Rowe, Eddie Nketiah, Pierre-Emerick...

Best game of the season, for the neutral.

Morning all. This was a game made for the neutral. It was full of thrills, mistakes, spills and terrible defending, really terrible defending, but it was also a game so so typical of this current Arsenal team. An Arsenal team which during this pandemic of a season,...

Be aware of the break…..

  Morning all. Tough game today I think. With Mikel Arteta ending his football career at Arsenal under Arsene Wenger and beginning his coaching career alongside Pep Guardiola, it’s easy to lose sight of the many years he spent being coached by David Moyes. Not...

Slavia Prague, not nice.

by | Saturday, March 20, 2021 | Daily Bits and Bobs

Morning all. Not the best result Arsenal could have had in yesterday’s Europa League draw but not the worst. Barring perhaps Molde and Granada, every team left in this competition will be a tough nut to crack. Slavia Prague might very well have a UEFA investigation...
