Arsecast Extra Episode 519 - 03.04.2023
In this episode I'm joined by Ryan Hunn as James takes some time to celebrate a new arrival, and we discuss the 4-1 win over Leeds on Saturday. There's praise for Aaron Ramsdale for some first half saves, before Gabriel Jesus got going again, scoring twice – his first from the spot, before a beautiful second which included an excellent contribution from Leandro Trossard who gets some flowers of his own. We also chat about Ben White's goal, the one we conceded, Granit Xhaka doing an Olivier Giroud question, and responding to Man City's win over Liverpool. Then there are listener questions about points/games permutations, who might start up top away at Anfield, the possible penalty on Trossard in the second half, and lots more. I also chat to Elliot from the ArsenalVision Podcast as we join forces to raise funds throughout April for the Arsenal Foundation.

Arsenal Women Arsecast Episode 61: Arsenal smile while Bayern Munich Frauen
In this impromptu episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim goes solo! Tim goes over a magical night at Emirates Stadium in which the Gunners qualified for their first Champions League semi-final in 10 years with a 2-0 win over Bayern Munich. Tim talks about the impact of that Conti Cup Final win over Chelsea earlier in the month, why a trophy and a UWCL semi-final were such big priorities this season, as well as a bit of a tactical ramble on how Arsenal were able to overcome Bayern, with some of Jonas Eidevall's pre and post-match musings thrown in for good measure.You can follow Tim on Twitter @StillmanatorGet 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 517 - 20.03.2023
In this episode we look back at the 4-1 win over Crystal Palace on Sunday, which put us 8 points clear at the top of the table. We discuss team selection, not least Rob Holding starting his first Premier League game of the season, and how he acquitted himself. We continue to marvel at the contributions of Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli as they got three of our four goals, there's the goal we conceded, some Ben White fun, scoring the fourth, and sealing the points to put pressure on our title rivals. Then there are questions about how we might deal with the right back issue, changes at board level, the coaching staff and in particular some of the younger members, and loads more, including that Antonio Conte press conference.Here's the Conte piece I mention in the pod: https://arseblog.com/2021/11/no-man-is-powerful-enough-to-thwart-nature/Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Episode 722 - Paying the penalty
In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to discuss Arsenal's Europa League exit at the hands of Sporting CP. We chat about the team selection, going ahead in the first half, but also the impact of picking up two injuries and having to make two changes in that period. There's discussion of the second half, not winning our duels, midfield being a bit lightweight, and the goal that Sporting scored – before we do extra-time and penalties, Martinelli missing and Ramsdale not making a save. Looking for silver linings regarding our Premier League title challenge rounds out the episode.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.
