"COSTA BRAVA CHAMPIONS" - YOU'LL NEVER SING THAT!!! Episode 195 reviews Arsenal's first proper outing of the summer a comfortable, confident 4–1 win over Girona that officially kicks off pre‑season and the march toward club football world domination. Tabs is joined by Ian (@arsecannonpics) to break down the match, the Hale End takeover, the transfer noise and what's coming next.The pair dig into:Girona Review A strong starting XI mixed non‑World Cup players with early returners, and it was great to see Ben White back after his injury scare. Timber's continued absence remains a worry, but this game offered important minutes for players who will be covering early‑season gaps.Highlights & Lowlights Dowman stole the show with an assist and a goal. Tzolis looked lively and confident on the left. Meslier made sharp saves (despite Perry Groves calling him “Kepa” all night). Hale End kids impressed across the board.Lowlights: Nelson and Vieira still floating around the fringes.Match Breakdown Havertz opened the scoring after a brilliant Dowman turn and pass. Tzolis added a second with a deflected finish. Girona pulled one back from a corner before Dowman made it 3–1 with a composed strike. Jesus capitalised on Ben White's tackle to make it 4–1. The game fizzled into fitness‑mode once the conveyor belt of subs arrived.Transfers Bruno Guimarães — Deal close: £70m + add‑ons. Medical reportedly imminent. He brings passion, energy, leadership, and title hunger. Newcastle look like they're imploding — manager gone, best players sold, Tindall out. Could be a very funny season up there.Vinícius Júnior — Madrid's final offer is on the table. Vini reportedly interested in Arsenal's proposal. Now it's down to who blinks first. Dreaming is allowed.Nørgaard — Off to Everton for £7m. Under‑used but a great character. 101 Premier League minutes → Premier League champion. Wish him well.MLS Rumours — Manchester United “enquired”. Arsenal politely told them to absolutely do one.Costa Brava Cup: one trophy down, five to go. More pre‑season action coming after the Como match.

Arsenal's Champions League final ended in the cruellest way possible.After a dramatic night in Budapest, Mikel Arteta's side fell to Paris Saint-Germain on penalties following a 1-1 draw across 120 minutes. Kai Havertz gave Arsenal the perfect start, PSG responded from the spot, and what followed was a tactical battle between Europe's most dangerous attack and one of the continent's strongest defensive units.In this Match Review episode, Elliott, Justin and JJ break down the final in full. They discuss Arsenal's game plan, Havertz's early goal, Gabriel's outstanding defensive performance, the key moments that shaped the contest and whether Arsenal showed too much respect to the reigning European champions.The panel also examine the major refereeing decisions, including the penalty awarded to PSG, Arsenal's late appeal involving Noni Madueke and the wider frustration surrounding the officiating on the night.There is a detailed discussion on Arteta's substitutions, the impact of Viktor Gyökeres, Gabriel Martinelli, Noni Madueke, Martin Zubimendi and Eberechi Eze, as well as Arsenal's approach during extra time as the game drifted towards penalties.The shootout itself is analysed, including Arsenal's misses, David Raya's role and the emotions of seeing European glory slip away after such a long and impressive campaign.Away from the final, the conversation shifts to the following day's Premier League champions parade. The hosts reflect on the scenes across North London, the reported 1.5 million supporters in attendance, Ben White's antics, Josh Kroenke's celebrations and what the day meant after the disappointment of Budapest.The episode closes with a broader reflection on Arsenal's 2025/26 season, the progress made under Arteta, the lessons learned from reaching a Champions League final and why the squad believe this journey is far from finished.Premier League Champions.

This was supposed to be a match review.Instead, it became something else.Arsenal closed the Premier League season with victory away at Crystal Palace — but the football quickly gave way to reflection, celebration and everything that came with finally seeing the trophy lifted after a twenty-two-year wait. Elliot and Justin react to the final day atmosphere, the guard of honour at Selhurst Park, the celebrations in North London and the emotions of finally watching this Arsenal side complete the journey. There's discussion on the trophy presentation, the symbolism of seeing ownership hand over the title, Martin Ødegaard's moment as captain and the scenes shared across the Arsenal fanbase worldwide. On the pitch, there is still a game to review.The lads work through Mikel Arteta's heavily rotated starting XI, discuss Martin Zubimendi's surprise role at right back, look at Max Dowman's involvement and reflect on Gabriel Jesus marking the day with a goal in what could prove to be one of his final Premier League starts for Arsenal. The performance itself is unpacked through the lens of freedom, rotation and whether anything meaningful can actually be learned from football played after the title is already secured. There's also reflection on the moments behind the moments — player leadership, the conversations that helped carry the squad through difficult periods, the significance of lifting the trophy after years of near misses, and what this achievement means for the club's future rather than simply its past. And finally, one image, one quote and one feeling.Standing there together.Standing in our dreams.Chapters:(00:00) - Arteta's Non-Negotiables & Intro(00:18) - Match Review Setup & Champions Reflection(00:58) - Guard of Honour & Final Day Atmosphere(03:07) - Trophy Lift Emotions & Watching Arsenal Become Champions(06:15) - Kroenkes Deliver the Trophy & Symbolism Discussion(07:58) - Arteta's Entrance & Trophy Presentation(09:33) - Ødegaard Lifts the Trophy & Celebration Moments(10:41) - Favourite Celebration Scenes & “We Are Unbearable”(12:18) - Starting XI Reaction & Rotation Discussion(13:14) - Max Dowman Impressions & Christian Nørgaard Start(13:58) - Martin Zubimendi at Right Back Debate(15:53) - Midfield Selection & PSG Thoughts(18:50) - Gabriel Jesus Goal, Captaincy & Future Discussion(22:07) - Arsenal's Freedom, Match Context & Performance Reflection(23:47) - Palace Push Back & Closing Match Moments(25:42) - Match Stats & Control Analysis(28:30) - Post-Match Scenes Around North London(30:30) - Global Arsenal Celebrations & Fan Connection(32:29) - Mikel Arteta's Trophy Lift Reflections(34:02) - Josh Kroenke, Belief & What Comes Next(38:51) - Martin Ødegaard's Journey to the Title(41:10) - Declan Rice, Player Meetings & Leadership Voices(44:36) - Bukayo Saka, Perspective & “Standing In Our Dreams”(47:35) - PSG Question & Looking Towards the Final(49:22) - Outro & Champions Sign Off
