In this episode we look back at the 6-0 thrashing of Sheffield United on Monday night. We discuss Arsenal's ruthlessness and dominance in the early stages, in the context of a big tactical misstep by the opposition. Nevertheless, our performance deserves a lot of credit, the goalscoring form continues and the goal difference has been improved once again. We chat about the goals we scored and the players who impressed, why we were probably right to take our foot off the gas in the second half, and the second half substitutions which saw a couple of experienced players get what could be important minutes.

In this episode we look back at Arsenal's impressive 3-0 win over Brighton on Saturday evening. We talk about the risk/reward nature of the Gunners approach against this particular opposition, and how having adjusted slightly early in the first half, the opposition threat was more or less negated.

We discuss all the big moments, from team selection, to the potential red card for Harry Kane, the penalty incidents at both ends, and the Gunners overall display on the night. There's also some focus on individual performances, and whether Arsenal have an issue at left-back (in light of the displays from Kiwior and Zinchenko), before we answer questions about Declan Rice, Leandro Trossard's push for a start in the second leg, the state of the tie itself, learning in the Champions League and lots more.

In this one part episode (without Qs in part 2), we look back at Arsenal's Champions League exit, going down 1-0 to Bayern Munich last night. Once again, the second half was below par and we paid the price. We examine the reasons as to why that has been an issue in our last two games, and what Mikel Arteta can do about it in terms of his squad building going forward. There's chat about fatigue and heavy legs, the players we brought on from the bench and the players who stayed on it, what we can learn from this European campaign, how this collective probably needs a smattering of individualism for big games like last night, the striker discussion, and lots more.

In this episode we look back on the 2-0 win at Wolves on Saturday evening which put us back on top of the Premier League. We discuss how Arsenal had to dig deep after a difficult week, but put in a performance that belied the tired legs, despite the fact we had to wait until late to seal the three points. We chat about Leandro Trossard's goal, whether Wolves should have had a red card, David Raya's excellent save, and how Mikel Arteta asked a lot of key men like Odegaard, Rice and Saka and how they delivered. Then we answer questions about goals from set-pieces, which position should be prioritised in the summer transfer window, how the manager rotates his squad (or chooses not to), and lots more – including details of our end of season live podcast event with our friends from the ArsenalVision podcast.

In this episode we look back on the eventful 3-2 win in the North London derby on Sunday. Despite not being at our best, we were 3-0 up at the break, and we discuss the goals we scored, and how we exploited the lack of opposition preparation and awareness – particularly from set-pieces. Ben White and Declan Rice had some fun in that regard. We also chat about the chances they had up the other end, including a disallowed goal, before moving onto the second half. There's focus on David Raya's mistake and the reaction to it from him and his teammates, conceding the late penalty and how it made for an awful, nerve-wracking last 10 minutes, but underlying it all is the fact we won, took three points, and Spurs have crap trumpets. Then there are listener questions about Kai Havertz, Bukayo Saka's reaction to abuse from the stands, Thomas Partey's future and lots more.

And does it obscure discussion of his outstanding quality and consistency as a footballer?

In this episode we look back on the 3-0 win over Bournemouth on Saturday afternoon. The Gunners produced a dominant first half, but it was a late first half penalty that gave us the lead at the break. We analyse the key moments of the opening 45, from the potential red card to the missed chances to the award of the spot kick. Then we look at a second half where Leandro Trossard scored again, but was there a touch of good fortune about Bournemouth's disallowed goal which would have made the game more uncomfortable? Declan Rice's performance merited a goal and he got it late on, and we also answer listener questions about whether he should be used as an 8 more than a 6, potential changes to the coaching staff, the Gabriel Jesus story James wrote last week, some #ANGEOUT, and lots more.

In this episode recorded not long after the game, we look back at Arsenal's 1-0 win over Man Utd at Old Trafford on Sunday. It wasn't a great performance, but Leandro Trossard's first half goal was enough for all three points and to keep the title push going until the final day. We chat about why the attacking performance was so inhibited, but there's praise for the way we defended against a United side that offered little to threaten us. Underlying it all though, was a sense of pre-game dread, and we discuss that, and the prospect of the final day, as well as answering listener questions about Spurs game against Man City on Tuesday, William Saliba, and much more.

Then we consider the final day of the season, and how we've pushed City all the way with the outside chance of still winning the league.

Then Tim reflects on the Arsenal career of Vivianne Miedema who's departure was announced this week, as well as some chat about that decision, how it came to pass, and what might happen on the final day of the season.

In this episode we chat about James' trip to Glastonbury, sadly lacking in Sugababes, but eventful nonetheless, before we turn our attention to the football and Euro 2024 in particular. There's discussion of Ronaldo's histrionics last night, England's performances and progression, and some focus on the Arsenal players who have been most involved over the course of the tournament. Then we answer listener questions about getting more value from our Academy players, which of them might make the trip to the US for the summer tour and stake a claim for a place, transfers in general and whether things will start to get busy now we're in July, and lots more.

In this episode we start with discussion of England's win over Switzerland at the Euros, centred around the brilliant Bukayo Saka who scored a fantastic equaliser, and one of the five penalties to help his team progress.

Then there's some transfer chat, questions about William Saliba as the left-sided centre-half, the two Brazilian Gabriels who have been away at the Copa America, Jakub Kiwior's future in light of ongoing interest in Riccardo Calafiori, the mystery German player, and lots more.

In this episode I'm joined by Lewis Ambrose to discuss England's 2-1 win over the Netherlands on Wednesday night, which sends them through to the final of Euro 2024. We chat about the goal England conceded, the contentious penalty award which provided the equaliser, the second half in which fatigue clearly played a part for both sides, and how an injection of energy was so important. Should Ollie Watkins goal propel him into the starting line-up for Sunday's clash with Spain? All that, plus a round-up of the Arsenal transfer news.

We also chat about some potential departures, what we need to see from Fabio Vieira this season, Ethan Nwaneri and how pre-season could be very important for him, and lots more, including some US tour chat
