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.

In this episode we look back at the 0-0 draw with Nottingham Forest on Saturday. We start by reckoning with the fact we've extended our lead at the top, despite a sense of frustration that permeated after a goalless draw. Then we move onto the match itself, and the key incidents including big chances missed by Gabriel Martinelli and Viktor Gyokeres, with some focus on the striker, what he's not bringing to the team right now, and what that requires of Mikel Arteta. There were second half changes, a slightly contentious penalty incident, but the game played out in disappointing fashion as we struggled to create. In part 2 there are questions about our attacking potency based on some stats, Declan Rice's 'outburst' at the end, how we view draws, Martin Odegaard, reconfiguring midfield from time to time, and loads more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

On this edition of The Dugout, Jacob is joined by journalist Sam Dean to react to a chaotic but crucial 3-2 win over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

The Gyökeres Dilemma: Has “Big Vic” turned a corner with his goal and assist, or was it just a product of Chelsea's high line? We analyze his best performance in months. Transfer Whispers: The validity of links to Anthony Gordon and Marc Guéhi, plus the difficult conversations the club might need to have about selling fan favorites like Gabriel Martinelli or Kai Havertz to balance the books.

In this episode of The Arsenal Opinion, Pete and Jacob break down a frantic but entertaining victory over Portsmouth. They discuss why the chaotic nature of cup games is often more enjoyable than the tactical rigidity of top tier Premier League fixtures and praise the fresh energy brought by the rotated squad. The conversation takes a brief detour to La Liga to analyze the exit of Xabi Alonso from Real Madrid. The hosts debate whether player power has gone too far and if modern superstars like Mbappe and Vinicius Jr are becoming unmanageable for even the world's best coaches. Back in North London, the focus shifts to individual performances with some contrasting takes. Jacob argues that Ethan Nwaneri looked like a seasoned midfielder against Portsmouth and makes the case for him to keep his place for the upcoming Chelsea clash. Pete dives into the worrying data surrounding Viktor Gyökeres and questions if the club missed a massive marginal gain by not signing a striker who better fits the system. The boys also share their relief at the return of Kai Havertz and discuss how his presence instantly balances the attack. Additional topics include the struggles of summer signings Eberechi Eze and Noni Madueke to find consistent output, the specific chemistry between Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli, and a full preview of the lineup dilemmas facing Mikel Arteta for the League Cup semi final.

Gabriel Martinelli's early goal helped Arsenal maintain their perfect start to the Champions League as they overcame Olympiacos. Love it!
Gabriel Martinelli equalised in the 93rd minute to rescue a point for Arsenal, but should it have been more? Did Arteta's cautious lineup against Man City cost Arsenal a vital win in the title race? With Liverpool now 5 points clear, is the Premier League slipping away?For the first time in over 600 games, Pep Guardiola went full-on park-the-bus against Arsenal. He subbed Nathan Ake on for Foden, Haaland off for Nico Gonzalez and switched to a back five. What does this new approach say about Man City's future under Pep?Chelsea lost again this time 2–1 at Old Trafford. That's now back-to-back defeats after also losing to Bayern Munich in the Champions League. Will Chelsea's wider strategy derail their season?Last week, Jamie Carragher said Harry Kane is England's greatest ever striker. At the same time, Erling Haaland broke another Champions League record by becoming the fastest to reach 50 goals in just 49 games. And don't forget Liverpool spent £130 million on Alexander Isak to help fire them to the title. So today on The Club, we're asking: who is the best striker in the world right now?Rory, Adam and Buvey are in the studio to discuss all this and more in the latest episode of the Club.

In this episode we look back on today's 1-0 defeat to Liverpool at Anfield. We discuss the starting line-up with Mikel Merino chosen in the absence of Martin Odegaard – was Mikel Arteta too cautious, or does the late winner impact how we think about how this game actually played out? We chat about our lack of attacking threat, but that was also true of Liverpool, and what the manager could have done differently, or at least sooner. There's discussion of Gabriel Martinelli, Noni Madueke and Viktor Gyokeres, the brilliant goal we conceded and where blame lies on that, before we answer listener questions about yet more injury woes after William Saliba went off with a sprained ankle sustained in the warm-up, whether Max Dowman should have come on ahead of Ethan Nwaneri, our corner taking, what remains of the transfer window, 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.

In this episode we look back on what was an exciting weekend for Arsenal fans. The signing and presentation of Eberechi Eze almost overshadowed what was a very impressive win for Mikel Arteta's side – so we chat first about the arrival of the former Crystal Palace and how it has made us all feel (answer: very good and hahaha at you know who). Then we discuss the 5-0 win over Leeds, two goals for Jurrien Timber and two very important ones for Viktor Gyokeres, the debut of 15 year old Max Dowman and his impact from the bench, and other snippets from what was a great first home game of the season. Part 2 begins with transfer news as we're linked with another left-back, before we answer questions about the future of Gabriel Martinelli, whether Gabriel Jesus can play a role this season as he nears a comeback, left-footed Hale End graduates, our ongoing injury issues, a possible front 3 at Anfield, 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.

In this episode I'm joined by Kaya Kaynak to chat primarily about Arsenal's upcoming transfer business. We discuss the obvious need up front, and the potential timing of any new signing in that position, but also about the need to bring something different to the left side of the attack. There's analysis of what we get currently from Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli, as well as which would be the obvious candidate to make way for a new player, as well as thoughts on midfield and defensive additions, Ethan Nwaneri's role next season, the big jump for Max Dowman, and lots more.Download the new Android app here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.milkbarstudios.arseblogGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

In this episode we look back at Sunday's 2-2 draw with Liverpool. Arsenal had a bad first half, conceding two very sloppy goals, but turned things around with a much improved second half performance. We chat about the key incidents, tactical changes at the break, the goals we scored, receiving yet another red card, almost winning it at the end, Liverpool fans booing their own player, and Mikel Arteta's post-match comments which verged on furious despite the fact we took what was a very important point. Then we answer listener questions about Ethan Nwaneri's lack of recent playing time, Gabriel Martinelli up front, what influence Andrea Berta will have this summer, spending on a back-up goalkeeper, 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.

In this episode I'm joined by Tom Canton of Football London to discuss Arsenal's 1-0 defeat to PSG in the Champions League semi-final first leg last night. We discuss the way the visitors dominated the opening stages – were they very good or were the Gunners bad? We analyse the goal we conceded, and some of their other chances, before we look at the opportunities Mikel Arteta's side had to score through Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard. We also had a goal disallowed, but were probably fortunate in the end that PSG didn't score again. There's also some chat about the fans/atmosphere, and how the tie is poised going into the second leg in Paris next week.Find Tom on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheGoonerTalkTVIn April we'll be donating 100% of our Patreon revenue to four great charities, including the Arsenal Foundation, as well as supporting our friends at ArsenalVision Podcast as they launch their annual fundraiser - https://justgiving.com/page/avp2025Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

In this episode I'm joined by Andrew Allen to discuss the 2-1 win over Fulham on Tuesday evening. We start with the good stuff, in particular the goalscoring return for Bukayo Saka, and a really bright performance from Gabriel Martinelli. Then we discuss the injuries to Gabriel and Jurrien Timber, as well as pre-game news about Ben White, and where that leaves us going into the Real Madrid games. What are the options available to Mikel Arteta, who tried to put a brave face on things after the game? And why are we sustaining so many injuries?There's also some detail of our April charity drive: we'll be donating 100% of our Patreon revenue to good causes, including the Arsenal Foundation, as well as supporting our friends at ArsenalVision Podcast as they launch their annual fundraiser - https://justgiving.com/page/avp2025Follow Andrew on BlueSky - https://bsky.app/profile/aallensport.arseblog.comGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
