In this episode we look back at the 4-0 win over Leeds at Elland Road on Saturday. We chat about the team selection which saw Kai Havertz start, and help bring a different kind of dynamic to the team's midfield set-up, with Declan Rice and Martin Zubimendi playing distinct roles too. We also discuss Noni Madueke, a late call-up after Bukayo Saka's warm-up injury, and his contribution with an assist and a belatedly awarded goal. In the second half Viktor Gyokeres missed a chance but also tucked one away well, there were important cameos off the bench from Martin Odegaard, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus, and a resounding win was made more impactful by the points Man City dropped yesterday. In part 2 we have questions about Mikel Merino's injury and whether or not Arsenal will move in the market before this evening's deadline, potential beneficiaries of the Spaniard's absence, Declan Rice, Ethan Nwaneri, tomorrow's night Carabao Cup semi-final, and lots more.

Rio comes in HOT after another statement victory for Manchester United, following up a win over Manchester City with victory at the Emirates Stadium against Arsenal. With a huge improvement in form and positivity around the club since sacking Ruben Amorim, the conversation quickly turns to why Michael Carrick should not be judged through the same lens as Ole Gunnar Solskjær.From Arsenal supporters' growing tension to Arteta's obsession with control, the lack of freedom for Bukayo Saka and whether this really is a “now or never” moment — this episode pulls no punches on the Gunner's race for the title.Rio compares Arteta's Arsenal to Klopp's Liverpool and Mourinho's Chelsea, arguing this isn't about tactics — it's about personality, leadership, and dressing-room energy. He then focuses on why Saka, in particular, needs reminding of the basics — discussing the need for freedom over fear.There's also a comparison to what Ruben Amorim did with the same players which contrasts with how Michael Carrick is getting them to perform - Ste and Rio come up with and investigate those differences - paying particular attention to Patrick Dorgu, Kobbie Mainoo and Diogo Dalot Hosted on Acast.

In this episode I'm joined by Andrew Allen to look back at the 3-1 win over Inter Milan on Tuesday night. In an enjoyable game, Gabriel Jesus shone with two goals and an excellent performance overall. We assess that and whether or not he's played his way into the starting line-up for Man Utd on Sunday. We also chat about the way Mikel Arteta successfully rotated his side, an impressive display from Bukayo Saka on the right hand side, the goals we scored, including a confidence booster for Viktor Gyokeres, and Arsenal's progression through European competition this season. There's also a bit about Ethan Nwaneri's potential loan move to Marseille, 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.

Suj took the spoils over James in the Planet FPL Derby and to say the mood is now toxic at Tottenham Hotspur would be putting it mildly. Yet, somehow, Thomas Frank remains in charge, for now... And so to too does Oliver Glasner despiute the Crystal Palace manager suggesting that he's been left abandoned by the hierarchy at The Eagles. At least there was some great football this weekend to enjoy... no not much of that either... but there's plenty of praise for Manchester United who fully deserved to beat neighbours City. All the games covered, plus all the key FPL discussion as usual, featuring the likes of Bruno Fernandes, Bukayo Saka, Chelsea and Man City assets, Morgan Rogers, Hugo Ekitike and more...

Nottingham Forest faced a tough task when they welcomed Arsenal to the City Ground in the evening kick-off in the Premier League but they came away with a battling point as it finished 0-0.

Matt Davies is joined by Chris Aylmer and Simon Fotheringham to discuss the game in full. #nffc #nottinghamforest

Bukayo Saka Agrees New Arsenal Contract, Marc Guehi & Tino Livramento Wanted As Transfer News Kicks Off!
More midweek matches are upon us as we near the end of the festive fixtures, but rotation and the absence of some popular players has got FPL managers looking to change up their squads
Arsenal return to the top of the Premier League after a 2–1 win over Brighton, but the performance once again raises familiar questions. The Gunners dominate large spells at the Emirates — racking up 2.8 xG, 24 shots and total territorial control — only to let the game drift into nervous territory late on, with David Raya forced into a crucial save to preserve the win.We break down a first half that should have put the game out of sight, including missed chances for Bukayo Saka and ongoing concerns around Arsenal's finishing. Martin Ødegaard scores his first goal of the season in trademark fashion, while Declan Rice adapts to an unfamiliar role and Arsenal's structure continues to generate chances without the ruthless edge to kill games.The second half sees a worrying 15-minute spell where Arsenal retreat, stop engaging high up the pitch, and invite Brighton back into the contest. We discuss Raya's intervention, the defensive adjustments that followed, and whether this “control then retreat” pattern is becoming a recurring issue.There's also frustration with refereeing decisions, including a controversial challenge on the goalkeeper and VAR inconsistencies across the weekend. We cover all the major talking points from Gameweek 17 in Whip Around the Grounds, with results from Manchester United, Manchester City, Liverpool, Chelsea, Aston Villa and more.In VARse, we analyse key officiating decisions from Old Trafford, the City Ground and Stamford Bridge, ranking what was contentious, what was ridiculous, and where the laws continue to be applied inconsistently.Finally, we look ahead to Arsenal vs Aston Villa. With Villa winning games while being outshot and outperforming their xG, and Arsenal struggling to convert dominance into comfort, we assess the tactical battle, injury concerns, likely line-ups, and what Mikel Arteta must get right this time around.Chapters:(00:00) – Arteta's Non-Negotiables Intro(01:40) – #ARSBHA Pre-Match, Injuries & the Return of Big Gabi(03:18) – Starting XI: Rice at Right Back?(04:52) – Stats, Arsenal Domination & Missed Early Chances(07:45) – Saka Shooting Volume vs End Product(12:12) – Ødegaard's First Goal of the Season(15:32) – Chances, xG and Why This Game Should've Been Dead(18:18) – Referee & Goalkeeper Challenge Controversy(21:42) – Second-Half Control & Set-Piece Pressure(24:42) – Brighton Goal: Freak Moment or Structural Issue?(27:26) – Fifteen-Minute Retreat & Loss of Engagement(28:06) – Raya's Match-Saving Intervention(30:02) – Martinelli's Impact, Late Chances & Full-Time Reflection(34:34) – Big Takeaways from the Brighton Win(38:37) – PT.2: Who Am I?

On this episode of the Cannon Stats podcast, Adam and Scott return after a Christmas break for a high-level discussion on Arsenal's recent form, dismissing finishing concerns, spotlighting key players, and previewing the massive upcoming clash with Aston Villa.

Conversations on Viktor Gyökeres' adaptation, Bukayo Saka's world-class creation and shot volume despite low-end product, the league-wide reality of "uncomfortable" wins, and optimism for a statement result against third-placed Villa to close out 2025.

Arsenal beat Brighton 2-1 in a game that should have ended 5-0 given the volume of chances created, however it was three more points to put us back on top of the Premier League.Chance creation was at it's highest all season with 3.08xG created, 57 touches in the Brighton box and 24 shots, but Arsenal need to be more ruthless in front of goal.In this video, Adam Keys looks at:- Martin Odegaard's goal and stunning performance- Bukayo Saka's phenomenal chance creation- Saka's finishing and why he needs to do more- Is Viktor Gyokeres a problem for Arsenal?- David Raya's brilliant save- The influence of Leandro Trossard- Why Arsenal's finishing can be a problem- What the chance creation says about our future results- Martinelli movement and chanceYou can follow us on Twitter here:https://x.com/adamkeys_https://x.com/arsenaltherapy#arsenalvsbrighton #martinodegaard #martinelli ##mikelarteta #madueke #martinzubimendi #zubimendi #bukayosaka #trossard #mikelarteta #arsenaltactics #martinodegaard #zubimendi #saka #declanrice

After a busy week for Ruben Amorim following Kobbie Mainoo's brother protesting about the lack of playing time and/or opportunities to move away from the club and a defeat at Aston Villa, Rio is joined by Ste and Joel to dissect those points and the title race.Rio admits Kobbie is doing himself “a disservice” if he isn't getting onto the manager asking how he can get into the team and discusses with Ste whether there is a way back for the England midfielder at Old Trafford.Morgan Rogers had two game defining “world class moments” and after one of the trio admit they don't see what the fuss is all about, Rio breaks down the goals and analyses who and what should have done better.There's some advice for (and a defence of) Leny Yoro, admission that some of the current squad “aren't good enough” to cope with the defensive demands at Manchester United and a warning for Bukayo Saka who said that Arsenal were “in control” of the title race as they spend Christmas at the top of the table.

In this episode we look back at Saturday's last gasp win over Wolves, and try to balance the importance of the three points with the level of performance Arsenal put in. If the manager and the players are unhappy, is it ok for fans to be concerned too? We chat about the slightly surprising back-four selection, especially in the context of Ben White's injury, and discuss first half moments that could easily have changed the complexion of the game. All the goals came in the second half, and we discuss Bukayo Saka's role in both, why the goal we conceded was so worrying, and how we think this might be a game which Mikel Arteta will feel he needs to react to quite strongly.

The latest episode of the talkSPORT Daily Podcast is out now, with Majestic and former Premier League manager Alan Pardew reviewing all the weekend's action. We start with Tottenham, where a bruising 3-0 defeat to Nottingham Forest saw Spurs slip to 11th, Guglielmo Vicario gifting Callum Hudson-Odoi the opener before his cross crept in for a second and Ibrahim Sangaré smashed home a stunning third. Arsenal then edged a dramatic 2-1 win over Wolves as Bukayo Saka's corner went straight in via Sam Johnstone, Tolu levelled late on, and Mosquera's stoppage-time own goal sealed it, though Ben White was forced off injured. Elsewhere, Liverpool beat Brighton 2-0 at Anfield with Hugo Ekitike scoring after 46 seconds before adding a second from Mohamed Salah's corner after replacing the injured Joe Gomez, Chelsea saw off Everton 2-0 thanks to Cole Palmer and Malo Gusto, and Fulham claimed a historic 3-2 win at Burnley as Harry Wilson starred to move the Cottagers seven points clear of the drop.

Arsenal 2-1 Wolves Match Reaction – “Unacceptable” Performance, Saka Heroics Save Gunners Despite Fan Abandonment⚽ Arsenal 2-1 Wolves! Another three points secured — but the performance leaves big questions despite a moment of brilliance from Bukayo Saka.
After Pep Guardiola played down Manchester City's chances of winning the Champions League, despite a win against Real Madrid - and whilst they sit second in the Premier League - we ask if there are still question marks about City's winning credentials this season? Will Perry is joined by Charlie Austin and City fan Nobbins - but do you agree with them? Plus, Noni Madueke scored twice as Arsenal beat Club Brugge - we discuss how close Madueke is to replacing Bukayo Saka in the Gunners' starting lineup.

Benjamin White viste sit bedste niveau frem, da han sammen med Noni Madueke og Martin Ødegaard fik chancen fra start i onsdagens kamp mod Brentford. Benny Blanco serverede et indlæg i panden på Mikel Merino til 1-0, og i defensiven lukkede han helt ned for gæsternes trusler. Det var dog ikke uden bøvl, at Arsenal kørte sejren i hus. Anden halvleg var yderst ukontrolleret, og der var først i dommerens tillægstid, at Bukayo Saka lukkede og slukkede - på oplæg af Merino. Hvordan mistede Arsenal kontrollen? Og hvordan slap de levende fra det? Det diskuterer vi i denne udsendelse, hvor vi også fokuserer på rotation, men desværre også endnu en skade, og så ser vi frem mod weekendens duel mod Aston Villa.

Tune in to hear how Saka is leading the charge for Arsenal's domestic and European glory, while carrying the hopes of England's "golden generation" toward the World Cup.

Arsenal struggled to break down a Chelsea team down to 10 men following Moises Caicedo's red card for excessive force, but ultimately still left Stamford Bridge with a goal.Mikel Merino again came up clutch for Arsenal with a big equaliser following Chalobah's goal, but we could find that winner despite chances for Merino, Timber, Martinelli and more.In this video, Adam Keys looks at:- Declan Rice touch map, pass map and tackle on Pedro Neto- Declan Rice passing to Bukayo Saka and chance for Gabriel Martinelli- Calafiori booking- Reece James' stunning performance- Mikel Merino goal and second half chance- Hincapie and Mosquera's sturggles- Moises Caicedo red card- Premier League Table- Chalobah goal and Mosquera defending- Saka vs Cucarella - Saka assist for Merino- Chelsea's central threat and Estavao chance- Why this is a good point for ArsenalYou can follow us on Twitter here:https://x.com/adamkeys_https://x.com/arsenaltherapy#chesleavsarsenal #arsenal #martinelli #jurrientimber ##mikelarteta #madueke #martinzubimendi #zubimendi #bukayosaka #trossard #mikelarteta #arsenaltactics #martinodegaard #zubimendi #saka #declanrice

In this episode we look back on the brilliant 4-1 North London derby win on Sunday afternoon. We chat about the team line-up in the absence of Gabriel and with MikelMerino up front, and yet another goal from Leandro Trossard to put us 1-0 up. Then attention turns to Eberechi Eze whose hat-trick was the major talking point of the day. There's so much 'narrative' around him, but a big player delivered in a big, and very rare, way for Arsenal in this fixture. We also enjoy the performance of players like Declan Rice, Jurrien Timber and Bukayo Saka, the overall fun you get from winning a game like this against opposition who set out to frustrate but ultimately fell way, way short. There are questions about Rice, Trossard, rotation for the Bayern Munich game on Wednesday, some Tifo chat and LOADS more good stuff as we smashed the Spuds.

In this episode we look back on the 2-2 draw with Sunderland on Saturday evening. Arsenal fell behind in a scrappy first half, but goals from Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard put us ahead before the home side grabbed a late equaliser. We discuss the goals we scored, but particularly the ones we conceded, as they have been so rare of late. For once the defending was found wanting, but could Mikel Arteta have done more with his bench, making just one very late change to try and hold onto the lead. We look at this draw in the context of where we are in the table and what the team has done recently, before answering listener questions about a title race with Man City, Eberechi Eze, which injured players we're most looking forward to having back, Ben White's lack of game time, some 666 related evil, and lots more.Vote for Arseblog in the Best Fan Media category for the FSA awards 2025: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/fsa-awards-2025Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

On this episode, Harry Symeou looks back on Sunderland 2-2 Arsenal in the Premier League. That was undoubtedly one of our toughest tests of the season. Arsenal came from behind to lead thanks to goals from Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard before conceding a late equaliser after a mix up at the back. With Man City vs Liverpool coming up on Sunday, the Gunners missed the opportunity to extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table and pile the pressure onto those two ahead of their clash.

In this episode we look back at Arsenal's 2-0 win over West Ham on Saturday. We chat about excitement at seeing Martin Odegaard and Eberechi Eze together in midfield, but that was short lived after the captain picked up an injury. His replacement, Martin Zubimendi had a big impact, and we talk about him, Riccardo Calafiori, Declan Rice scoring against his former club, Bukayo Saka scoring on his 200th Premier League appearance after he took charge when we were awarded a penalty. West Ham offered very little, and we reflect on being top of the table, before we answer listener questions about the atmosphere inside the ground for these kinds of games, Viktor Gyokeres after he made it six games without a goal in a week that looked perfect for him to add to his tally, Odegaard's recent run of injuries, media coverage of our season so far, 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.
