Skip to content Morning folks – happy Saturday n all that Jazz. Well, probs not for poor ol’ Viktor Gyokeres, whose Sweden side were beaten 2-0 by a Granit Xhaka-fuelled SWitzerland side at home yesterday evening. I had a little look on Sofascore at how he got on and they rated him as a 7.2, […]
Talking about stadium seats – Suburban Gooners
I was too focused yesterday on what I wanted from the international break from an Arsenal perspective, that I didn’t even talk about the stadium expansion that’s been talked about for the last couple days, so as I try desperately to fill my thoughts and this blog on Arsenal stuff so I can avoid talking […]
Looking ahead to the ‘Build’ chunk of games – Suburban Gooners
Skip to content With the interlull now upon us, I’m minded to start looking ahead to the few week’s after this interminable international break has concluded because frankly, I have zero interest in seeing what England side has been patched together because Liverpool, Chelsea, United and City have all withdrawn players with minor ‘injuries’. On […]

A look at West Ham fan view, probabilities and the likelihood of lightning striking thrice – Suburban Gooners
Happy Friday folks – how we all doing? Feeling pretty chipper after two wins this last week? Ready for a hopeful third tomorrow? I am.

The familiar foe, but an unknown quantity: Olympiacos – Suburban Gooners
Skip to content It’s match day two of the Champions League tonight and after Liverpool dropped points to Galatasaray and the Scum also dropped points to The WIFI password, it should serve as a telling reminder that just because we are in the Best League in the World (refereeing body aside), doesn’t mean we have any […]
Arsenal overcome controversy to stake an early claim in the title race against Newcastle – Suburban Gooners
Skip to content Where to even start after yesterday, eh? I think I want to be broadly positive today, because when you snatch a victory from the jaws of defeat with a last minute goal in extra time, then you have to be feeling positive rather than dwell on some of the negatives. So I’m […]
Arteta’s reference of Barcelona could be telling for Newcastle trip tomorrow – Suburban Gooners
Happy Saturday folks, hope you’re doing well and after Mikel Arteta all but confirmed what we were talking about yesterday re: Saliba, that’s one positive we can all take about the official announcement that the Frenchman will remain with us for a fair old dose of time yet. I liked what Arteta said about how […]
Arsenal dominate Port Vale in a game won in eight minutes – Suburban Gooners
Skip to content After the first five minutes last night, seeing that Port Vale had got the ball into our final third a couple of times and an excited Vale Park home set of supporters had ratcheted up the noise a little bit, I wondered whether we’d get a bit of an open cup tie […]
Arteta learning and a Martinelli central test run against Port Vale? – Suburban Gooners
Skip to content Ok, so we’re over 24 hours now since the disappointing 1-1 draw against City and – ridiculous comments from Bernardo Silva about the turnaround time they had compared to us to prep for the game (hello? We played Atalanta away on the Thursday before we travelled up to Manchester in the corresponding […]
