Can haz title hopes?

Two very big matches for us this weekend, though only one involves the club we love. Arsenal must beat Brentford to continue an upward trajectory but we need Liverpool-Man City to end a draw, for the Gunners to leapfrog them into the top spot. Last season around this time, Arsenal were top of the tableContinue reading “Can haz title hopes?”

The Gunners march on

Arsenal dispatched Newcastle 4-1 in sublime fashion, putting to rest the ire, Gooners (like yours truly) were holding on to, since their last meeting. The Gunners 6th Premier League win in a row means they’ve not lost a domestic match in 2024 so far. Arsenal keep pressure on City and Liverpool as the title raceContinue reading “The Gunners march on”

No coal, just goals

Ah the joys of European football. One team continually throwing themselves earthward while the referee handed out fouls like Halloween candy. But in the face of this, Arsenal were lackluster and failed to be clinical. Then in the dying moments of the match, the Gunners gave the ball away cheaply (repeatedly) and were stung byContinue reading “No coal, just goals”

Any Porto in a storm

After summarily dispatching West Ham 6-0, the Gunners trounced Burnley 5-0, giving them a full head of steam, heading into today’s knockout stage of the Champions League. Now, I don’t know too much about their opponent’s current form, but feeling pretty good about our chances. Just don’t want our lads to be gassed for NewcastleContinue reading “Any Porto in a storm”

Train kept a-rollin’

Bay Area Gooners had every right to feel conflicted this past weekend. Our local team fell short in their biggest game of the season, while Arsenal rolled over West Ham 6-nil. The match strayed into Harlem Globetrotters-Washington Generals territory and it seemed like any Arsenal player who touched the ball might get a goal. WatchingContinue reading “Train kept a-rollin’”

Big game tomorrow

To be honest, at this point in the season, they’re all big games. But with only 2 points separating Arsenal from top of the table Liverpool and Man City firing on all cylinders, the Gunners can ill afford to drop any points. But let’s take one last moment to revel in last weekend’s glorious win.Continue reading “Big game tomorrow”

3rd times the charm?

Arsenal host Liverpool this Sunday for the third time in the past six weeks. The first time was a hard fought draw at Anfield, while more recently the Reds bounce the Gunners out of the FA Cup. Liverpool sit atop the table and have not lost a Premier League match since last September. Arsenal reboundedContinue reading “3rd times the charm?”

Early in the morning

We’re back at it tomorrow, early in the morning. Almost two weeks since Arsenal’s last match and the boys have apparently been resting and practicing in Dubai. Hopefully the Gunners can re-find their form and get back in the title hunt. Our first pre-dawn kickoff of 2024 and of course, Maggie’s will be open forContinue reading “Early in the morning”
