The two Alexes, Towells (@alextowells) and Collings (@alexfrco) are joined by Jon Mackenzie (@Jon_Mackenzie) to discuss the Liverpool game, before widening their scope to look at how Arsenal have fared in big games so far this season and what we can learn from their performances, then finishing off with a quick preview of the Leeds game. We answer your questions throughout the podcast, including "What are Arsenal's weaknesses?", "What does Arteta want from his defensive midfielder?", and "Would Leeds present more of a difficulty to Arsenal this weekend if Jesse Marsch was replaced as managerial lever puller by a hippo in a hat?".
