Arsecast Extra Episode 571 - 05.03.2024
In this episode we look back at the 6-0 thrashing of Sheffield United on Monday night. We discuss Arsenal's ruthlessness and dominance in the early stages, in the context of a big tactical misstep by the opposition. Nevertheless, our performance deserves a lot of credit, the goalscoring form continues and the goal difference has been improved once again. We chat about the goals we scored and the players who impressed, why we were probably right to take our foot off the gas in the second half, and the second half substitutions which saw a couple of experienced players get what could be important minutes. Then we answer listener questions about our title credentials, the Saliba/Gabriel partnership, the midfield pecking order in light of Thomas Partey's return, 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.

Episode 772 - Port-Oh ...
In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to discuss Arsenal's 1-0 defeat to Porto in the Champions League on Wednesday evening. We chat about how different Europe and the Premier League can be, and the need for Mikel Arteta's side to learn quickly from last night's game. We analyse the performance, where and why Arsenal struggled, and how Porto negated our strengths with their, at times, extremely cynical game-plan. There's discussion of the late goal we conceded that came from a catalogue of minor errors, what we can take from this performance in order to turn things around in the second leg, and lots more.Here's the link for the Arseblog WhatsApp channel: https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VaLBHpIJJhzQXcOPvW0pFollow Phil @_philcostaGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
