    The Bournemouth game was a perfect encapsulation of our season. A depleted squad, not scoring enough, playing on the margins, some good football and some awful football, dropping points from winning position, conceding from set pieces and VAR incompetence, and in general making life difficult for ourselves when we have the chance to do the opposite. But we're just going to have to put the Bournemouth game to one side for now as it really is all about PSG and getting to Munich. The OGs are back together as Tabs is joined, after a very long hiatus, by Mos to discuss the highs and lows from the Bournemouth game, Odegaard's form and, Rice's importance to the Team, our inability to score, and what happens when players minds are elsewhere and what it means for a Tope 5 finish.

    It was a good and easy win for The Arsenal over Ipswich (I suspect we've had harder training sessions) as they keep things ticking over for 2nd place and was pretty much exactly what we needed following the adrenaline rush of The Bernabéu and an eye on PSG; with the only issue being the agricultural tackling by some of The Tractor boys and their idiotic fans booing Saka for being kicked! Fortunately for us (and the FPL gurus) Saka seems to be fine.Tabs is joined by Kuziva to go over the key moments and key performances from the likes of Leo, Merino, Odegaard and Saka from the game and to debate what a "nutmeg" is.

    In Ep 56 Ian (@arsecannonpics) and Tabs bathe in the glory of Arsenal finally scoring and winning away in the Champions League. We discuss how good we were, and continue to ponder upon how good Gyokeres actually is. We also introduce our new Player Ratings section of the pod. Let us know what you think. There's also a musical treat for you at the end of the pod, if you care to make it that far. COME ON YOU GUNNERS!

    Arsenal are back and this is more like the team we know and love. In this episode Tabs is joined by Ian Jenkinson aka @ArseCannonPics to discuss the excellent win against Nottingham Forest. There's big love for soft shoe Martin Ødegaard, powerful Bukayo Saka and our very own Ethan Nwaneri, whilst we also take a look at how the fullbacks are so central to how we play. We finish off with a preview of the UCL Match Day 5 Sporting Lisbon away day, both looking forward to and dreading the site of Viktor Gyökeres; is he any good? We'll find out soon enough.
