Episode 665 - Last-gasp Laca
On this episode I'm joined by Ryan Hunn to discuss the incredible 2-1 win over Wolves on Thursday night. We chat about a poor start, resulting in exactly the kind of game scenario we didn't want, as well as some missed chances for the visitors. The conversation then turns to Arsenal overcoming the stats to produce late turnaround which feels really significant. Nicolas Pepe came on to equalise, Alexandre Lacazette's winner might officially be an own goal but he deserves credit for his impact on what was a difficult night for him otherwise. We also talk about what this victory means for a young team that's learning and growing together, the midfield options which are proving invaluable, a show of character and lots more.There's also a late, Lacazette-style cameo from James after the final music, so stay tuned.Follow Ryan @ryanhunnIf you want to become an Arseblog Member on Patreon, you can sign up at patreon.com/arseblog for just €5 per month.

Arsecast Extra Episode 459 - 21.02.2022
In this episode James and I discuss the 2-1 win over Brentford on Saturday, a game where the scoreline definitely did not tell the full story. We chat about Arsenal's control and dominance, some contentious decisions from the officials, but ultimately the winning contributions from Emile Smith Rowe and Bukayo Saka. We also examine our top four chances, before answering listener questions about Lacazette's role as centre-forward, whether we can get all the 'Fab Four' in the team at the same time and how, Martin Odegaard, Champions League coming too soon, and much more – including James' singing songs to his dog and a lot of journalists.And if you haven't seen it, here's the amazing work from @SebbyV21 - https://twitter.com/SebbyV21/status/1494465787733716993Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
