For the subject of this week’s interview – U23 Goalkeeper Arthur Okonkwo – I’m tapping into the considerable knowledge of John Williamson: few know more when it comes to Arsenal’s Youth. The young shot-stopper came to most of our attention when Unai Emery included him in the travelling squad to Napoli in 2018/19. Arthur returned having […]
The last few days have seen several boosts and The Arsenal, on and off the pitch and it would be fair to say that the majority of us will be relishing the prospect of playing West Ham, and potentially staying top of the Premier League into week 2. Of course, it is early days, but […]
Episode 24 “Auba Signs Da Fing · Transfer Dominoes” Gav, Mike and Paul wax lyrical about Auba’s signing, how Arteta is making Arsenal an attractive destination for top players, and what needs to happen before the transfer window ends to get Arsenal’s squad in line with restrictions..
