In this episode I'm joined by Tom Canton to chat about the Interlull goings-on. We begin on a positive note after former Gunner Kieran Tierney had a moment to remember for Scotland, before we delve into the Gabriel injury and the subsequent reporting around how predicted absence. How much can you 'blame' the player, and how do managers find the balance when someone says they can play. We chat about what we'll miss with him at the heart of our defence, as well as the options to replace him, Eberechi Eze's role in midfield, whether Gabriel Jesus can have an impact this season after his long injury absence looks set to end, a loan move mooted for Ethan Nwaneri in January, the upcoming schedule, and LOTS more.

In this episode we chat about the international football, including a great day for Ireland, and how Eberechi Eze's brilliant goal for England didn't get the recognition it deserved. Then, in the wake of the Gabriel injury news, we discuss how players view international football in a way that can often be distinct from some fans, as well as exploring the options Mikel Arteta has to replace the Brazilian if he's sidelined for the upcoming games. Then there are listener questions about our disciplinary record, how fitness news is reported (or not), the rescheduling of the Everton game, and lots more, including another Interlull round of the player ratings game.

In this episode we look back on the 2-2 draw with Sunderland on Saturday evening. Arsenal fell behind in a scrappy first half, but goals from Bukayo Saka and Leandro Trossard put us ahead before the home side grabbed a late equaliser. We discuss the goals we scored, but particularly the ones we conceded, as they have been so rare of late. For once the defending was found wanting, but could Mikel Arteta have done more with his bench, making just one very late change to try and hold onto the lead. We look at this draw in the context of where we are in the table and what the team has done recently, before answering listener questions about a title race with Man City, Eberechi Eze, which injured players we're most looking forward to having back, Ben White's lack of game time, some 666 related evil, and lots more.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie rake over the bones of the contentious 1-1 draw with Chelsea on Saturday and consider where it leaves Arsenal's season. There is talk about how Arsenal looked to replace Kim Little, Chelsea springing a slight surprise by starting with a back four, a poor opening 15 minutes before a second half redemption arc and there is conversation over the extraordinary decision to disallow Stina Blackstenius' goal, as well as some close offside calls and a potential red card for Victoria Pelova. In the second half, Tim and Jamie take listener questions from BlueSky and from the Arseblog discord.

In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to discuss Arsenal's 3-0 Champions League win over Slavia Prague. We chat about the changes to the starting XI, a difficult start for the Gunners before getting on top, a European handball to give us a penalty in the first half, and the enigma that is Mikel Merino finding the back of the net twice. We also talk about an interesting tactical decision from Mikel Arteta, keeping yet another clean sheet to equal an incredibly long-standing club record, Max Dowman becoming the youngest ever Champions League player, and lots more – including the winners of last week's book competition.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie discuss Sunday's 4-1 win at Leicester and consider how much of a step forward the performance and result are. There is discussion of Stina Blackstenius' five star display and how Arsenal exploited space around the sides of Leicester's back three, the performance of Taylor Hinds at right-back and use of Russo as more of a second striker than a 10. In the second half, Tim and Jamie take your questions and look ahead to Saturday's must win game at home to Chelsea.
