Daryl talks to SB Nation staff writer Zito Madu about all things Arsenal. Unai Emery's style of play is yet to emerge as anything identifiable at the Emirates, but the signings of Pepe and Ceballos give reason for optimism. Ozil's role is still TBD, but how that unfolds will be important either way. Meanwhile, youngsters like Reiss Nelson and Joe Willock will have a role to play. Starting 43:45, we also talk about Major League Soccer's attempts to be apolitical, and why that approach is destined to fail. Two stories by Zito: Alejandro Bedoya showed why MLS can never be a nonpolitical space: https://www.sbnation.com/2019/8/7/20758742/alejandro-bedoya-mls-gun-violence-goal-celebration Black History Month: Accepting responsibility to inspire future generations: https://www.mlssoccer.com/post/2018/02/27/black-history-month-accepting-responsibility-inspire-future-generations Today's show is sponsored by Ruffneck Scarves.
