Podcast appearances and mentions of Mikel Arteta

#979 | Ed and Dan look back on  United's 1–0 win at Everton. It was functional rather than convincing but a vital three points as United close in on a return to the Champions League. There's plenty of praise for another excellent Senne Lammens performance in goal under heavy pressure from Everton's agricultural set-piece routines. When, if ever, are referees going to protect goalkeepers who are now routinely fouled? It's all Mikel Arteta's fault. Despite the victory, was this another case of United struggling to break down a low-block until Benjamin Sesko's entrance on the hour? The striker now has six goals in his past seven appearances but should he have been on from the start? United will face another team willing to sit deep at the weekend, with struggling Palace at Old Trafford. Surely time to change it up in attack. 00:00 Introduction 01:46 Senne Lammens' performance 06:23 Sesko's Goal, Squad Rotation 10:01 Set Pieces 18:06 Kobbie Mainoo and Midfield Control 23:51 Squad Depth and Youth Players 33:43 Spurs Relegation Battle 38:24 Women's Team 40:31 Crystal Palace If you are interested in supporting the show and accessing a weekly exclusive bonus episode, check out our Patreon page or subscribe on Apple Podcasts.

In this hastily scheduled half of an Arsecast Extra, James and I look back at last night's horrendous 2-2 draw with Wolves at Molineux. We discuss the team selection, and how after making a great start, Arsenal failed to capitalise on Bukayo Saka's early goal. Despite going 2-0 up, we let it slip, and we analyse the goals we conceded, the unpleasant trends regarding our goal concessions this season, and how the defensive lapses are secondary to the fact that the attack looks so inhibited at this moment in time. We also wonder if that plays a part in the way the team played with fear in the second half, what it all means for the title race, the questions about our mentality, the growing sense of now or never for Mikel Arteta and, at the heart of it, a sense of frustration because we know this is a team capable of much better than we've been seeing of late.

There's no way to sugarcoat this, Gooners: it's time to panic a bit. The Arsenal went away to the Molineaux and somehow conspired to drop points to the worst team in the league after going 2 goals up with one of the most frustratingly lethargic performances we've ever seen under Mikel Arteta. Join Gabby and Deen for a ranty and sweary flogging of every Arsenal person involved in the debacle against Wolves - if you dare.Tap in!

The hosts discuss the recent fan incident outside the Emirates and player security. The prediction table returns. The North London Derby preview takes centre stage — injuries, tactical adjustments, and whether this is the perfect reset fixture after Wolves.And of course, the Spurs-themed “Who Am I?” returns — with a suitably painful answer.It's a raw, honest episode.

Arsenal step away from Premier League pressure and into the FA Cup — and for 45 minutes, it looks effortless.In this episode of The Non-Negotiables Podcast, we break down the 4–0 win over Wigan Athletic, where four first-half goals settled the tie early and allowed Mikel Arteta to rotate heavily. We discuss the starting XI surprises, Calafiori's latest warm-up withdrawal, and the long-anticipated experiment of Bukayo Saka operating centrally.There's a deep dive into the first-half performance — Eze's influence, the combinations between Saka and Madueke, Martinelli's clinical finish, and Nørgaard's standout display. Was this simply lower-league opposition being exposed, or did we see tactical clues for the weeks ahead?We also assess the second-half slowdown, Gyökeres' introduction, and the home debuts for Salmon and Setford — moments that reflect squad depth and internal culture.From there, attention turns to the FA Cup draw. Mansfield away awaits, Manchester City travel to Newcastle, and the pathway opens slightly — but questions remain.Part two shifts into bigger concerns. We address Arsenal's mounting injury issues — recurring patterns, squad construction, recovery methods, and whether the modern game is shortening careers at the top level. Is this bad luck, load management, or something structural?Finally, we preview the trip to Wolves. With Odegaard and others doubtful, does Saka stay central? Is this the moment for a tactical pivot? And with Arsenal chasing control at the top of the table, is this simply a must-win — or a tone-setter for the run-in?All that, plus this week's “Who Am I?” featuring a 1971 double winner.Control restored — but bigger questions are building.Chapters:(00:00) - Arteta's Non-Negotiables Intro(00:51) - FA Cup Context: Rotation & Calafiori Warm-Up Injury(03:47) - Saka Central?(06:01) - Eze's First-Half Influence(09:35) - 1–0 | Madueke Finished, Eze Assist(10:51) - 2–0 | Martinelli Rifles It Home(12:30) - 3–0 | Own Goal & Saka–Madueke Link-Up(15:25) - 4–0 | Jesus Scores, Nørgaard Delivers(17:36) - Second-Half Coast & Gyökeres Chance(19:15) - Home Debuts: Salmon & Setford(22:30) - Match Stats Breakdown(23:57) - FA Cup Draw: Mansfield Away & City at Newcastle(30:39) - PT.2 Who Am I?

Mikel Arteta Laughs Off Transfer Decision, Attacking Numbers Study Reveals Major Arsenal Worry & More!Mikel Arteta laughs off a fresh transfer decision question, but a new attacking numbers study has revealed a potentially major concern for Arsenal. Are the Gunners creating enough to sustain a title challenge — or is there a deeper issue emerging?In today's episode of The Gooner Talk, Arsenal reporter Tom Canton breaks down Arteta's latest comments, the context behind the transfer stance, and what the underlying attacking data says about Arsenal's performances this season. We analyse chance creation, goal output, attacking balance, and whether this is a short-term dip or a structural worry that could impact the title race.There's also discussion on squad usage, attacking combinations, tactical patterns, and what Arsenal may need to adjust moving forward.

In this episode I'm joined by Ryan Hunn of the Stadio podcast to pore over last night's 1-1 draw with Brentford. We discuss a first half in which nothing much happened, but one which raised further questions about Eberechi Eze, and how we get more out him in an Arsenal shirt. The half-time introduction of Martin Odegaard helped, Noni Madueke put us ahead but we immediately sat back and Brentford equalised not long afterwards. We try and explain how and why that happened, as well as chatting about the final stages of the game in which we could have both won and last the game, coping with the chaos of the opposition set-pieces, hindsight substitutions, the grind of the Premier League, what Mikel Arteta will do – if anything – to try and find the attacking spark, and lots more.Follow Ryan on BlueSky here: https://bsky.app/profile/ryanhunn.bsky.socialGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Manchester City suffered another major setback in the title race after blowing a 2–0 lead against Tottenham on Sunday. With just one win in six in the Premier League, are City genuinely entering a crisis?After last week's damaging 3–2 defeat to Manchester United, Arsenal responded emphatically with a 4–0 win away at Leeds to go six points clear at the top. Mikel Arteta made a bold call by starting Kai Havertz over his captain Martin Odegaard after discourse over his form and creativity. Do Arsenal have an Odegaard problem?With nostalgia around 2016 trending, the boys rewind to the 2015–16 Premier League season, the year Leicester City shocked the football world, and ask: was this the greatest Premier League season ever?And ahead of Sunday's blockbuster Liverpool vs Manchester City, the panel builds an All-Time Liverpool & Man City Combined XI.

We discuss the impactful return of Kai Havertz with the German involved in all three goals; Viktor Gyokeres' up and down evening but one which was encouraging in certain aspects; a first half which should have brought more goals; second half changes; not winning this one by a greater margin; and some reflections on the Champions League campaign after eight wins from eight games.

In this episode we look back at the 3-2 defeat to Man Utd on Sunday, Arsenal's first home loss of the season. We try to understand how the team went from in control of the game, to 1-0 up and then lost its way in almost every way possible, on and off the ball. There's analysis of the goals we conceded, scrutiny of Mikel Arteta's quadruple change from the bench which felt more desperate than anything else, the impact of those subs, equalising through Mikel Merino before United got the winner. Has this been in the post a bit over the last few weeks due to our recent form, and why is there a difference in level between Premier League and the cup competitions? We also have questions about the atmosphere/fan reaction, magic moments (or lack of), our under-performing attack and whether it's a collective loss of form or something more structural, the need to change the dynamic of the team and ways we can do so, 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.
