Morning all. January has been disappointing for Mikel Arteta, his players and us, the fans. I would say disastrous and to be fair, I wouldn’t be far wrong. We started the New Year in 4th place and in both both domestic cups with one being a semi-final but we’ve finished it with one point added […]
Morning all. No Granit Xhaka and no Thomas Partey for the visit of Burnley this afternoon as both are serving suspensions. I’ve no idea what’s happening with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang but I doubt he’s been declared fit to play yet, not that he seems to be in Mikel Arteta’s plans anyway. Cedric Soares, Calum Chambers, Bernd Leno […]
Morning all. The headlines on NN, the back pages and social media relate to Mikel Arteta and a suggested two year contract extension. Inevitable really after previous headlines in the same place, suggested Mikel Arteta was being lined up to replace Pep Guardiola when he calls time at Man City. Arteta’s contract with Arsenal is […]
Morning all. That’s it for Arsenal for another season, at least as far as winning silverware goes but I suppose to put it into some kind of context, it’s the same for most clubs in the Premier League. Even though others are left in Europe or either/both of the domestic Cups, nothing has been won […]
Morning all. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has been offered a way out of Arsenal by Saudi club Al Nassr. I hope the player says yes and this whole sorry affair is put to bed. Arsenal are changing, we’ve moved away from signing big players on huge wages to signing younger players who can be moulded into the […]
Morning all. Thomas Tuchel said his Chelsea’s players are “tired mentally and physically” after they drew 1-1 at Brighton last night. Bless him eh. He has a squad deeper than most other clubs in the Premier League barring Man City so if he’s not rotating his players well enough, that’s his problem. The Christmas and […]
Afternoon all. I don’t know the full story and I’m not going to guess but whatever is going on with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, I wish him well. He’s a human being, a footballer and right now, he’s an Arsenal player. It doesn’t matter that his form has been off, nor does it matter that he was […]
Morning all. West Ham dropping three points at home against Leeds and Aston Villa coming back from 2-0 down to draw against Man Utd this weekend did Arsenal a favour. We’ve gone from being the club others could catch because of games in hand, to the club which has two fixtures in hand over 4th […]
Morning all. The Premier League did the right thing yesterday by postponing today’s NLD. The Premier League released a statement saying: Following a request from Arsenal FC, the Premier League Board met today and regrettably agreed to postpone the club’s away fixture against Tottenham Hotspur, due to be played at 4:30pm on Sunday 16 January. […]
Morning all. For the first time this season, Arsenal have submitted an official request to have a fixture postponed, a combination of Covid 19 cases and injuries believed to be the reason. Also for the first time this season, as far as I’ve read anyway, Jamie Carragher and Gary Neville are strongly objecting with both […]
Morning all. I’m pretty sure that was the strongest team Mikel Arteta could field out their last night. Jurgen Klopp too. Clearly, both managers want to be at Wembley next month. Another big match and another red card for an Arsenal player. This time it was Granit Xhaka. Michael Oliver had only one thing […]
Morning all. Flo Balogun has gone for the remainder of the season. Chris Wilder, manager of Middlesbrough, had Sheffield Utd playing some of the best football the club has played in recent years, so hopefully he’ll work wonders with Flo. The Championship is a tough League and Middlesbrough are sitting just one place off the […]
