Arseblog Arsecast, The Arsenal Podcast

In this episode we look back on the dramatic 4-3 win over Luton at Kenilworth Road on Tuesday evening. There is focus on the late, great winner from Declan Rice, but also discussion of how we found ourselves needing to find that goal in the first place. David Raya is in the spotlight again after he was found wanting for two goals and we chat about this team's ability to keep going right until the death to find a way to salvage points that looked like they might be lost. And how does this reflect on Arsenal's title aspirations?! There are inevitable questions about the keepers, but is there a bigger one to be asked? Plus questions about injuries at the back and squad depth there, the need for that 25 goal a season striker, the captaincy, Arteta's use of subs in this game, 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 we look back on the 2-1 win over Wolves, a scoreline that doesn't really reflect the way the game went, but one which we sort of inflicted upon ourselves. We chat about the bright start, goals from Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard setting us on our way, but how we didn't have quite the same attacking efficiency as the midweek game against Lens. There's discussion of the yin and yang of Oleksandr Zinchenko, opportunities to score more goals, plus questions about a return to form for the captain and his influence on our attack, how this season is different by design, Arsenal picking up fewer yellow cards, a left-field (8) question about Gabriel Jesus 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 Phil Costa to recap Arsenal's 6-0 win over Lens in the Champions League on Wednesday evening. We discuss a blistering first half, beginning with Kai Havertz opening the scoring and ending with Martin Odegaard's brilliant fifth. There's chat about the goals inbetween, the brilliance of Bukayo Saka, Takehiro Tomiyasu's contribution, and lots more – plus the substitutions Mikel Arteta made, and why he chose the ones he did. We also reflect on the group stage securing top spot, our Champions League ambitions, as well as having a bit of a laugh at a couple of the other English clubs. Follow Phil @_philcostaGet 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 1-0 win over Brentford on Saturday. We discuss Arsenal's control versus cutting edge, the perception of our attack this season, the team selection and Brentford's approach, Aaron Ramsdale's horror moment and Declan Rice's incredible recovery. We obviously chat about the late winner scored by Kai Havertz, what it means for him (at last), and what it meant to take three points and go top of the table. We then have listener questions about the way Mikel Arteta deal with post-game questions about Ramsdale, Leandro Trossard in the left 8 position, reporters trying (badly) to get Thomas Frank to criticise Arsenal's celebrations, the offside rule, 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 Phil Costa to look back at our 2-0 win over Sevilla in the Champions League. It was a night for the wide men as both Bukayo Saka (goal + assist) and Gabriel Martinelli (assist + torture of Juanlu) were the difference makers. We talk about Saka's relationship with Leandro Trossard, William Saliba, Jorginho, Declan Rice, the overall performance, and how well Arsenal controlled and won the game despite how many players we had sidelined through injury. There's also a bit of time to look at some other CL results this week, not least Man Utd losing a game.Vote for Arseblog in the FSA Awards 2023: https://www.surveymonkey.co.uk/r/fsa-awards-2023Follow Phil @_philcostaGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
