Arsecast Extra Episode 462 - 14.03.2022
In this episode James and I enjoy the 2-0 win over Leicester at the Emirates on Sunday. We discuss the sublime performance from Martin Odegaard, as well as the midfield dominance of Thomas Partey, aided and abetted by another solid team performance and that rarest of things – an Arsenal penalty. We chat about the kind of football we're playing, the progress we're making, and the fun elements to our football, as well as the ability to control games from good positions. Then there are listener questions about set-pieces, protecting Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Martinelli's attacking instincts, Ben White impressing but making people laugh, 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.

Arsecast Extra Episode 461 - 07.03.2022
In this episode James and I chat about the very important 3-2 win over Watford yesterday. We start by acknowledging some of the things that weren't great, as laid out by Mikel Arteta in his post-game press conference, but focus more on what was good about the game – not least the three brilliant goals scored by Martin Odegaard, Bukayo Saka, and Gabriel Martinelli which put us into the top four. We discuss our recent form and league position in a good weekend of results for us, before answering questions about Kieran Tierney, the left-hand side not being quite as effective as the right from an attacking perspective, finding that perfect centre-forward, the all red shorts, and lots more.Thanks to Mark Hallesy for the image.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
