Arsenal’s Summer transfer has kicked off with the club announcing the signing of Willian on a free transfer. With hopefully a busy transfer window ahead, Arsenal are looking to add a defender, with Gabriel hopefully imminent and 2 midfielders. With talk of Dani Ceballos gone quiet, one name that won’t go away is Thomas Partey. […]
Initially, I think we were all very excited with the acquisition of Lucas Torreira from Sampdoria, back in the summer of 2018. His performances in the World Cup were impressive. The standout one was the game against Portugal, where he put in a tremendous display against Ronaldo. With two seasons of top flight English football […]
Episode 20 “Piebury Feels Forever” Chris and Gav talk through the sad (but hopefully temporary) demise of Piebury Corner, as well as the control Arteta now might have at the club after the hasty exit of Don Raul Sanllehi. Another bite-sized chunk of Arsenalness delivered fresh to your cranium. Tune in and see why the […]
With talk on Auba’s contract being close to completion, where does Aubameyang rank at Arsenal? By that, I mean is he a club legend? I’m going to argue in his favour. I don’t believe it’s hyperbole at all since I believe he is up there with Wright, Henry, Smith, Radford, George, Drake, […]
As a supporter I have been quite disturbed by the widespread media ‘knowledge’ that Ainsley Maitland-Niles is allegedly one of the players Arteta is willing to sacrifice to fund his rebuild at Arsenal.

Personally, I prefer him in the wider […]
Surely, even in modern football, it can be about tradition, history, previous glory and a desire to return to those times. Can’t it? Please tell me it can, or the game truly has gone to hell in a hand cart, as the old saying goes. Now is such a time for the new dynamic duo […]
History books will show that the period between February 2018 and August 2020 at Arsenal was undoubtedly a chaotic one. The club churned through four times as many managers in those two and a half years as they had done in the previous 22. On the pitch we dropped from a team battling just on […]
Reports broke on Friday from the reliable French source, L’Équipe, that Arsenal have made an approach for highly-rated Lyon midfielder – Houssem Aouar – in an attempt to bolster Mikel Arteta’s creative options in the middle of the park. Arsenal’s technical director, Edu, is thought to be the driving force behind the deal which would […]
Episode 19 “Will.I.An? Mesut Won’t. GK Shootout.” Gav, Dave and Mike dive into the muddy waters of the transfer market: who will sign? and when? Also a quick look at the Ozil Saga as it enters its Final Season (or not?) – and what to do about our abundance of fine shotstoppers… it’s a shootout […]
