Morning all. How many times have we heard Mikel Arteta say there would be bumps in the road as Arsenal’s journey under his process continues? Yes, quite a few. Last night’s performance was possibly the worst this group of players has played since the turn of the year, so much so, it was more like […]
Morning all. West Ham, Totts and Wolves all won their fixtures this weekend but Man Utd dropped two points at home and Chelsea, the shock of the weekend, dropped all three at Stamford Bridge. I watched some of the Totts v Newcastle and I thought Eddie Howe’s team were pretty poor. I expect every […]
Morning all. The draw for the World Cup took place yesterday and a few interesting groups came out of the pot. England’s group could see players from Arsenal up against old friends and new. Matt Turner, who’s expected at the club in the summer, could line up against Bukayo Saka, Ben White, ESR and Aaron […]
Morning all. What a day of weather we had here in the UK yesterday. Wind, rain, sunshine and snow, big flakes of snow. Snow in March? Well, Alex Lacazette did score a hat-trick the day before… Not a good day for the Arsenal women though as Wolfsburg ended any dreams they might have had for […]
Morning all. The England fans who booed Harry Maguire last night should feel ashamed. I’ve never been a fan of the player but not so long ago, he was part of an England team which reached the Euros final. Were those same fans booing him then? If England fans want the team to go far […]
Morning all. Arsenal are playing well, individually and collectively. Mikel Arteta, his coaching staff and his players, many of whom have been under heavy scrutiny over the last 18 months, are now performing. Those who have been afforded an opinion on all things Arsenal in public, are now having to write nice things. There’ll always […]
Morning all. Happy Mother’s Day to all the Mum’s out there. My four legged furry one popped off and bought me a bunch of yellow tulips. Beautiful they are too. Talking of celebrations, Mikel Arteta turned 40 yesterday. It’s hard to believe he’s been the Arsenal manager for nearly two and half years already. I […]
Morning all. Bukayo Saka is back home in London. With Covid! Emile Smith Rowe is unwell too and is likely to miss at least one of the two international friendlies. Well, it’s better they’re ill on England’s time and not Arsenal’s, I just hope they both recover in time for the trip to Crystal Palace. […]
Morning all. Ideas for writing about Arsenal are running out. Run out really during this international break. The past is probably best left where is otherwise we’ll cry one minute, laugh the next, or get frustrated knowing things might have been better had George Graham not made the choice he did, David Dein and the […]
Morning all. Bukayo Saka openly admitted to BT Sport that at Villa Park, he spoke to referee Andrew Madley about the treatment he was getting from the Villa players during the game. I wasn’t complaining to the ref but I just wanted to let him know that that’s my game, running at players with pace, and […]
Morning all. For Arsenal fans, a transfer window is all about who the club is going to sign. A midfielder, defender, striker, winger, you name it, we want it, but I think it matters not who the club, or any football club signs if on the training ground, things aren’t right. If players don’t believe […]
Morning all. Ever since Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang stopped scoring goals for Arsenal, alarm bells have been ringing rather loudly. The club tried to sign Dusan Vlahovic in January, if reports are to be believed that is, so we can pretty much guarantee to see a striker or two arrive this summer but this time. Mikel Arteta’s […]
