It’s that time again: there’s an international break looming.

It feels like it’s only been five minutes since we last had an interlull. However, at least those matches during the second week of October were World Cup qualifiers. These new ones coming up from 10 November are only friendlies! (mostly)

Therefore, stay tuned for Cannon Towers to get even more grumpy.

Chances are the matches will be dull as no one will actually care about the result, and at least one Arsenal player’s leg will probably fall off. That’s out of the Gunners who actually get called up these days.

On the plus side, we’re due to welcome Shkodran Mustafi and Danny Welbeck back from injury after it’s over. So there’s that to look forward to.

If you feel the same and you like the international break about as much as the next person, which isn’t a great deal, here are 10 ways to keep yourself entertained.

Decide you like crap football

You could actually watch the games. England, for example, play Germany on 10 November and Brazil on 14.

Hey, we should be used to crap football since we have to watch Arsenal. Am I right? Boom boom!

Christmas shopping

Who cares if you’re a month early – it’s good to be prepared. Beat the rush. Maybe buy an Arsenal all-in-one if you know any children. No really.

See your friends

If you have friends, go out and see them instead.

It’s actually quite odd going out on an evening there’s football on.

Oddly liberating.

Treat yourself

Take some time out to have a bit of a pamper session.

That doesn’t necessarily mean you have to go out and get a massage but it’s always good for the brain to take some time out just for you.

Watch Stranger Things 2

The second season of Stranger Things has just come out and it’s awesome.

Game the time away

Football Manager 2018 is released on November 10. Perfect timing.

Why not?

Go on a date

Whether it’s with someone new, someone you know, someone who’s already a partner or just yourself, go out and enjoy the big, wild world.

Have some nice food, see a good movie, go for a nice autumnal walk.

Have fun.

Go see ’89’

A movie that tells the story of Arsenal’s magnificent 2-0 win over Liverpool at Anfield to win the league title in 1989 is out soon with screenings on 12 November.

This speaks for itself really doesn’t it?
