Arseblog Arsecast, The Arsenal Podcast

In this episode I'm joined Phil Costa to discuss our 4-0 win over PSV in the Champions League on Wednesday night. We chat about the team line-up; Bukayo Saka scoring his first CL goal on his debut appearance in the competition and his statistically impressive season so far; Leandro Trossard getting on the scoresheet again; a big performance from Gabriel Jesus who also got a goal; Martin Odegaard's trademark; the importance of the defensive platform we have to be able to attack as well as we did; Arsenal returning to the Champions League with a bang, and more.We also have a quick chat about some of the highlights from week 1 of the Champions League.Follow Phil @_philcosta

In this episode we look back at the 1-0 win over Everton on Sunday. We chat about Arsenal's control of this game (and others this season), and whether it comes at a cost to our attacking play. We then discuss the Gabriel Martinelli disallowed goal, Fabio Vieira's selection in midfield, the set-piece play and finish from Leandro Trossard which won the game, before moving on to the big talking point – David Raya starting over Aaron Ramsdale. Mikel Arteta's post-game comments about that decision were fascinating – are we about to see a new era of goalkeeping rotation, or was this simply a changing of the guard. Then there are listener questions about Declan Rice's influence, hoodoo games we'd like to win, Eddie Nketiah/Gabriel Jesus and the centre-forward role, winning lots of corners, and loads more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog
