Morning all. Remember this? Of course you do, the sarcastic tweet from Ivan Toney after the opening fixture of last season. The comment was humiliating but that’s social media for you. Mikel Arteta used the comment to motivate his team in the return match at The Emirates, a match we won 2-1. Thomas Frank made […]
Morning all. Record crowds watched the Arsenal women beat their Brighton counterparts last night. 4-0 was the end result with Beth Mead continuing her Euro’s form by scoring two of the goals. Kim Little and Stina Blackstenius Scored the other two. An early red card for Brighton meant Arsenal had a pretty easy night in […]
Morning all. The club’s official website has announced the new date for the PSV Eindhoven fixture which will now be played on Thursday 20 October, kicking off at 6:00pm. All tickets purchased for the original date of this fixture remain valid, including tickets purchased via Ticket Exchange or received via Ticket Transfer. To accommodate the rescheduled PSV Eindhoven fixture, […]
Morning all. Our match on Thursday night has been postponed but Sunday’s game against Brentford will go ahead, albeit at midday instead of 2pm. I’m glad the Premier League along with both clubs have managed to sort this out because having to somehow fit three additional fixtures into an early busy season wouldn’t have been […]
Morning all. This weekend’s football is off but I’m not sure it’s the right thing to do, especially when all other sport seems to be carrying on in one way or another. History tells us that the Queen didn’t stop working because of a bereavement, in fact she began her working life because of one. […]
Morning all. The news so many people probably never wanted to hear, came yesterday. The passing of the Queen is dreadfully sad news, but not even she could go on forever. A truly remarkable lady who will be missed. Football kind of feels insignificant this morning but life goes on for all of us as […]
Afternoon all. Graham Potter has taken Chelsea job. I can understand why he’d want to move to a club which will give him more money to spend on transfers etc but as we’ve seen in the past, what he’ll really need is what Chelsea don’t usually give and that’s time. Sounds obvious I know but […]
Morning all. European football for the 2022/23 season has kicked off. Man City breezed through their fixture but Chelsea suffered a shock 1-0 defeat to Dinamo Zagreb. Aubameyang made his debut for the west London club which according to reports, didn’t go as well as perhaps he or Thomas Tuchel hoped. Not as well as […]
Morning all. Isn’t it frustrating to read that whilst the Arsenal first team are struggling to find the back of the net, Flo Balogun is scoring goals in France? Heck, even Nuno Tavares is scoring goals too. Apparently he’s been superb so far this season. Do I think Mikel Arteta should have kept either or […]
Morning all. What could and should have been a great game was once again ruined by dreadful officiating. Tierney had the opportunity to show he was a better referee than those who’ve been heavily criticised after the Saturday matches. The same applies to VAR. McTominay should have been booked after dangerously shoving Gabriel Martinelli in […]
Morning all. Old Trafford. A ground where regardless of which of the two clubs are in form, is hard to predict. Last season, a dreadful Utd team beat us 3-2 in this fixture but to this day I still don’t know how or why we left Manchester without at least a point. I know we […]
Morning all. Despite having one of the best transfer windows in years, I feel disappointed this morning. Arsenal tried to sign Douglas Luiz yesterday but Aston Villa kept rejecting the offers made. Having been linked with Youri Tielemans all summer, he didn’t arrive either. As the saying goes, it is what it is…. Deadline day […]
