In this episode it's nothing personal as we enjoy a 1-0 win away at Chelsea, and although we've won there before in recent seasons, this was something different. We chat about the quality of Arsenal's performance from start to finish, and how the technical level of this team is key to what we're doing right now. There's discussion of Gabriel Jesus and his performance versus another striker's; other individuals who stood out; rendering Chelsea ineffective; and some props for Mikel Arteta's role in the improvement of the team and the club as a whole. We also answer questions about Aubameyang's pre-game video, Granit Xhaka's increased contribution, the manager and his technical area, Ben White and lots more.We also announce the official Arsecast Extra Goodly Morning mug is on sale, with all proceeds going to charity.

In this episode I'm joined by Charles Watts to talk about the 1-0 win over FC Zurich in the Europa League. We chat about a game that was more nervy than it probably should have been, but which ultimately saw Arsenal top the group and avoid a problematic play-off round. There's discussion of Eddie Nketiah and Albert Sambi Lokonga, assessing their contributions during the group stage, plus Kieran Tierney sends Mikel Arteta a reminder, complicated contracts, the January window and more.Follow Charles @charles_wattsGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

In this episode we enjoy the 5-0 win over Nottingham Forest on Sunday and discuss a fast start, some half-time worries, a fantastic second period and a huge contribution from Reiss Nelson who got two goals and an assist after he replaced Bukayo Saka. We talk about this being the reset Mikel Arteta was looking for, Saka's treatment by opponents and officials, and then a superb second half from the team and Nelson in particular. We round out by assessing our position at the top of the table after a hectic October before we answer listener questions about Gabriel Jesus and some visible frustration as his goal 'drought' continues, Kieran Tierney, title-race odds, whether Nelson's goals change the January transfer window needs, Tony Adams dancing and lots more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

In this episode I'm joined by Philippe Auclair to discuss the 2-0 defeat to PSV in the Europa League on Thursday night. We chat about the poor performance from an Arsenal perspective, a scoreline that could have been worse, and try to find some explanation for why the Gunners were so poor on the night. There's also discussion of the January transfer window, the impact of the upcoming World Cup, and some thoughts on the tournament in general as FIFA's stranglehold on the game continues. Philippe also touches on a special edition produced by Josimar Football, and a table football game against a very well-known opponent.Follow Philippe @philippeauclairRead the Josimar Football editorial here: http://josimarfootball.com/editorial-josimar-international-edition/See the Socceroos statement here: https://twitter.com/thepfa/status/1585360307102552064Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

In this episode we look back on the 1-1 draw with Southampton, on a day of some frustration. Arsenal didn't make the most of their chances to win the game, but nor did we get the rub of the green when it came the officiating – with some glaring errors by the referee. We chat about that balance, but also about how heightened expectations this season make a draw away from home feel quite so bad. There's discussion of second half sloppiness and whether it was down to fatigue, as well as questions about Gabriel Jesus and his goalscoring so far this season, whether we need a 'Plan B', Fabio Vieira, more Ben White media fun, and lots more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

In this episode I'm joined by Clive Palmer to chat about the 1-0 win over PSV in the Europa League on Thursday night. We discuss attacking efficiency, Granit Xhaka's nimble winner, Bukayo Saka's stand-out performance, as well as some analysis of Fabio Vieira and Albert Sambi Lokonga. We then react to Mikel Arteta's very interesting comments about top players being able to play every 3 days, how his mindset on this matter is very different to our as fans, and more.Follow Clive @clivepafcGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

In this episode I'm joined by Andrew Allen who fills in for James who's away on holiday, and we have an extraordinary 1-0 win at Elland Road to discuss. Starting with the referee/comms delay and the suspension of the game just 60 seconds in, then to an even first half, a sensational Bukayo Saka goal to put us in front, followed by a second half full of incident and which was a exercise in endurance for Arsenal fans. Patrick Bamford had a goal disallowed and then missed a penalty as Leeds dominated the half, we couldn't get a hold on the game at all, but dug deep to hang on and take all three points, plus there was more late drama as a red card and a penalty awarded to Leeds were both overturned. Then we answer listener questions about Gabriel, who was at the centre of that late incident, rotation for the Europa League, whether grinding out a win is good, Tomiyasu, and lots more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

In this episode I'm joined by James to discuss the 1-0 win over Bodo/Glimt in the Europa League. We chat about the goal we scored, the poor performance from Arsenal and how much the pitch might have played a part in that, some good chances for the home side, and how potentially interesting aspects of last night's line-up didn't really develop in the game. We also talk about Kieran Tierney, Matt Turner's performance, Gabriel Martinelli's contract, and more.We also announce the winner of the Club Golf competition - https://clubgolf.uk - and you can get 10% off any purchase from them by using the code ARSEBLOG10 at checkout.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

In this episode we relive the 3-2 win over Liverpool at the Emirates yesterday, discussing the team selection and Takehiro Tomiyasu at left-back; a blistering Arsenal start and an early goal from Gabriel Martinelli; Liverpool with more control in the first half but Bukayo Saka putting us in front before the break; a better second period from us even if Firmino scored, and lots of focus on our reaction to that, the bravery to go for the win, what that says about this team and cracking the aura of difficult opposition. We also chat about how much fun the team and the stadium is right now, as well as answering questions about further tests this season, the Gabriel Jesus incident involving Tsimikas and whether he should have continued, the Aubameyang video and his comments about Mikel Arteta, Ben White's post-game interviews, contract renewals for Saliba, Saka and Martinelli, and LOTS more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
