Morning all. Rumours linking Arsenal to Dusan Vlahovic have been running for a while now, the latest being we’re pushing hard for a deal to be completed this month although the Daily Mail suggests it would set the club back £150m to do so. No, I’ve no idea where they got that figure from either. […]
Morning all. That was awful. Possibly the worst I’ve seen Arsenal play in ages. Worse than The Etihad, Anfield, Brentford, Everton and Old Trafford put together. If Mikel Arteta and his players wanted another good FA Cup run, they didn’t show it. From back to front, as a team we were toothless, unimaginative and outplayed. […]
Morning all. Yesterday’s FA Cup 3rd round threw up some interesting results. Newcastle Utd lost at home to Cambridge Utd, Burnley got beaten at home by Huddersfield Town and Reading were knocked out of the competition by Kidderminster! Both Everton and Southampton needed extra time to win their ties against lower division clubs. The best […]
Morning all. Arsenal have announced the players will be wearing an all white kit for tomorrow’s FA Cup fixture against Nottingham Forest. Mikel Arteta wore a white hooded top during yesterday’s pre-match press conference, clearly in support of the “No More Red” anti-knife crime campaign Arsenal are heavily involved in. Well obviously, we have been […]
Morning all. The Football League bottled making a big decision yesterday. Instead of telling Liverpool to use their Under 23 players to boost their squad numbers so our League Cup semi-final fixture could go ahead tonight, they took the easy option, or rather the best option for Liverpool, and postponed it. Arsenal ave now had […]
Morning all. Liverpool have asked the EFL to postpone our fixture against them tomorrow evening. However, there are rules which state that clubs must have less than 14 players available – including a goalkeeper – from their registered first-team squad. Players under the age of 21, who are not on their side’s first-team squad list, but […]
Morning all. I know a transfer window can produce silly headlines but the Bukayo Saka to Liverpool story is just stupid. Admittedly, Liverpool must be an attractive proposition for many players with Jurgen Klopp as their manager and the history associated with club but unless their American owners are ready to make Arsenal an offer […]
Morning all. Yet again, the officials are making the headlines instead of the game itself. This time it was Anthony Taylor who, after just seconds of the match being played, bottled making a big decision by booking Sadio Mane instead of sending him off. Six seconds, six minutes or sixty minutes, it matters not, if […]
Morning all. When the team news was announced, I was surprised to see Tomiyasu Takehiro’s name included in the starting eleven. Thrilled too I hasten to add. Other than the inclusion of ESR, I think Arsenal’s strongest team lined up to take on Pep Guardiola’s team and boy did we take them on. We bettered […]
Good morning to you all and welcome to 2022! I hope it brings better times than the year we’ve said goodbye to. Let it be a year when Covid fizzles out somewhat and infections and deaths are nowhere near the numbers they are today. We can but hope. The transfer window is officially open now […]
Morning all. Liverpool dropped three points against Leicester City last night which is not only great for Man City, but the rest of the clubs floating around the top four too. As was Southampton, playing with ten men from the 39 minute mark, holding Toots to a draw. There is now just six points between […]
Morning all. Thomas Partey, Nicolas Pepe, Mo Elneny and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang will all be available for our New Year’s Day fixture against Man City as Sky Sports have confirmed all Premier League players will remain in England until the 3rd of the month. The rescheduled Africa Cup of Nations will be played in Cameroon between […]
