Episode 758 - Relationships

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.

Arsecast Extra Episode 552 - 06.11.2023

In this episode we discuss the contentious 1-0 defeat to Newcastle on Saturday evening. Officiating and VAR are at the fore, so there's plenty of chat about the Kai Havertz challenge, the red card that should have been awarded to Bruno Guimares, and the winning goal which should not have stood. We also talk about Arsenal's performance on the day, which lacked attacking threat but which also basically negated Newcastle as an attacking force. After that we talk about Mikel Arteta's reaction, and there are questions about whether that and the club statement might have a negative impact, the way VAR has changed the way the game is covered, as well as actual football stuff including Oleksandr Zinchenko, Ben White, Bukayo Saka, signing a winger, and lots more.EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/arseblog Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Arsecast Extra Episode 551 - 30.10.2023

In this episode we enjoy the 5-0 win over Sheffield United on Saturday. We discuss the team selection which saw Mikel Arteta rotate quite a bit more than usual, and focus heavily on the excellent hat-trick scored by Eddie Nketiah. We chat about his goals, and especially the majestic third which isn't something we've seen from him before, as well as the quality of the opposition, the goals for Vieira and Tomiyasu, and some observations from inside the ground. Then we answer questions about the EFL Cup game on Wednesday, goal tallies for Eddie and Gabriel Jesus, the amount of penalties we've had this season, whether Tomi should get a new deal, and lots more.EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/arseblog Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Episode 756 - Jesus brings the magic

In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to discuss Arsenal's 2-1 win over Sevilla in the Champions League on Tuesday night. Overall it's a great result, and we focus first on the positives, which include the brilliance of Gabriel Jesus, Gabriel Martinelli's debut Champions League goal, the ever-growing influence of Declan Rice, and the resurgence of Takehiro Tomiyasu. We then discuss some things which weren't quite as good, including Martin Odegaard's dip in form, David Raya's short passing, and Eddie Nketiah's substitute performance – but it's easier to chat about those things with three very good points in our back pocket.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Arsecast Extra Episode 550 - 23.10.2023

In this episode we chat about the 2-2 draw with Chelsea on Saturday. We examine a sub-par Arsenal performance, especially in the first half, before discussing all the big incidents including the penalty that Cole Palmer shouldn't have been on the pitch to score, a half-time change by Mikel Arteta, Mudryk's fluke of a goal, substitutions that helped us, goalkeeping mistakes – the worst of which came from Robert Sanchez, but there's more to that goal than an error. Plus Saka comes to life late on, Trossard's exceptional movement, showing character versus a poor display overall, plus questions about post-Interlull Martin Odegaard, the missing piece in midfield, why we're not as fluent in attack this season, Takehiro Tomiyasu, punditry, and lots more.Please note: James is in Spain and the WiFi in his hotel was a bit dodgy so there are some audio gremlins in this one.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
