In this Interlull episode we begin by talking about a couple of goalscoring Gooners, before the conversation switches to the inevitable: the Newcastle takeover. We chat about what it might mean for Arsenal, the wider implications for the competitiveness of the Premier League, the 'morality' of it, the requirement for cognitive dissonance, and the reaction of fans to this kind of deal and ownership.

Arsecast Extra Episode 436 - 04.10.2021

In this episode we look back at the 0-0 draw with Brighton on Saturday, in which too many of our key players didn't perform at the level required. We talk about the result in isolation, and in the context of the last four games, some positives at the back with Gabriel, Ben White and Aaron Ramsdale, Emile Smith Rowe as our best player, and at least keeping a clean sheet and taking a point after an anti-climactic performance. Then there are listener questions about the key area we need to see improvement in, Nicolas Pepe, Kieran Tierney, Arsene Wenger's backing for a World Cup every two years, 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 435 - 27.09.2021

James is is back from his holidays on what is a very goodly morning following the 3-1 win in the North London derby. There's a flavour of the atmosphere inside the Emirates, the energy that transmitted around the ground, a brilliant first half performance with some outstanding individual contributions, a huge win for Mikel Arteta, a goal and an assist each for Smith Rowe and Saka, and pretty much everyone gets a mention for the way we put the old enemy to the sword. We then answer listener questions about Aaron Ramsdale, Tomiyasu, a revitalised Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, the potential for a winning run, the summer recruitment paying dividends, and lots more, including a brand new jingle to celebrate the derby win.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Episode 646 - Arsenal not found

Only those inside the Emirates on Wednesday night got to see Arsenal's 3-0 win over AFC Wimbledon in full, because there was no live TV coverage anywhere. The Athletic's Art de Roche was one of them, and he joins me to talk about the game, the team selection, Thomas Partey playing a part, Eddie Nketiah, Flo Balogun and young players.Then, with the North London derby on the horizon, I chat with Phil Costa about the slight bit of momentum Arsenal have built in the last couple of weeks, Mikel Arteta's more exciting – or at least interesting – line-ups, the connection between the team and the fans as a positive ahead of the Sp*rs game, Aaron Ramsdale and more.Follow Art @artderoche : Follow Phil @_philcostaIf 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 434 - 20.09.2021

James is away on holidays so for this episode I'm joined by Tayo Popoola ... who is also on holidays, to discuss our hard-fought 1-0 win over Burnley on Saturday. We talk about the defensive commitment the team showed, stand-out players like Aaron Ramsdale and Gabriel, dealing with the physical aspect of the game, some promising signs despite the fact the team didn't really click from an attacking perspective, and a moment of real quality from Martin Odegaard to score the only goal of the game. We then answer listener questions about the return of Granit Xhaka, Bukayo Saka's recent form, whether new signings have demonstrated greater character, Ben White ... sorry ... £50 Ben White to give him his full title, and lots more, including Martin Keown's big butt theory and the old skippidydip.Here's the Sean Dyche image mention during the show.Visit Arsebiz to support fellow Gooners.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Episode 645 - Refereeing fluidity

On this week's show I'm joined by Rory Smith of the New York Times to talk about the new edict to referees from on high for them to 'let it flow'. Is this going to lead to a rise in injuries as players push the boundaries, realising they may not get the kind of punishment they did before. We talk about the underlying culture of physicality in English football, how this is not a new thing – something Arsenal fans know only too well – and the way that refereeing and officiating appears to have a make it up as you go along element to it. We also chat about the proposal to make the World Cup biennial.After that it's some quick Arsenal chat with Andrew Allen as we face a non-European season, and how we have to make that 'advantage' count, particularly for games like the weekend trip to Burnley.Follow Rory @rorysmith : Follow Andrew @aallensportIf you want to become an Arseblog Member on Patreon, you can sign up at patreon.com/arseblog for just €5 per month.
