The Offices Are Gunner Be Red Just Like North London
There is no better feeling going into work than the feeling going into work knowing you have beaten your rivals convincingly at the weekend. One of the many things Coronavirus robbed us of was the opportunity to strut into that office on a Monday morning feeling eight foot high, feeling like a rock star. No […]

5 Reasons why Arsenal will win the NLD
THE North London Derby is unlike any match and as any Gooner will tell you the anticipation felt ahead of the game is unique. There is excitement of course but it is more than tempered by a nervous energy which makes the build-up almost painful. It is a cliche to say that form goes out […]
The Arsenal Women Journal: Every inch Counts
Champions League, here we come!It wasn’t pretty, it wasn’t easy, but we made it to the group stage, which was the ultimate goal. Vivianne Miedema’s long-range strike was enough to see off a spirited Ajax side that threatened to spoil the party, midway through the second half.A matter of inches, really, exactly those that […]
Do Arteta’s Arsenal now have 2 players for each position? Yes or No?
It would be fair to say that the Arsenal fanbase in general showed a lack of faith and a fair amount of concern at the end of the Transfer Window. The worries concentrated around a lack of depth in central midfield and also on whether the squad had cover to rest and rotate an over […]
The Arsenal Women Journal: One For The Records
There is so much to say, so much to tell about the four-nil home win against Spurs that it’s truly hard to pick one player, one moment, one tactical aspect of this very welcome win. We could talk about the eighth straight clean-sheet; we could talk about Rafaelleʻs performance at the back (everywhere, actually…); we […]
Hating for Ratings: you don’t like us, we don’t care!! (Part 2)
Here we go again, well respected (not) pundit, ex professional footballer (barely), Jason Cundy (Google him if you’ve never heard of him), has laid into Arteta regarding Ethan Nwaneri. According to Cundy (would love to replace the D with a T!!!), it’s all about Arteta’s ego and not Ethan’s ability. Cun?y talking on TalkSport, to […]
The Arsenal Women Journal – An Underwhelming Night Under the Lights
Not ideal, right? Last night’s result leaves us in a very tricky position because we have to go to Amsterdam next week and win, if we want to make it to the Champions League group stage. All in all, the draw is a fair result as we started slowly and Ajax looked the better side […]
Lokonga well on the way to proving the end of Transfer Window Panic was unwarranted
It would be fair to say that the Arsenal fans were in state of panic when, with Partey and Elneny injured, the club failed to secure midfield reinforcements at the end of the transfer window. Undoubtedly the fans, and the media, watching a last evening scramble for Douglas Luiz saw it as a gamble, similar […]
Arsenal getting under the pundits skin – You don’t like us, we don’t care!!
Coming into the interlull, it’s great to look at ‘pundits’ scrabbling for headlines and as usual, it’s Arsenal players that seem to get their double barrels. Following bizarre/biased rants in the past from the likes of Jamie O’Hara: ‘Arsenal are Banter FC. Odegaard, Ramsdale, Ben White, Lokonga and Tavares. They’ve spent £135 million on a […]
