Troy Deeney has apologised to his family in advance that he will take Watford’s relegation out on them at home by smashing objects and throwing some stuff around and this is NOT OK!

Eight years after turning down Arsenal to join Spurs because he didn’t want to fight to get in the Arsenal side, Jan Vertonghen has left Spurs with no trophies.

We are a month and a week into the FA WSL  transfer window and, with a month-and-a-half to go before it closes, we have a clear idea where the teams are going this summer.

Arsenal spent 38 days in the Top Four of the Premier League this season, but that’s almost twice as many as Manchester United who are probably going to finish there while we wallow in mid-table mediocrity.

If you wanted to measure whether subs help or hinder a side, it will take a lot more than just looking at the naked numbers.

Pep Guardiola has said he is planning to use City’s semi-final at Wembley against Arsenal to gauge how ready his side are to play Real Madrid in the Champions League.

Pep Guardiola has decided to come out swinging after Manchester City were cleared on a technicality of being massive financial cheats, pity he didn’t bother to check his facts first when taking aim at Arsenal and Arsene Wenger.

As expected, Manchester City have had their two-year European football ban overturned meaning they can now play in the Champions League next season and Arsenal definitely can’t.

Tottenham fans may not be in the ground this weekend when Arsenal roll up to their £1bn toilet bowl, but they’re planning a ‘Levy out’ banner to fly over anyway because they think they were nearly as good as Liverpool.

When it comes to season tickets, we always hear about how Arsenal’s is the most expensive in the Premier League (it isn’t as it gives more games than the others) but Spurs look set to ensure they take all the season ticket headlines with their latest move.

Jordan Henderson will miss the Premier League champions game against Arsenal midweek after picking up a ligament injury that rules him out of the rest of the season and puts the start of next season in doubt.

Clubs and the Premier League will meet this week to discuss the start of next season with the 19/20 campaign still underway.

Arsenal have a fine tradition of bringing young players through their academy.

Arsenal have seen numerous wins over the past few decades, and with their current coach Mikel Arteta, the Gunners seem destined for more glory in the upcoming seasons.

The Africa Cup of Nations will take place in January 2022, a year after the original tournament dates, which will have a knock-on effect for Arsenal.
