Podcasts about Midfield

The January transfer window is coming, and the conditions are unusually volatile. Patrick and Ted discuss why this winter could see more movement than normal, driven by league parity, World Cup pressures, and clubs chasing narrow competitive margins. They analyze who should act and why, covering the title race, the top-four battle, and the growing risks for mid-table teams. Along the way, they examine Manchester City, Manchester United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Aston Villa, Spurs, and several clubs facing difficult strategic choices. The episode closes with a wider look at Europe and relegation planning, highlighting why January spending is less about fixing everything and more about choosing the right problems to solve.

Another Gameweek, another decent return from the growing group of midfielders who are hitting form all at the same time

The result said “win”. The conversation said something else entirely.In this episode of The Non-Negotiables Podcast, the lads use Arsenal's narrow victory over Wolves as a springboard to address deeper issues that have been building beneath the surface. Rather than focusing on the match itself, the discussion centres on selection decisions, misaligned roles, and why performances are starting to feel disconnected from standards.There's an honest, sometimes uncomfortable conversation about trust within the XI, why certain profiles aren't fitting the games they're being picked for, and how old habits — late-game retreat, lack of control, and reliance on fine margins — appear to be creeping back in.With pressure increasing at the top of the table, the episode questions whether Arsenal are managing rhythm, load, and structure effectively, and what needs to change quickly to prevent results masking performance issues.Also discussed:• Selection fit versus opposition• Midfield balance and tempo problems• Confidence, trust, and responsibility within the squad• Whip Around the Grounds and title-race context• Takahiro Tomiyasu's move to Ajax• Squad depth, injuries, and AFCON implicationsA reflective, standards-led episode focused on why this win felt wrong — and what Arsenal must correct to realign performances with expectations.Chapters:(00:00) – Arteta's Non-Negotiables Intro(01:11) – Expectations vs Reality: Wolves at Home(02:37) – Team Selection Under the Microscope(08:15) – Gyökeres Debate: Trust, Confidence & Role(23:15) – Eze, Martinelli & Misfit Roles(29:00) – Merino's Usage and Tempo Concerns(31:46) – Old Habits Creeping Back(37:44) – Match Stats(38:15) – The Positives(41:15) – Part Two: Time Off for the Squad(44:06) – January Window & Defensive Depth Worries(48:00) – Whip Around the Grounds(54:56) – Title Race Context & Rivals' Results(58:26) – Newcastle, Spurs, Relegation & Emile Smith Rowe(01:02:49) – Tomiyasu to Ajax(01:05:28) – AFCON, Asian Cup & Fixture Disruption

Taking a look at some teams that could/should change who rolls through the guts.

Dive deep into the career of Mikel Merino, the modern, all-around midfielder who has become a linchpin for both Arsenal and the Spanish National Team. From his beginnings at Osasuna and revitalizing moves to Newcastle and Real Sociedad (where he was Man of the Match in the Copa del Rey final!), to his current role as a key player under Mikel Arteta, we chart his steady ascent to the top. Discover how this complete midfielder balances technical skill with physicality, his impressive 0.4 goals-per-90 ratio, and the surprising versatility that saw him score a crucial brace as a temporary striker. We break down the statistics, his playing style, and the clutch performances—including the extra-time winner against Germany at Euro —that have made him a national hero.Mikel Merino, Arsenal FC, Real Sociedad, Spain National Team, Premier League Midfielder

She talks leadership, injuries, and how tearing her ACL tested both her identity and mental strength. Now in her senior year, Keegan's perspective is all about balance — pushing herself on the field while chasing big dreams in the classroom.

Jimmy Conrad and The Athletic's Paul Tenorio break down Mauricio Pochettino's 26-man USMNT roster for the October camp (02:32).
