I look forward to watching Mikel Arteta’s press conferences. Not just because he’s the Arsenal manager and my interest in Arsenal and our games, although obviously that’s the primary reason I even bother tuning in (I’m not sat at home watching every Pep Guardiola Man City press scrum). Not just for Arteta’s salacious transfer tittle-tattle […]
A colleague on GT inspired me to articulate something that has been on my mind in recent weeks, by writing this excellent piece earlier today. Thomas Bahnson identified a problem that has become evident as Arteta’s team have recently struggled to break down a well-organised low block from Newcastle, Everton and Brentford.

The Gunners were widely mocked after the opening weeks of the season, as they sat bottom of the Premier League, and jokes were made that relegation could be on the cards. However, very few opposing fans are laughing now, […]
Our manager isn’t the finished article. He has made mistakes in the past and he will make mistakes in the future. However the bumps in the road are becoming further and further apart.

Sun, sand, the ocean and a whole lot of footy. What a success for Mikel Arteta and his Arsenal squad this mid winter trip to Dubai has been. It really has been a breath of fresh air to see the injured players ease back into training, the players working on tactics and technical play; and […]
