Arsecast Extra Episode 485 - 14.08.2022
In this episode we enjoy the 4-2 win over Leicester at the Emirates on Saturday. Arsenal played some sensational football, and we discuss the impact of Gabriel Jesus and the importance and quality of his first goal for the club. There's analysis of all the goals, including the ones we conceded, the way we reacted to those concessions – especially the William Saliba own goal – as well as important contributions from Granit Xhaka, Gabriel Martinelli and Oleksandr Zinchenko, plus the feelgood factor being tied into how we're playing. We also answer listener questions about Aaron Ramsdale, Bukayo Saka, incoming transfer business, Martin Odegaard, ducks and rabbits, as well as taking some time at the top of the show to enjoy some Man Utd related schadenfreude.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 484 - 07.08.2022
In this episode we discuss the opening day win against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park, from the bright start we made which brought about Gabriel Martinelli's goal to allowing the home side back into it. We chat about why the momentum changed, the divergent discourse over Ben White's performance, and the hugely impressive debut from William Saliba. There are questions about substitutions, the way they were used and if the squad is still missing something; Patrick Vieira as a manager; refereeing this season and whether they'll let it flow more; how the centre-half position might evolve; and lots more, including a majestic Magpie-related musical finale from James.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
