On the show this week I look back at the midweek trip to Barcelona, with some location recordings, vox-pops and more from the European trip I got back from last night at 1am. Please excuse my voice, or lack of it, it's been a long couple of days, and a man coughed on me and gave me the plague.

London had cider, Dublin had wine, and we tried to make some sense of the performance, the result and what it means for the season in general.

I ask him how these Leicester players will be feeling, sitting top of the table; what Arsene Wenger's approach to the game will be to try and win but not fall into their counter-attacking trap; as well as what the manager will do in midfield and centre-half where he has selection decisions to make. I discuss Arsenal's summer trip to the USA, and there's all the usual space-based waffle in there too. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | |||

We recorded this week's show immediately after the 2-0 win over Bournemouth, so we discuss that, the goals from Ozil and Oxlade-Chamberlain, Flamini's ridiculous challenge, and the ticket price stories at Arsenal and Liverpool this week. Then we answer listener questions about Gabriel and Per Mertesacker, Petr Cech's continuing influence, which players would be best with their wrong foot, and we get a bit sad over the latest injury to Tomas Rosicky.

On this week's show I'm joined by Tim Stillman to talk about the 0-0 with Southampton, and the faltering title challenge. We talk about what can be done with midfield, the mounting pressure, the indifferent form of Theo Walcott, and lots more. There's some Amaury Bischoff PI and all the usual waffle too, as election fever mounts. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | |||
| Arsecast Extra Episode 104 - 01.02.2016 | 01 Feb 2016 | 01:04:24 | |
On this week's show James, who thankfully was not eaten by a bear, and I, look back on the 2-1 FA Cup win over Burnley, returns for Francis Coquelin and Alexis Sanchez, and a debut from new boy Mohamed Elneny. We also discuss Alex Iwobi's shins, our favourite John Terry moments, transfer deadline day and what might happen, and there are some spoilers for Oscar nominated movie The Revenant – bringing us back around to the bear-theme that permeates this show. Also, James tries not to eat a baby by mistaking it for delicious baked goods. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | |||

| Arsecast Extra Episode 103 - 25.01.2016 | 25 Jan 2016 | 00:58:48 | |
On this week's show we discuss the disappointing, frustrating 1-0 defeat to Chelsea. On the agenda, the red card issued to Per Mertesacker; could we have done more to prevent that situation developing; the decision to take off Olivier Giroud; and what it all means for our title hopes. As well as that we answer listener questions about Theo Walcott and the Captain's Armband (probably the title of his new book), Mohamed Elneny and why we haven't see him yet, what team we should pick for the FA Cup this weekend, and lots more.

| Episode 758 - Relationships | 09 Nov 2023 | 01:01:45 | |
In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to look back at our 2-0 win over Sevilla in the Champions League. It was a night for the wide men as both Bukayo Saka (goal + assist) and Gabriel Martinelli (assist + torture of Juanlu) were the difference makers. We talk about Saka's relationship with Leandro Trossard, William Saliba, Jorginho, Declan Rice, the overall performance, and how well Arsenal controlled and won the game despite how many players we had sidelined through injury. There's also a bit of time to look at some other CL results this week, not least Man Utd losing a game.

On this week's Arsecast I'm joined by Rory Smith from The Times to discuss the consistency and reliability of Nacho Monreal, and what his new contract might mean for Kieran Gibbs. We also discuss Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, 10 years of Theo Walcott, and we look ahead to Sunday's Premier League clash with Chelsea. There's some TV fixture scheduling stuff, pants based trauma and all the usual waffle. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. | |||
| Arsecast Extra Episode 102 - 18.01.2016 | 18 Jan 2016 | 01:04:01 | |
On this week's show we look back on the 0-0 draw with Stoke, the performances, and the display of Petr Cech who helped secure a point. There's the Aaron Ramsey chanting, Mesut Ozil's absence, and more on our midfield, before we answer listener's questions about taking quick free kicks, the baldness of referees, which players might be the best arm-wrestlers, as well as a seriously intense sauce based discussion which brings some AMAZING REVELATIONS.
