Edu and Arteta “The saddest thing ….is that many fans don’t want to set any goals for Arteta. IMO deep in their heart, they are admitting that Arteta is not up to a Top-4 fight. It is frightening how our expectations have been driven down.” Apparently spending a boatload of…
Arteta and Josh in America Many Gooners think beating Chelsea 4-0 last Saturday in a pre-season friendly was significant and predictive of our future. Yes, victory was good and a positive sign. Gabriel Jesus and Saka scoring goals was even better. But let’s not get carried away. For heaven’s sake…
Ex-pro, Tim Head, @ForeverHeady, was our special guest as together with ex-scout Ehab we discussed explosive debut of Gabriel Jesus in helping the Gunners overcome a 2-goal deficit to defeat second-division Nurnberg FC in their preseason friendly.

According to the rumor mill, the Gunners were in prime position because they were…
Finally Arsenal has a “modern”, “ambitious” manager who is not afraid to spend big money on transfers to take the club to the “next level“. That much is indisputable after the club spent a record €167.42m in the summer of 2021-22 in support of Mikel Arteta’s shift to youthful talent…
In our Arsenal post-season review me and Blackburn George, @arseblagger, are joined by Millsy, from a Gooner family with a 120 year-old allegiance to the club. We acknowledge there have been organic improvements under manager Mikel Arteta but note it was both injuries to key players and a managerial decision…
