Just realised I've written mine not my, but that is what he does to my brain 😂

Chaotic, dynamic, effective: Riccardo Calafiori

Morning. Welcome to the Interlull. I think this is going to feel like a long one, but I guess that’s fine given our position at the top of the Premier League table. If you want a list of who is doing what, and where, over the next 10 days or so, Andrew A has you […] The post Chaotic, dynamic, effective: Riccardo Calafiori appeared first on Arseblog ... an Arsenal blog.

Nice of all the other teams to contrive to achieve Invincibles Day so early this season. Have a good week ahead, Gooners!

Liverpool had a five point lead. Now Arsenal are ahead by one in the space of two weeks.

It’s a LONG season, folks. We’d all do well not to overreact.

"I'm one of you. Here to stay. Let's do it." Yes, indeed, Wilo 🥹

That's Mikel Striker Merino to you. And the Arsenal player who has scored the most goals in this calendar year to others.

I've been saying this like a mantra since catching up on the scores.

Don't you dare fuck it up tomorrow, Arsenal

I second this, Molly!

I spent the summer reporting this essay on why it seems harder than ever to sell a book right now—especially if it isn't a debut and comes with the dreaded "sales track." I'm grateful to the writers, agents, editors, publishers & experts who spoke to me for this piece: thewalrus.ca/the-publishi...

Was never in doubt, at least to me, but big bad things have happened regardless, so am pleased to hear about Willo's new contract!

Anushree Nande @anushreenande.bsky.social · 15d

Ah fair enough! L&L and the prequel are a handful of the only cozy fantasy books that have worked for me, so I'm hopeful about this new book too. I have ARCs for the other three I mentioned, looking forward to getting into them, and hope they live up to my anticipation 😅

Anushree Nande @anushreenande.bsky.social · 15d

I'm guessing The Everlasting and Brigands and Breadknives are two of the big ones you've heard too much about? 😅 Three of my other anticipated titles are Moth Dark, The White Octopus Hotel, and I, Medusa.

Happy happy birthday, Louie!

Exactly 🥲

Seriously! Because there's definitely one, you can't convince me otherwise.

Why can't we have nice things? Nice in this scenario refers to a healthy and fit squad, not a one in one out, as @emilyoram.bsky.social put it. Every. Single. Game. This. Season. Just why though 😭

One early-season trend I'd love for us to get rid of: losing one player to injury every game 😭 #Arsenal

One of the most striking things about last night's win is the bench strength we now have. @anande.bsky.social and I were talking about how weird (in the best way) it feels to finally have that kind of depth.
