Winning ugly, Huerzeler’s tears, and the return of the defensive wall It wasn't pretty. It wasn't fun to watch. Arsenal didn't play well and Brighton kept us penned back for large portions of last night's game at The Amex. But boy was that a big result. A huge one. On...

Post-match thoughts after a tough night, but ultimately, a very enjoyable one - www.suburbangooners.com/2026/03/05/w...

Doesn’t look like a bad point now does it…

Be plenty of other fans moaning about ou route to the Champions League final. Guys, we literally won EVERY game in the group stages. Think we've kinda done a lot of the heavy lifting to get ourselves this 'perceived' easy run. You wanted that run? Should have won all your games.

Oh yeah, it’s constant. But after a while you just expect it and enjoy the saltiness

Forest fans not confident ahead of this one, but the Premier League always throws up surprises Happy Friday folks. It's a press conference one today, which means we'll get Arteta and Dyche having their say on the evening kick-off under the lights tomorrow as we travel up to the City Ground. And...

Some early Forest thoughts ahead of tomorrow evening's game. This is by no means a cut-and-dry win for us, despite what their fans are thinking - www.suburbangooners.com/2026/01/16/f...

Kinda glad he hasn’t picked them up. It curses the next month

Not many attacking options on our bench - but with our XI so strong, you’d like to think we’ll have enough to win.

Few more thoughts from Tuesday's game - my comments on BBC Sport for the 'Fands Voice' section - talking Trossard - www.bbc.co.uk/sport/footba...

Foden doesn’t score or assist for several games at a time - but he scores in one game and all of a sudden, pundits love him.

Talent is undeniable - consistency is severely lacking.

Haaland has 13 goals, the next top City scorer has 1.

Yet our over-reliance on set-plays is worse…

Levels.

Rotation on the cards for Arsenal, but that doesn’t mean weakness So, we have ourselves a League Cup tonight and following Mikel Arteta's press conference yesterday, we've got a bit of speculation over who he's going to start that is the key topic for today, for sur...

Some pre-Brighton thoughts ahead of our League Cup encounter with Brighton - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/10/29/r...

The saltiness just makes it better.

The noise around us just having set-plays is delicious.

Boring?

We have the 2nd highest goal tally!

Anything to make you feel better I guess…

Has anyone else noticed the sharp drop in absolute clangers from goalies this season?

It might be the new PL ball, but there hasn’t been anywhere near as many game-changing errors from keepers so far.

Maybe the standard has gone up - but it’s definitely noticeable.

Things I’d like to see from this international break… With the Interlull tedium now fully enveloping us all, as I was on my morning run, I was thinking about "what are the best possible outcomes for The Arsenal for this upcoming international break/weeke...

Forgot to say Timber was outstanding again today. Continuing his form as our best player this season.

Big Bill signs on as Arsenal’s progress is clear I want to talk about Big Bill Saliba and the news that broke yesterday, but before I do that, a sad word for a young man who lost his life this week - Billy Vigar - who was once an Arsenal academy gra...

The Saliba news is big stuff for us for multiple reasons, so that had to dominate today's blog thoughts - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/09/26/b...

Remember when we got such shit for not setting up to win a game?
Where’s the same backlash for City with their 5-5-0 formation?
They deserved nothing from that game.

Does the physical midfield battle against Bilbao mean a shuffle for Arteta? It's Champions League match day two and we find ourselves up against a familiar adversary from the summer friendlies: Athletic Club in Bilbao. In the summer we saw an Arsenal side who swash buckled t...

Ethan should still have a wide role at The Arsenal Given that we play them at home at the weekend, I really hope that Forest's decision to sack Nuno Espirito Santo in the early hours of this morning have a destabilising effect on them for when they ro...

Great goal for Ethan last night. It's a reminder of why he's still valuable in a wide position if you ask me - his goal output from last season showed that - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/09/09/e...

Yep, we didn’t play well.
Yep, we gave a few too many chances away.
But we got the 3pts. Look how many times L’pool didn’t play to their best but still grabbed the points.
When you’re not playing well - you still have to find a way to grab the W.

Again!

Thinking time for Arteta (and Odegaard) these next few days Some days it's really easy to just brain dump a load of Arsenal thoughts on to the page. Today is not one of those days. I'm still kind of reeling from the defeat to PSG in the first leg, but what has...

There might be a game this weekend for Arsenal, but I think it’ll still give time for Arteta to have a think ahead of the PSG game. Ødegaard needs to as well - his form needs to pick up - www.suburbangooners.com/2025/05/01/t...

The magnitude of @arsenalwomensc.bsky.social performance against Lyon cannot be overstated.

In a Chsmpions League semi-final too. This is a display for the ages.

Berta’s most important job this summer isn’t transfer targets.

It’s getting contract extensions for Nwaneri, MLS, Saka and Saliba.

We love you Freddie, because you’ve got red hair!

Happy Birthday to our Freddie!

This is a sight!

Let’s not overlook the fact that our patched up defence earned a clean sheet against Mbappe, Rodrygo and Vinicius Jr.

Exactly what most thought they couldn’t do.

An absolute masterclass across the pitch.

Best result The Emirates has seen in its existence.
