Happy Tuesday boys and girls. Let’s start with some FA Cup news, shall we? After all, we did learn last night our fate and opponents in the Fifth Round of the FA Cup and as I hoped for last in yesterday’s blog, we got the kind of draw that our compact fixture schedule could probably […]
It’s FA Cup Sunday for The Arsenal today and i’ve got to be honest, I’m absolutely hanging out of me arse. Had a lovely linguine alle vongole that I cooked for me ‘n the Management and sunk a bottle of Soave and two cabernet sauvignon’s whilst watching Brad Pitt in Bullet Train. So the standard of today’s […]
I am in a quandary as to how I feel this morning. On the one hand, I’m really disappointed in the draw away at Brentford. We had an opportunity to keep City at arm’s length, we had the chance to show our credentials, we could have laid down a marker for the league. In this […]
With Arteta not doing his presser until today, there’s still a bit of time for us to chew the fat over different things, so I thought I’d start today by doing that with the results from last night. Tottenham Hotspur. HAHAHAHAHAHA. I fully realise their next game is against us. I fully realise that there […]
I thought that was a hard-earned victory yesterday against Sunderland. They’re a good team. A physical team. A team who know their strengths and is good at reducing its deficiencies. The data nerds may well raise an occasional eyebrow at how well they’ve done this season, but having watched them frustrate us and stifle us […]
I was flying back to Blighty yesterday from me hols, so I missed about 55 minutes of the Liverpool versus City game. I switched on my Sky App as I was going through the airport, so I saw the Superb Szoboszai goal to put them one up. It was interesting because reading the commentary on […]
We find out team news from Mikel Arteta today, so we’ll know what we’re dealing with when it comes to tomorrow’s opposition, Sunderland, but I wonder what Mikel is thinking from a tactical perspective? From a fitness point of view, the news we have all unofficially heard is that Saka is out until probably the […]
So it looks like it’s City in the final of the League Cup for us in March then. The current top two are battling it out for the first trophy of the season, after Newcastle went out with a bit of a whimper against Pep’s 115 Charges FC, of which Pep isn’t happy that Marc […]
It’s match day, it’s the league Cup Semi final, it’s Chelsea at the Emirates. It is not exactly a ‘must win’, but certainly you want this Arsenal team to go out there tonight and deliver the kind of performance that sends messages to the rest of the world that we are ready to take the […]
Three goals, three points, an away win to the team currently first in Serie A, doing it with a rotated team, players in attack finding form. What’s not to like about yesterday’s 3-1 win at the San Siro? Before a ball was kicked, yesterday morning and afternoon, I was excited for this game. The reason […]
