Arseblog Arsecast, The Arsenal Podcast

This week's Arsecast is kind of a landmark one. Episode 400 comes almost 10 years to the day since the very first Arsecast, so there's a bit of a look back with some moments from the last 10 years, a bit of reflection on how much has happened since then, and to talk about the football I welcome back to the very first Arsecast guest, Goodplaya, for a bit of a chat about all that. This Arsecast is absolutely full to the brim with waffle, usual and unusual. There's also a nice little competition in there for you too, and one day fantasy football with FanDuel. Hosted on Acast.

In this week's Interlull episode James reveals the murky underside to riding camels, Trip Advisor reviews and elaborate scams in the Dromedary world in Morocco. Then we go over all the week's exciting news from an Arsenal point of view, touch on Sam Allardyce's sacking and more before we take listener questions about Robert Pires as Sporting Director, new contracts for Ozil and Alexis, Tony Adams on his 50th, and a strange curse for Jose Mourinho. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this week's episode we join James on his holidays in Morocco to discuss the very late 1-0 win over Burnley yesterday. We discuss the winning goal, the performance, team selection, and the absence of Lucas Perez. Was it injury or was he just not selected? Then we answer listener's questions about Shkodran Mustafi, Alex Iwobi, the rise in form of Theo Walcott, playing against packed defences, and lots more. Hosted on Acast.

In this week's Arsecast I find it difficult not to laugh at Diego Costa, because who doesn't want to laugh at Diego Costa? I'm also joined by Rory Smith to discuss this latest iteration of Theo Walcott and how, perhaps, some clarity as to where he plays is helping him perform. We also discuss the fluid front four, and Arsene Wenger as he comes up on 20 years as manager of Arsenal. We touch on his legacy at the club and in English football, and there's all the usual waffle too - as well as 1-day Fantasy Football with FanDuel. Hosted on Acast.

This special episode was recorded live in the Barleycorn bar in New York, thanks to Arsenal NYC. James and I relive some fun times in the big city, enjoy the 3-0 win over Chelsea, laugh at Diego Costa, and then answer lots of questions from the audience while people feed us shots of whiskey. Good times. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week's Arsecast is a day early for reasons which will become apparent when you listen. I look back on what might be a unique week for Arsenal in terms of results and team selections, there's EFL Cup chat, and I'm joined by Philippe Auclair to discuss the shape of the squad, new boys Xhaka and Lucas' midweek exploits, we try and figure out what's going on with Olivier Giroud, look ahead to Chelsea and lots more. There's some of the usual waffle, and some nonsense and a bit of guff. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this week's show we enjoy a night-time recording and take some joy in the pain of Jose Mourinho before trying to figure out why Harry Kane is sucking his thumb. We look back on the 4-1 win over Hull, the team selection, and that first Arsenal goal from Granit Xhaka. There are listener questions about the best debut goals for the club, Xhaka's place on the bench, what kind of team we might pick for tomorrow night's EFL Cup and lots more. Hosted on Acast.

Time now for this week's Arsecast and I'm joined by Paolo Bandini to look back at the PSG game, Arsene Wenger's team selections, Alexis Sanchez up front, David Ospina in goal, and our somewhat erratic defensive play. We also discuss Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, tactical set-ups and lots more. There's some debunking of spurious records, lots of the usual waffle, we look ahead to the Hull and Nottingham Forest games, and we hear from an old friend right at the end. There's also one-day Fantasy Football with Fanduel in which you can win real cash. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this week's show we look back at the late 2-1 win over Southampton, the collective performance and those of new signings Lucas Perez and Shkodran Mustafi. We discuss Santi Cazorla's penalty technique, refereeing decisions, and leaving Shane Long injured on the ground, before we answer questions about our Champions League opener against PSG tomorrow night, the pace of our play, on Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain's inability to take his chances, and more including ROBOT FRIDGES before James invents a new word. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Time now for this week's Arsecast and I'm joined by Amy Lawrence and Stuart MacFarlane to talk about their brand new book 'The Wenger revolution: Twenty Years of Arsenal which chronicles the 20 years of Arsene Wenger's reign through amazing pictures from Stuart, words from Amy, and Wenger himself who chats about the various photos. We also discuss the new arrivals, the transfer window business and the decision of Jack Wilshere to push for a loan move away from the club. I'm still sick so there's probably a bit less of the usual waffle than normal.There's also one-day Fantasy Football with Fanduel in which you can win real cash.
