It’s a three-part blog today with an update on Andrei Arshavin, some thoughts on the 0-0 FA Cup draw with Cardiff and a sheepish yet predictable apology for going missing yesterday. I’m sure the Australians who read the blog will understand. Andrei Arshavin So it’s big, big, big news to start with: Arsenal and Zenit […]

Hello all. Just a super-duper quick one today because the FA Cup game against Cardiff is not on until Sunday and there’s very little going on. Don’t despair though, I’ll pop on some time tomorrow to do a full match preview. News for today can be summarised as follows (including a one-word response indicating my […]
Hello to you all. I realise this is a very late blog for the day, but football training and some bizarre inner-city traffic means it is after 10pm in Brisbane as I write to you. And in truth, there’s very little to write about apart from a certain Russian playmaker. The Andrei Arshavin transfer saga […]
Observe these quotes from agent Dennis Lachter about Arsenal’s move for Andrei Arshavin: “Unfortunately in this matter there is no movement. The sticking point is, of course, money and rather the totally unacceptable amount of Zenit’s demands for Andrei. The position of the club remains unchanged and that is the reality that we have faced for a long […]
Hello, hello. How are we today? It’s an action-packed Tuesday post so sit tight and enjoy. I’ll start with Arsene Wenger, who has been talking about our recent form and the struggles that our nearest challengers have had lately.

Emmanuel Adebayor’s first-half header was cancelled out by another header by Daniel Cousin on 65 minutes before Nasri and Bendtner produced late efforts to win the match. Arsene Wenger […]
F@&*! I just wrote an absolutely epic post for today covering Arsene Wenger’s thoughts on Andrei Arshavin, Manchester City and Kaka, injuries in the squad as well as the game against Hull. And now, thanks to an unfortunate click of the wrong button, it’s all gone. It’s a blogger’s worst nightmare come to life when […]
It’s good afternoon from a very sunny, very hot day in Brisbane. It’s the sort of weather that someone like Arseblogger over in Ireland would kill for even though I would desperately prefer some rain. The grass is always greener and all that. I’m going to begin today with Dennis Bergkamp. Those who have not […]
The football world has gone mad. Well, madder than usual, anyway. Today it was confirmed that Manchester City have tabled a £91 million offer for Kaka from AC Milan. It demands some attention if only because it shows that even in this difficult period of economic stability, anything is possible in the world of football. Now […]
I’m feeling a little sick today – typical given I’ve just started my holidays – so I’m going to have to race through today’s post as quickly as possible. Apologies in advance. Arsene Wenger has been talking about the prospects of a certain Danish striker in our squad. You know, the one that everyone loves. […]
