Balancing Defense and Attack in Arsenal's Strategy

In this episode look back the 1-0 win over Ipswich on Friday evening. We chat about the starting line-up in the absence of Bukayo Saka, the goal we scored through Kai Havertz, and how in a massively dominant first half we didn't create a lot of chances to score. That then leads to a wider discussion about how this is a developing trend for Arsenal, and whether or not the manager's outlook on the game is a factor. Does he sacrifice attacking threat for defensive stability? We also talk about the second half, the fine margins, and three important points, before we answer listener questions – starting with Saka's injury and what the club need to do in the January window (including some potential candidates for a transfer). There's also stuff on Myles Lewis-Skelly, using subs in the hectic period, Martin Odegaard's form and lots more.
