Arsecast Extra Episode 510 - 06.02.2023
In this episode we begun by chatting about the extraordinary charges leveled at Man City by the Premier League as a four year investigation becomes public. We then turn our attention to the weekend's action where Spurs beating Man City did us a favour after our defeat to Everton on Saturday. We discuss the Arsenal performance, what went wrong, and what might Mikel Arteta have done differently to change it. We also chat about the Thomas Partey sub and what that might say about his fitness, and the kind of game where we really missed Gabriel Jesus – as well as how we deal with only our second league loss of the season. Then there are listener questions about Gabriel Martinelli, Ben White and Takehiro Tomiyasu, summer transfers (😜), Oleksandr Zinchenko's temperament 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.

We chat about how a weakened Arsenal side had the best of the first half, Rob Holding's battle with Erling Haaland, half-time changes that did have an impact, conceding the only goal, and reflections on being out of the cup, avoiding a replay, and what we can take from this game into the Premier League game in a couple of weeks.

Episode 716: Arteta's door ajar
In this episode I'm joined by Kaya Kaynak of Football London to look at the building blocks of this season's momentum as Arsenal sit top of the table. We chat about what new signing Leandro Trossard is going to bring to the group, discuss Mikel Arteta's usual reluctance to talk in detail about injury but his openness to a question about Mohamed Elneny. That leads to a chat about what Arsenal want to do in the transfer market before the window closes, but how other midfield targets and the January window make it more complicatedFollow Kaya on Twitter @kaykaynak97Get 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 507 - 16.01.2023
In this episode it's a great day as we relive the 2-0 win over Spurs in the North London derby. We chat about Arsenal's control in the first half, the goals we scored, and the importance of Aaron Ramsdale's performance – not least the timing of some of his saves. There's spotlight on Martin Odegaard as his fine form continues, how different this was from the game last May and why, and the unseemly scenes at the end of the game and Spurs culpability in that regard. We also answer listener questions about transfers after Mykhaylo Mudryk signed for Chelsea, what now for Arsenal in the market? Plus questions about Oleksandr Zinchenko, pivotal results in Mikel Arteta's tenure, Gabriel's consistency and lots more.Video of Arsenal fan in Spurs end: https://twitter.com/allsparkswill/status/1614715131941756928Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
