Arseblog Arsecast, The Arsenal Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

In this episode we look back at the 1-1 draw with Brighton on Saturday, chatting first about how the game was going with Kai Havertz's excellent goal putting us in front, before we turn to the big incident: the Declan Rice red card. We discuss the referee's decision, and the consequences for the player and the team – which aren't limited to just this game. Then we talk about Arsenal's response, the goal we conceded, and the chances we had to take all three points. After the break there are questions about the transfer window, the arrival of Raheem Sterling and the window as a whole, Rice's role in this team which is now complicated by the Mikel Merino injury, a left-hand choice between Martinelli, Trossard and Sterling, and lots more.

In this episode I'm joined by The Man from East Lower and Andrew Allen to discuss the final few hours of the transfer window. We chat about the goalkeeping position in light of Aaron Ramsdale's expected departure, how we might replace him, and what it might cost. Then there's discussion of midfield with two out and two in, before attention turns to the attacking end of the pitch. We chat about whether we think Arsenal need to bring somebody in, whether we expect that to happen before Friday's 11pm deadline, and lots more.

In this episode I'm joined by Lewis Ambrose to chat about last night's 4-1 friendly win over Bayer Leverkusen. We analyse the very familiar looking team line-up in the context of Mikel Arteta's comments about needing more from the players we have, leading to discussion of Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz among others. There's also some focus on young players like Myles Lewis-Skelly and Ethan Nwaneri after they impress again, but how do you find the balance between their integration and further additions to the squad? There's some transfer discussion, Arteta's pickpocketing high jinx, and a goodbye from an old (angry) friend.

In this episode I'm joined first by Philippe Auclair to discuss the Premier League clubs voting against a motion to ban loans between associated clubs. We chat about those who voted against,

their motivations, what it might mean going forward, plus the wider implications of the multi-club model and how it can be used and exploited for good and bad.

Then I chat with Tim Stillman about a piece he wrote for Arseblog News, examining the reasons behind the lack of diversity within the Arsenal Women squad, as well as some Gabriel Jesus after his 90 minutes for Brazil during the week.
