Episode 857 - Noni and two Gabis

In this episode I'm joined by James Benge of CBS Sports to talk about Arsenal's 3-0 win over Club Brugge in the Champions League on Wednesday night. We discuss the impact of Noni Madueke who scored twice, and Gabriel Martinelli who chipped in with a cracking goal of his own. We also chat about the influence of Martin Zubimendi, not just last night but his growing importance to this Arsenal team, the return from injury of Gabriel Jesus and what he can bring to the side if he remains fit, the Gunners impressive European record this season, the FA Cup draw and how Mikel Arteta might view the cup competitions in this Premier League focused season, and lots more.

Arsecast Extra Episode 670 - 08.12.2025

In this episode we look back at Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Aston Villa, our first loss in 18 games. We chat about the team selection, the goal we conceded and how much that contributed to Mikel Arteta making half-time substitutions. Leandro Trossard drew us level off the bench, but when it looked like a point would do for both sides, Villa won it with the last kick of the game. We analyse the way that goal went in and what we might have done better, whether we spurned a good chance to win it ourselves late on, and reflect on how the defeat has opened up the title race with our gap at the top down to 2 points. Then we answer listener questions about rotating in midweek, Christian Norgaard, Viktor Gyokeres, Gabriel Jesus, why the reaction to the Villa game felt so intense, and lots more.

Episode 856 - Ben's back

In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to talk about the 2-0 win over Brentford on Wednesday night. We chat about the impactful return of Ben White, Mikel Merino's goal and his crazy stats in 2025, as well as his position in the team. Is he now a centre-forward more than a repurposed midfielder? There's discussion of the goals we scored, how Brentford made life difficult for us in the second half, David Raya's incredible save, as well as more injury concerns after both Cristhian Mosquera and Declan Rice had to go off. Then we spend some time chatting about the other Premier League games this week, including Chelsea being beaten by Leeds, Liverpool dropping more points at home, and lots more.

Arsecast Extra Episode 669 - 01.12.2025

In this episode we look back 1-1 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday. We begin with the team selection and the unexpected absence of William Saliba from the heart of the defence. How did that impact Arsenal, and did it mean the home side amped up what was already going to be an aggressive approach to the game? We assess the performances of both sides when it was 11 v 11, and then the horrendous challenge by Caicedo which saw him sent off which should have tilted the game firmly in our favour. It didn't quite play out like that as we fell behind before Mikel Merino's equaliser got us back level. The manager made changes, none of which really had much of an impact, and we try to analyse why the Gunners couldn't make the most of the man advantage, as well as what this point means in the title race. Then there are listener questions about London derbies, Ben White's lack of playing time, the potential changes for Wednesday's game against Brentford and lots more.
