Arseblog Arsecast, The Arsenal Podcast

On this week's show we discuss the disappointing, frustrating 1-0 defeat to Chelsea. On the agenda, the red card issued to Per Mertesacker; could we have done more to prevent that situation developing; the decision to take off Olivier Giroud; and what it all means for our title hopes. As well as that we answer listener questions about Theo Walcott and the Captain's Armband (probably the title of his new book), Mohamed Elneny and why we haven't see him yet, what team we should pick for the FA Cup this weekend, and lots more.

On this week's Arsecast I'm joined by Rory Smith from The Times to discuss the consistency and reliability of Nacho Monreal, and what his new contract might mean for Kieran Gibbs. We also discuss Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, 10 years of Theo Walcott, and we look ahead to Sunday's Premier League clash with Chelsea. There's some TV fixture scheduling stuff, pants based trauma and all the usual waffle. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this week's show we look back on the 0-0 draw with Stoke, the performances, and the display of Petr Cech who helped secure a point. There's the Aaron Ramsey chanting, Mesut Ozil's absence, and more on our midfield, before we answer listener's questions about taking quick free kicks, the baldness of referees, which players might be the best arm-wrestlers, as well as a seriously intense sauce based discussion which brings some AMAZING REVELATIONS.

Joining me on this week's show, to look back on the 3-3 draw with Liverpool, is Amy Lawrence. We chat about the game, some individual performances, the midfield dysfunction, Joel Campbell's emergence and Olivier Giroud's striking. There's a look ahead to the game against Stoke on Sunday, some Aaron Ramsey death base guff and all the usual waffle. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

This week's show starts on a sad note as we touch on the passing of the legendary David Bowie, before we move onto discussion of the 3-1 win over Sunderland in the FA Cup. We touch on Alex Iwobi, Joel Campbell, Olivier Giroud, Aaron Ramsey and others, before we take listener questions in the second half of the show about Benik Afobe, Arsene Wenger and Manuel Pellegrini, David Ospina's future, robot camel jockeys and much, much more.

On today's show, following up on the opening show of the season, I'm joined again by Ken Early from Second Captains. Ken popped into the studio this week to look at the season so far, what's happened since we last talked, the various managerial goings-on, the title race, and how it's gone for Arsenal up until now. I also reveal my two New Year resolutions and there's some of the usual waffle in there too. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this week's show we look back the 1-0 win over Newcastle and discuss the performance, the three points when playing badly, Laurent Koscielny's goal, as well as the return of Serge Gnabry from his West Brom loan, perhaps to make room for Mathieu Debuchy's departure. We then answer listener questions about the transfer window, Arsene Wenger's sartorial choice, Aaron Ramsey's late miss against Newcastle, Ganbry's potential inclusion in the squad, some transfers that didn't go our way, and more.

On this week's show we look back at the last two games: the 4-0 defeat to Southampton and the 2-0 win over Bournemouth. We discuss the good, the bad and the different class that is Mesut Ozil, Calum Chambers midfield outing and the potential signing of Mohamed Elneny. We then answer listener questions, many of which are about Ozil; there's some Mathieu Debuchy gossip; we wax lyrical about our favourite signing from a Premier League club; and uncover the hidden meaning of Ozil's goal celebration hand signal. It's all in there. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

On this week's show festive edition of the show we look at the rather enjoyable 2-1 win over Man City last night, what it means for our title ambitions, the performances of Theo Walcott, Joel Campbell and Mesut Ozil, and all the other associated guff from the match. We then answer listeners questions about Laurent Koscielny, Petr Cech's headgear, injury problems and close the show with a number that should probably have us locked up for crimes against music, but if you can't forgive us terrible singing at Christmas when can you?

On this week's show I provide my own theory as to Mourinho's sacking – and in typical Mourinho style he made a bollix of this too. I had recorded earlier in the day with Jim Campbell from The Football Ramble, and we'd had a good natter about the not-so-special one and his ongoing strife at Chelsea. Then he gets canned and renders all that glorious audio redundant. Still, we chat Leicester, Man City, Aaron Ramsey, Mesut Ozil, transfers and much more. We're also at home with Abramovic; there's a chance for you to win goodies from Savile Rogue; some Christmas present recommendations; and all the usual waffle too Hosted on Acast.
