In this episode, we discuss the ongoing Arsenal involvement in the 2022 World Cup, with mixed fortunes for some of our players. Granit Xhaka is through, Thomas Partey is out, and Gabriel Jesus is injured, which is a bit of a worry. We chat about the games, the players involved, and some of the surprise results of the tournament, before answering questions about Luis Suarez and his lake of tears, Xhaka's 'dark arts', best World Cup memories, Eddie Nketiah, leading us to a point where reminiscing about being punched in the side of the head proves wistful.Don't forget, the Arsecast Extra Goodly Morning mug is on sale, with all proceeds going to charity.

With the World Cup ongoing, I chat to Miles Coleman, the writer and producer of FIFA Uncovered – a four part documentary series available now on Netflix.

We also discuss some of the key figures, including Joao Havelange and the man who followed him, Sepp Blatter; the culture inside FIFA and how football decisions are made; whether anything can or will change; and lots more.Follow Miles @milescoleman92Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

This landmark episode of the podcast is beset by technical difficulties – how typical! – but we muddle through to mark the occasion of episode 500. We talk a bit about the World Cup and the Arsenal players involved, before we take lots of listener questions who ask questions about questions, memories of the 500 episodes published to do, some football stuff re: the January window and a couple of key players, before we engage in more very serious stuff about nonsense, including some brand new magpie facts – complete with a new jingle.Here's the episode where James interviews Andrew: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mm0eDzEAnpQHere's the Tim Sherwood FA Cup final bit: https://soundcloud.com/arseblog/what-did-tim-sherwood-say-to-his-players-after-the-fa-cup-finalDon't forget, the Arsecast Extra Goodly Morning mug is on sale, with all proceeds going to charity.

In this episode I'm joined first by Andrew Allen to chat a bit about the 3-1 defeat to Brighton in the Carabao Cup. We discuss fringe players failing to make an impact, but with so much rotation, is that realistic?
