In this episode we discuss the 3-1 win over Man Utd at the Emirates on Saturday. Arsenal scored first, went further ahead, but conceded quickly. It wasn't all one way traffic either, and we chat about the chances the opposition had, some of the big decisions, and some moments where we rode our luck a little bit. However, there was much to enjoy, not least the penalty miss and Granit Xhaka's first goal of the season, capping what has been a very good for the team. We then answer questions about Nuno Tavares and the ups and downs to his performance, links to Gabriel Jesus, a new deal for Mohamed Elneny, pundit reaction to the win, and lots moreGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog – this month every penny we earn from Patreon will be donated to Unicef to help children affected by conflict around the world.

Episode 665 - Last-gasp Laca

E

On this episode I'm joined by Ryan Hunn to discuss the incredible 2-1 win over Wolves on Thursday night. We chat about a poor start, resulting in exactly the kind of game scenario we didn't want, as well as some missed chances for the visitors. The conversation then turns to Arsenal overcoming the stats to produce late turnaround which feels really significant. Nicolas Pepe came on to equalise, Alexandre Lacazette's winner might officially be an own goal but he deserves credit for his impact on what was a difficult night for him otherwise. We also talk about what this victory means for a young team that's learning and growing together, the midfield options which are proving invaluable, a show of character and lots more.There's also a late, Lacazette-style cameo from James after the final music, so stay tuned.Follow Ryan @ryanhunnIf you want to become an Arseblog Member on Patreon, you can sign up at patreon.com/arseblog for just €5 per month.

In this episode James and I discuss the 2-1 win over Brentford on Saturday, a game where the scoreline definitely did not tell the full story.

We also examine our top four chances, before answering listener questions about Lacazette's role as centre-forward, whether we can get all the 'Fab Four' in the team at the same time and how, Martin Odegaard, Champions League coming too soon, and much more – including James' singing songs to his dog and a lot of journalists.And if you haven't seen it, here's the amazing work from @SebbyV21 - https://twitter.com/SebbyV21/status/1494465787733716993Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
