Arsenal 2 - 0 Olympiacos…

Arsenal 2 - 0 Olympiacos

Arsenal make it two wins last night from two in the #UCL!


Gabriel Martinelli (@gabimartinelli) was at it again after starring vs Athletic Club, he scored the opener against Olympiacos, reacting quickest to a rebound after Viktor Gyökeres’ shot came off the post.


Mikel Arteta (@mikelarteta) rotated heavily, but his squad depth showed its value. Despite pressure from Podence & Chiquinho, Arsenal’s defence stood firm.


Bukayo Saka (@bukayosaka87), rested for much of the night, came off the bench to seal the win in stoppage time.


A perfect start for @Arsenal in the league phase - we gooners (and Arteta) were delighted.


Onwards and upwards, my friends 🔴⚪️

Preserves: Quinces, Sloes, Apples, and Pears…

So Stuart and I have been busy today; turning fruits of our early autumnal foraging into sloe gin, apple sauce, pear sauce, and lots and lots of yummy quince jelly. 😋

When I’m 64…

When I was a 6 year old I first heard this song. I never thought this day would come. But here we are. 😆

Port Vale 0 - 2 Arsenal…

Made the trip up to Stoke last night to watch the mighty Arsenal play in the 3rd round of the Carabao Cup. 


First Arsenal goal for Eberechi Eze saw our £60m summer signing scored inside 8 minutes against Port Vale in the Carabao Cup. He nearly had a second before the break but was denied by Joe Gauci.


Vale, newly promoted to League One, made it tough and almost equalised through Devante Cole late on.


Leandro Trossard struck late to seal a 2-0 win and set up a fourth-round tie vs Brighton.
