Better a bit late than never, I'm joined by Phil Costa to re-live the 5-1 win over Sporting in the Champions League on Tuesday evening. We reflect on a dominant first half performance, with collective and individual brilliance putting us into a commanding half-time lead thanks to goals from Gabriel Martinelli, Kai Havertz and Gabriel. The home side got one back, and their fans started whistling for a bit, but Arsenal responded with two more to ensure the win was as emphatic as it deserved to be. We chat about Martin Odegaard, Bukayo Saka, Jurrien Timber, as well as the strength and impact from the bench, what this win says about the team and how it's perceived in Europe, and loads more.

In this episode I'm joined by Miguel Delaney to chat about his new book: 'States of play – How sportwashing took over football'. We discuss what sportswashing actually means, and how in this book we come to understand it's a very broad term to quickly describe how football, money and politics have become inextricably linked. We chat about the impact it has had on competitiveness in the game, why Roman Abramovich's arrival at Chelsea in 2003 opened a Pandora's Box, the Premier League's culpability, how FIFA and UEFA have failed to safeguard the game and instead jumped on the gravy train, and lots more. You can also win one of two copies of the book.

In this Interlull episode we catch up with the latest injury news, as Leandro Trossard seemingly picks up a knock while away with Belgium, and we round up the other Arsenal player involvement during the break. We take listener questions from all of social media throughout, discussing Kieran Tierney, Robin van Persie, whether or not Arsenal can expand the capacity of the Emirates, and how many points we'll accrue when the football resumes. There's also a helping of the player ratings game, quite a bit on trampolines, details of the all new Goodly Morning mugs, and lots more.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast Tim and Jamie gleefully pick over the bones of Arsenal's 3-0 win at Spurs on Saturday and they talk about some of the things interim manager Renee Slegers has tweaked, tactically and in terms of soft factors. There is analysis of the game and some of the key performances. In the second half, Tim and Jamie answer listener questions on whether Slegers should keep the job full-time, how far is the transformation down to tactics and how far is it down to a change in energy and Tim and Jamie think about some of the challenges that might lay ahead. Then there are questions on Frida Maanum's form and which of the current squad has the potential to be the best in the world in their position.

In this episode I'm joined first by Clive Palmer for an Arsenal Interlull round-up, starting with news of Ben White's injury/surgery, and how that has clearly been an issue for him for some time. We chat about player performance while carrying injuries, wonder if Gabriel Jesus can ever rekindle anything even close to his best form, and discuss the big off the pitch story of the week involving referee David Coote.
Then I chat to Arsenal fan and author Jon Spurling about his new book: 'Go to war - football on the brink in the 80s'. We talk about football was informed by society at the time, and some of the most difficult moments the game in England has ever endured, as well as some of the great characters and positive stories, including a final chapter than revolves around Anfield 89.

In this episode we look back at Sunday's 1-1 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. We chat about the return of Martin Odegaard and his influence on the team, going ahead and letting the lead slip again, tight offside decisions and missed chances, how to view a point away from home in the context of the game, and well the season so far. We also discuss the analysis of the team and the way it has played this campaign, with lots of issues to deal with but also plenty of room for improvement. Then there are listener questions about the future of Gabriel Jesus, whether Odegaard should play for Norway during the Interlull, the amount of goals we're conceding, the January window, and lots more.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie dissect the 5-0 win over Brighton at Emirates Stadium on Friday evening. Tim and Jamie consider how far this was a vintage Arsenal performance and a bad Brighton one, whether trademark goals from Mead, Foord, Maanum and Hurtig suggest that Arsenal are back in the swing of things attacking wise and they consider Renee Slegers' willingness to make early substitutions. In the second half, they take listener questions on the new manager search, the decision to switch the Bayern Munich UWCL game away from the Emirates, the future of the midfield and a team featuring players who were largely signed several years ago.

In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to look back at our 1-0 defeat to Inter Milan in the Champions League. Another loss is frustrating, but were there signs of improvement from the Arsenal attack last night? We analyse that, taking into context the quality of the opposition, while acknowledging things aren't exactly fluent at this moment in time. We wonder how Mikel Arteta might change the dynamic, and chat about some of the key moments in the game, from second half chances to two penalty decisions in the first half that went a long way to deciding the result. There's also discussion of Mikel Merino, Ethan Nwaneri, Raheem Sterling, and lots more.

On this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie discuss the frustrating 1-1 draw with Manchester United. Tim and Jamie comb over the performance, the encouraging display of Alessia Russo but the irritation at again seeing Arsenal struggle to convert dominance into goals and ask whether there are any green shoots here. They also discuss Arsenal's lack of aerial prowess in defence and whether it can be fixed by any other means than the transfer market. As ever, in part 2 Tim and Jamie take listener questions on the attacking issues, whether the Russo / Stina split works, the relationship between the attackers, the lack of goal celebrations and the new manager search.

In this episode we look back at Saturday's disappointing 1-0 defeat away at Newcastle. We discuss the team selection, the lack of any kind of attacking threat after we went behind, and try to understand why collectively and individually we had such a bad day. Has all the juice been squeezed from the lemon? And where does this leave the team with more difficult away games this week? We also take listener questions about the reported departure of Edu from his role as Sporting Director, whether the team needs more pace, and lots more

In this episode I talk to Arsenal legend Martin Keown on the publication of his book 'On the edge'. We chat about his Irish background, his strength of character at 19 to stand up to George Graham over a financial issue and to move away from the club he loved, and his time at Aston Villa and Everton. We also discuss the brutal world of professional football back then, his return to Arsenal and his relationship with the famous 'back four', how Arsene Wenger got more out of him than any other manager, and lots more. You can also win one of two signed copies of the book.
'On the Edge' is published by Penguin – and is available from your local independent bookstore!

In this episode I'm joined by Harry Symeou from The Chronicles of a Gooner to discuss Arsenal's 3-0 win over Preston in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night. We chat about the strength of the team selection, a long overdue goal for Gabriel Jesus, and of course another exciting display from Ethan Nwaneri which he capped with an incredible goal. We touch on reasons why Mikel Arteta might still be cautious about overplaying the 17 year old, as well as the performance of others such as Raheem Sterling and Jakub Kiwior, before we talk about how winning this competition might not be top of anyone's priority list but would still be important and beneficial for the club and the fans.

In this episode we look back at Sunday's 2-2 draw against Liverpool. We chat about the impact on Bukayo Saka on his return to the team, with an outstanding goal, and Arsenal's response to the Liverpool equaliser. Mikel Merino gave us a deserved lead at the break, but in the second half the performance levels dropped a bit so we analyse the reasons for that, key of which was the loss of Gabriel, as well as finishing the game with a very makeshift back-four. We also discuss the second Liverpool goal, some of the officiating decisions, and how to view the result in the context of the season so far. Then there are questions about what kind of team to pick for the Carabao Cup, media narratives, the framing of Mikel Arteta's style as a manager, and lots more.

In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to talk about Arsenal's 1-0 win over Shaktar Donetsk in the Champions League on Tuesday evening. We discuss team selection, and a game which probably should have been more emphatic for the Gunners based on first half chances. Then we chat about the second half drop-off, analyse the potential reasons for that, discuss some individuals like Gabriel Martinelli, Gabriel Jesus and Raheem Sterling, fret about the potential injury to Riccardo Calafiori, wonder why we haven't seen a bit more of Ethan Nwaneri of late and lots more.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie comb through the 2-0 victory at West Ham. Tim and Jamie look at Arsenal's tactical approach and selection and some of the issues with chance creation rearing their head again, question how much has changed and how much change we could expect from Renee Slegers' interim charge and look at the impact of the quadruple substitution early in the second half. In the second half, Tim and Jamie take your questions on the midfield, whether Kafaji should have an increased role now, Steph Catley at centre-back, the goalkeeper situation, whether Arsenal need a 'clean break' with a new manager ASAP and then Tim and Jamie consider Manu Zinsberger's recent LinkedIn post and consider the lines between criticism and abuse.

In this episode we look back at Saturday's 2-0 defeat to Bournemouth. We start with discussion of the starting XI, before moving to the big incident which saw William Saliba sent off for apparently denying a goalscoring opportunity. There's chat about that decision and how Mikel Arteta reacted and reshaped his team, Gabriel Martinelli's miss, the goals we conceded, the delay in making a change when we went 1-0 down, and Ethan Nwaneri's cameo. Then there are listener questions about officiating/PGMOL, how we set up against Liverpool next weekend without Saliba, how heightened expectations impact how we feel about losing games, and lots more.

There's more discussion of the Brazilian and his role, a chat about Gabriel Jesus and what we can get out of him this season, how full backs like Jurrien Timber and Riccardo Calafiori offer tactical variety, Mikel Merino, how the Interlulls prevent early-season rhythm and lots more.

In this emergency episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie run the rule over the resignation of Jonas Eidevall as the Head Coach of Arsenal Women. Tim talks a little bit about how Arseblog News became aware of and were able to (just about) break the story on Tuesday morning. Then Tim and Jamie analyse where things went wrong, how the situation took a serious turn in the last week, why it didn't quite click the way the club and Jonas wanted it to and looked ahead to how Arsenal might succession plan for his departure. Tim and Jamie then each share one high point from Eidevall's reign.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast Tim and Jamie pore over the 2-1 defeat to Chelsea on Saturday and try to dissect how to separate this result and performance from the wider funk that Arsenal seem to be in. Did Arsenal just 'get varianced'? And is it possible to separate that from the wider malaise? Tim and Jamie talk about the defending on the goals conceded and whether a lack of confidence in attack had an impact on the result with more than one proven player low on confidence. In the second half, Tim and Jamie deal with listener questions on Rosa Kafaji and the lack of integration for young players, on Clare Wheatley's role and whether more communication from 'upstairs' is needed at the club and on the delicate balance between rotation and trying and failing to find partnerships that work.
