#54: January Transfers, Unusual 8s & Getting Hooked - Q&A

Towells & Seb are joined by a returning Alex for a classic international break filler episode - a Q&A.

Thank you to everyone who took to Twitter to ask us questions!

Timestamps:

00:00-05:46: Intro

05:46-17:39: Would it be beneficial for us to sell Partey in January? Who according to you are the best 8 options available in January?

17:39-23:20: What would the best use of the January transfer window be? And do you think we need to be active in the January window to achieve our goals this season?

23:20-25:02: Sell Reiss and buy a winger or sell Eddie and buy a CF?

25:02-30:39: Should we be targeting a left 8 & moving Havertz into the 9 rotation? Would you try Zinchenko/Trossard left 8? We haven't really seen either, why not?

30:39-39:35: How do you feel about Marti9elli? What do you see as his best role in the future?

39:35-52:06: How will team dynamic look with Odegaard being reintroduced into the squad? Will Havertz be forced to shift back L8?

52:06-55:46: Do you feel like this OOP approach could give us an even more solid basis to build from for the future?

55:46-58:34: Do you think we’ll see a change in the balance between our attack and defense in the second half of the season, or are we going to play like now till the end of the season?

58:34-1:01:30: What defines success for arsenal this year?

1:01:30-1:06:55: Are Arsenal better or worse than last season?

1:06:55-1:10:13: You have to replace one member of Arsenal's men's squad's hands with hooks. Who becomes hook boy and why?

1:10:13-1:11:39: What's the best AWFC pod out there?

1:11:39-end: outro
