Morning all, Well this is a huge statement made by John Cross, the man following Arsenal whilst on tour in the Far East: Gedion Zelalem looks the one to watch. Whisper it quietly, but the word is he’s every bit as good as – if not better than – Cesc Fabregas at the same age. […]
Morning all, Szczesny: You try not to think of the sagas — Cesc Fabregas, Robin van Persie and Samir Nasri. But it’s always in your mind you’ll lose another top player. This time, everyone is talking about who Arsenal are bringing in. That makes us feel stronger. The Poland No 1 was dropped for a […]
Morning all, But it’s not what we all wanted to hear. Players are already injured, others are sitting out training… Laurent Koscielny limped out of training with an ankle injury and Szczesny sat on the sidelines, only able to watch because of a back strain. Both are expected to miss this mornings penultimate friendly out […]
Morning all, It’s another no news day, so bear with me…… He wasn’t alone with this method of training, poor guys in such heat…. However, just around the corner….. Mmmmm, glad all hands are above water….. My woofa could do with one of those, not the ice of course, just a nice cool off during […]
Morning all, So the latest gossip links us to Mata, well in my mere humble opinion, he’d be a wonderful addition to our side, he’s pure class. A little genius who would give us something quite special in attack. Whether that poisonous little man who manages Chelsea would sanction such a sale to us is […]
Morning all, Has there ever been such a tedious transfer window….? Jose bids for Rooney, Arsene says we can afford his wages and wham. Jose suddenly wants Higuain and all no doubt because, he thinks Arsene Wenger has been desperately trying to sign him.. This latest twist smacks of someone, somewhere leaking a fabricated story […]
Morning all, Chelsea have started the ball rolling in the transfer window, well, they have got all the journalists and Sky Sports presenters excited. Yesterday it was confirmed that they had made an official bid for Wayne Rooney which was rejected. Jose made it clear later in the day that he is quite determined to […]
Morning all, The logical answer to that is, because we weren’t ever interested in signing them in the first place. There maybe many a piece of gossip in the newspapers, but I doubt they really know who Arsenal are hoping to sign, they just like to stir the pot! Why? Because they know that many […]
Morning all, Before the main post, a little bit of gossip…. According to The Daily Star, we are about to try and lure Brazil international Bernard to the Premier League. He’s 20 years old, very nippy and rumour is, he’s on the move. Joel Campbell yesterday confirmed that he’s finally been granted a work permit which […]
Morning all, What a day yesterday was…….. England secured the first test in the Ashes series, just! Then within minutes, Arsenal kicked off their first pre-season match which I sat and watched with a couple of friends who don’t have ESPN. I signed up on Saturday, just so I could watch this tour… Not long […]
Morning all, There’s an old saying – the camera never lies…… I’m sure everyone has seen the vast number of photographs of the players/staff on tour and don’t they all look happy? Arsene Wenger is calm and everything he says is positive. Just as it has been from Ivan Gazidis. They have both now told […]
Morning all, So the boys have landed safe and sound and it’s all systems go as we prepare for our first friendly tomorrow. But, instead of talking about what this tour has in store for our players, the first question asked of Arsene was all about Suarez and whether or not we really are prepared […]
