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 […]
Morning all. I read a headline about how Chris Sutton believes Mikel Arteta doesn’t trust his entire squad. An opinion based on how many times players are rested and rotated in comparison to Klopp at Liverpool and Guardiola at Man City. This subject wasn’t raised after Arsenal smashed Burnley 5-0, Liverpool 3-1 or West Ham […]
Morning all. Call it stupid, naive, sloppy – call it what you want but perhaps I prefer inexperience. 93 minutes on the clock, with just one to go, the only thing Arsenal should be doing is keeping the ball or booting it into row z. A hoof up the pitch was not the best move […]
Morning all. As we all know, if one looks hard enough, answers to most questions can be found on the internet so I went searching in attempt to find out what Porto FC are all about. After being bamboozled by tactical jargon, the gist is, they’re going to be difficult to beat. Their manager is […]
Morning all. A few of us have touched on this subject already I know but how will Mikel Arteta deal with the return of Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko? More to the point, what are your thoughts? Jakub Kiwior has gone from strength to strength, notching up assists along the way and Leandro Trossard has […]
Morning all. What a great day for Arsenal Football Club. At lunchtime, the women thumped Manchester United 3-1 and then at 3pm, the men cruised past Burnley scoring another five goals in the process. That’s five wins in a row since the turn of the year which is a first for any Arsenal team […]
Morning all. Another away fixture for Mikel Arteta and his players and it could be a tough one. Burnley are in a relegation battle so they need points. They’re seven points behind Luton who sit fourth from bottom. Any one of nine clubs could in theory be relegated in May as it’s that close […]
Morning all. Bukayo Saka is an incredible footballer for his young years. Yes he has games in which things don’t always go right but what footballer doesn’t? Even the great Thierry Henry, Dennis Bergkamp and Ian Wright had off days. Is Bukayo Saka world class? Probably not but he’s fantastic for Arsenal FC and […]
Morning all. Arsenal desperately needed a striker during the January transfer window, or at least that’s what I thought and I wasn’t the only one. Such a suggestion might sound bonkers now, having beaten Crystal Palace, Liverpool and West Ham by scoring three or more goals in each game but I still think a prolific […]
Morning all. I thought Mikel Arteta’s team might have a tough afternoon at the London Stadium but as it turned out, the players probably had one of the easiest afternoons they’ve had in a long time.West Ham might sing about forever blowing bubbles but they had their own big bubble royally burst during 100 odd […]
Morning all. No Premier League results fell in our favour yesterday. How on earth did Brighton allow themselves to lose against Totts in the 97th minute – and there was me thinking De Zerbi was the next best thing since managerial sliced bread. Burnley and Everton put up a good fight in their games against […]
Morning all. The International Football Association Board [IFAB] will publish the detailed protocols for sin-bin trials in professional football later today. The IFAB is expected to include a provision for blue cards. During the trials, referees will have the power to send players off for 10 minutes for dissent or cynical fouls. Two blue cards […]
