Morning. A quick Friday blog for you as I’m heading to London this morning. The game against Newcastle will be on the agenda when Mikel Arteta meets the press this morning, and I’m curious to see what kind of form he’s in. After his comments following the Liverpool game, I suspect the message will be […]

Welcome to another episode of the Arsecast – the Arsenal podcast. In this episode I’m joined by Amy Lawrence to discuss Arsenal’s season and to explore some of the reasons things have gone the way they have. We chat about Mikel Arteta’s recent demeanour and what he will have learned since last August, issues of […]

Back in 2019, then Bournemouth midfielder Harry Arter deleted his twitter account. This is not especially remarkable. Only slightly more remarkable was the reason. Arter had responded to a tweet from the Labour party that said, ‘In a fair society, there would be no billionaires.’ His response, predictably, drew a slew of counter responses and […]

Morning all. Arsenal held an open training session yesterday in front of a few thousands fans at the stadium, and there were a few interesting bits and pieces to take from it. Starting with the fact that Kai Havertz was back and took full part in the proceedings. With Newcastle visiting on Sunday, that’s a […]

Morning all. I saw a story from Simon Collings in the Evening Standard about how Lazio are going to take up the option on Nuno Tavares who has spent the season on loan there. The plan, apparently, is to immediately sell him and make a profit – but Arsenal would stand to benefit because of […]

Morning. I reckon this is going to be a pretty quiet week in terms of Arsenal news. It’s been so hectic of late, the fact there’s no midweek game provides an opportunity for some quiet reflection on how everything has gone. I don’t really want to do that right now, there are still two games […]

Welcome to another Arsecast Extra, the Arsenal podcast, with myself and James from @gunnerblog. In this episode we look back at Sunday’s 2-2 draw with Liverpool. Arsenal had a bad first half, conceding two very sloppy goals, but turned things around with a much improved second half performance. We chat about the key incidents, tactical […]

Match report – Player ratings – Arteta reaction – Video Football really is a mad thing. At half-time yesterday, I was kinda hoping to get away without taking a real pasting at Anfield, and by the end there was a pang of real regret that Martin Odegaard’s low shot hadn’t crept in to give the […]

Morning. It’s quite difficult to preview a game that ultimately is more or less meaningless for both sides. Nevertheless, I do think there are some interesting elements to today’s proceedings. Liverpool might well be ‘on the beach’, but the beach is a fun place to be, and at home in front of their own fans, […]
