Morning all. So, here we are again. Nothing. There’s no Bruno Guimaraes news – no bid, no “talks progressing”, not even a lazily-sourced “Arsenal are monitoring the situation” to chew on over a coffee. And then yesterday Sky went and confirmed the thing a few of us had already quietly braced ourselves for: Vinicius Junior […]
So, after a summer in which Liverpool thought they were signing Diomande, then PSG, Real Madrid are the one’s pulling the trigger, which will be an ‘all-in’ fee of around £100million when the bonuses are factored in (€120million). As I mentioned yesterday, that means Madrid now have: Mbappe Vinicius Junior Rodrygo Endrick Diomande Brahim Dias […]
It’s Saturday The Arsenal have still not kicked off matches yet, so my hope is that they are using the time effectively to “Spend some faaaakin’ money!”. A bit of a blast-from-the-past phrase to bust out, I know, but you’d hope Andrea Berta is somewhere doing something to augment the squad soon. Tzolis was a […]
Now that we know that Big Bill Saliba is out for an ‘extended period’, Arsenal’s need for a little more expediency in the transfer market has become even more acute. We all already knew, in reality, because we’ve been hearing the stories from the French press. But as an Arsenal fan, you still await to […]
Having spent the last few weeks worrying about how many of our players are going to come back from the World Cup in one piece, yesterday it was nice to see a training video released of some of those players not at the competition return to pre-season training yesterday. The most pleasing of all has […]
I missed what appeared to be quite an entertaining game yesterday, as England and France duked out a pointless Bronze Trophy game 6-4, but the headlines certainly have Arsenal interest for sure. For starters, most of the Arsenal boys got on to the pitch, with Rice, Saka, and Eze all starting. And lo and behold, […]
Those Arsenal England fans still reeling from the exit in the World Cup will hopefully take some Tzolis in the news that we have a shiny new signing about to be announced (see what I did there? I’m here all week…). Yep, it appears we have a Greek lad on the way, and it feels like […]
So it looks like Leo Trossard is touching down in Istanbul today, to finalise his move to Besiktas, and with that, he closes the chapter on his three-and-a-half years at The Arsenal. And considering the fact he was the ‘second place’ option after Mudryk, I don’t think you’ll find an Arsenal fan around who isn’t […]
I saw a video yesterday of Rice and Odegaard having a long conversation after the England v Norway game on Saturday evening. Seeing those two locked in a chat was interesting, and had me thinking what they might be talking about. Maybe Martin was asking Declan how sick he was? Maybe they were talking about […]
Mikel Merino man. He’s a bloody international cheat code. I remember him scoring a headed goal at Euro 2024 against the Germans in the July of that summer. He would go on to sign for us about six weeks later, but by then we sort of half-knew that he was of interest to the club. […]
