The original Arsenal podcast - coming to you twice a week (usually Mondays and Fridays) with news, interviews, analysis, special guests, jokes and occasionally ...
In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to discuss Arsenal's 3-0 win over Monaco on Wednesday evening. We begin with the decision to start Myles Lewis-Skelly, his role in the opening goal, and assess what was a very promising performance from the 18 year old, before discussing the first half chances which should have seen the Gunners have the gamn won by the break. Then there's analysis of Monaco's second half improvement, the change that really shifted the dynamic back in our favour, the impact yet again of Bukayo Saka and lots more.Then I chat to David Squires, whose weekly Guardian cartoons have entertained us all down the years. He has a new book out, so we chat about some his process, how the madness of football provides a constant mine for his creative talents, and some of his Arsenal drawings. You can also win a copy of the new book 'Chaos in the Box: Chronicles from Modern Football' - which you can pick up now at your local independent bookstore.EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/arseblog Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!Get your Goodly Morning mug here – https://www.redbubble.com/i/mug/Goodly-Morning-Mug-2024-by-arseblog/166259371.W3OIY – and help support Oscar's Kids and Children's Hospices Across London.

Arsenal Women Arsecast 100: Leah Williamson exclusive

Leah and Tim talk through the journey women’s football, Arsenal Women and Leah have been on since then. The lessons she learned winning the title in 2019, the impact of Covid on women’s football and the post Euro 2022 explosion in interest, the big crowds, increased scrutiny and fame and how Leah has dealt with it, as well as her outreach work in Jakarta and Jordan, as well as coping with the physical demands of elite football.You can also watch the interview on our YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OUC4hdhJpLIGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Arsecast Extra Episode 615 - 09.12.2024
In this episode pore over yesterday's 1-1 draw with Fulham at Craven Cottage. We discuss team selection and how the full backs in particular might have impacted aspects of our performance, the goal we conceded, the goal we scored, the goal we had disallowed and, crucially, the goal or goals we couldn't score. We chat about a potential reliance on set-pieces versus open play, and examine the options we had from the bench which widens out into a discussion about Gabriel Jesus, Raheem Sterling, and the January transfer window. Then there are listener questions about the offside rule in its current format, Declan Rice and the 'left 8' position, why left back remains a problematic position and how we can deal with that going forward, some hashtag fun, and lots more.Get your Goodly Morning mug here, with every penny of the proceeds going to charity: https://www.redbubble.com/i/mug/Goodly-Morning-Mug-2024-by-arseblog/166259371.9Q0ADGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Arsenal Women Arsecast 99: Arsenal 4-0 Aston Villa
In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie analyse Sunday's 4-0 victory over Aston Villa. They discuss the new midfield double pivot of Cooney-Cross and Mariona and how it worked, as well as what it says about how Kim Little is being managed this season. They discuss Arsenal's dominant first half, how Arsenal lost a little control in the first 20 minutes of the second half before wresting it back, Slegers' willingness to make half-time changes and the form of Lessi Russo and Stina Blackstenius. In the second half, Tim and Jamie take listener questions on the midfield, how the January transfer market might work with an interim manager still in charge and they discuss Slegers' suitability as a permanent candidate.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Episode 810 - Corner Boys
In this episode I'm joined by Kaya Kaynak of Football London to discuss Arsenal's 2-0 win over Man Utd at the Emirates on Wednesday evening. There's a lot of chat about set-pieces after two goals from corners brought us three points, but have the Gunners and Mikel Arteta shifted the perception of scoring in this way? Why has there been such snobbery about set-pieces down the years, especially as the impact they can have is obvious? We also talk about the importance of the win in the context of the title race, an outstanding William Saliba performance, Gabriel Martinelli, Jakub Kiwior and lots more.Get 20% off Arsenal games at Cosm by using the code ARSEBLOG20 - see https://www.cosm.com/ for locations and schedules.Get your Goodly Morning mug here – https://www.redbubble.com/i/mug/Goodly-Morning-Mug-2024-by-arseblog/166259371.W3OIY – and help support Oscar's Kids and Children's Hospices Across London.
