Gabby and Mark welcome in the New Year by answering your questions.What sport should we nominate Mark for at the Winter Olympics? Will Lewis Hamilton retire? Can Scotland get past the group stage at the World Cup? And will Mikel Arteta finally win a trophy with Arsenal?
In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to look back on Tuesday evening's 4-1 win over Aston Villa. After a frustrating first half in many ways, Arsenal turned the screw to take all three points with goals from Gabriel, Martin Zubimendi, Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Jesus. We examine the key moments from both halves, and analyse the goals we scored, particularly the one with the goalkeeping error. There's also discussion of Gabriel's importance, Leandro Trossard's output, Martin Odegaard, Jesus getting back on the scoresheet after a year, handshake drama, the fun to be had with a game of this kind, a statement win from Mikel Arteta's team which ensured we go into 2026 on top of the Premier League, 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.

Retribution delivered. Statement made.Arsenal respond emphatically to Aston Villa with a dominant 4–1 win at the Emirates, reasserting control, standards, and authority after recent frustration. With Declan Rice missing, Mikel Arteta's side are forced to adapt — and ultimately overwhelm Villa through structure, pressure, and second-half execution.We break down a chaotic first half that played into Villa's running game, the key half-time reset, and how Arsenal regained control after the break. Gabriel's return to set-piece dominance, Ødegaard's midfield authority, and Zubimendi's composed finish define a ruthless spell that puts the game beyond doubt, before late sloppiness dents the scoreline.The discussion also covers Merino's second-yellow escape, left-side balance issues, Raya's late interventions, and why this performance felt inevitable after weeks of underlying dominance.Part two features the Who Am I? game, debate over the Declan Rice injury leak, Premier League prediction games including Leeds vs Manchester United, Wolves vs West Ham relegation context, and a Bournemouth preview with selection questions, injury concerns, and rotation talk ahead of a busy schedule.A response episode. A standards episode.

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?

In this episode we look back at Saturday's 2-1 win over Brighton which sent Arsenal back to the top of the Premier League. We chat about how the game made us feel, with a single goal lead feeling very precarious in the final stages, and we try and unpack the reasons why that is right now. Then we get into the game itself, the dominant first half performance, Martin Odegaard's goal and other chances to score, before we turn our attention to the second half, extending the lead, conceding a goal, and David Raya's incredible save to keep it 2-1. The first half finishes with reflections on our league position, and not being entirely convincing but still winning, and then in part two we answer listener questions about the striker situation, Gabriel's return, Mikel Arteta's substitutions, Eberechi Eze and Noni Madueke's playing time, and loads more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblo Hosted on Acast.

Rog and Rory are back to break down all of this week's Premier League action, including a wild 1-1 draw between Arsenal and Chelsea at Stamford Bridge that was more boxing match than football game. Are Chelsea the biggest threat to stop Arsenal's title charge? And is it a positive or a negative that Mikel Arteta's men walked away with a point against 10-man Chelsea? Plus, Liverpool got a much-needed victory over West Ham United...but with one of their biggest stars on the bench. Rog and Rory discuss Arne Slot's decision to drop Mo Salah, and what it could mean for both Salah and Liverpool for the remainder of the season.Watch our full interview with Sunderland manager Regis Le Bris here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HyhjABSfqSQCheck out all of our Cyber Monday deals at the Men in Blazers shop: https://shop.meninblazers.com/See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Chelsea held Arsenal at Stamford Bridge in one of the best games of the season on Sunday to prevent the Gunners extending their lead at the top of the Premier League. Moises Caicedo seen red for a lunge at Mikel Merino but Chelsea still impressed, taking the lead through Trevoh Chalobah before Merino had the last laugh, heading the equaliser to earn Mikel Arteta's men a point. Across London, things are looking negative for Thomas Frank as he wrestles with the Tottenham Hotspur faithful, after another home defeat. This time Fulham took full advantage of a slow start and a Guglielmo Vicario howler to take the points, leading to audible boos which Frank took umbrage with at full-time.

In this episode I'm joined by Andrew Allen to relive last night's fantastic 3-1 over Bayern Munich. We chat about the way the first half played out, with early domination from the visitors and how, once again, Arsenal's set-piece prowess was an important factor in changing that trajectory. We analyse the first half goal we conceded, before Mikel Arteta's side put in a sensational second half performance to go and win the game. Theres discussion of Declan Rice's performance, the way the manager prepared his team specifically for the tactical challenge of Bayern, the goals we scored in the second half and how we scored them, what this win says about Arsenal in Europe now, and how, coming after the North London derby win, it's hard not to think something special is happening this season. All that and lots more.Follow Andrew on BlueSky - https://bsky.app/profile/aallensport.arseblog.comGet a Goodly Morning mug here: https://p1r.es/GoodlyMorningMugGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
