Arseblog Arsecast, The Arsenal Podcast

In this episode we look back at the 1-0 win over Wolves on Saturday, starting with, and focusing on, the red card issued to Myles Lewis-Skelly by referee Michael Oliver. There's discussion of the incident, the officials including VAR, how Arsenal seem to endure more of these decisions than anyone else, and the way we're refereed. Then we turn our attention to how the Gunners reacted with 10 men, the other red card, the goal Riccardo Calafiori won the game with, and how these players are giving so much and badly need help via the transfer market. Then we have listener questions about officiating again, Matheus Cunha as a potential target, Kieran Tierney's future in the short and longer-term, links to Norwegian midfielder Sverre Nypan and lots more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog

In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to look back on last night's 2-1 win in the North London derby. After two cup defeats Arsenal had to respond, and the job was made more difficult after falling behind in the 25th minute. However, we dug deep, and found two quick goals towards the end of the first half which helped us to three points. We chat about those strikes, Leandro Trossard's instinctive finishing ability, a superb performance from 18 year old Myles Lewis-Skelly, how this result should help galvanise the fanbase after we closed the gap on Liverpool in the title race, and lots more besides.Follow Phil on BlueSky - @philcosta.bsky.socialGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog

In this episode we look back at the FA Cup third round penalty shoot-out defeat to Man Utd on Sunday. We discuss the first half injury to Gabriel Jesus, the goal we conceded, the red card for Dalot, and how Arsenal had the chances to win the game but couldn't put the ball in the back of the net with Odegaard and Havertz especially culpable in that sense. We also analyse the penalty shoot-out which didn't go our way, assess the mood after two cup defeats in a week, before we talk about Mikel Arteta's post-game comments and then answer listener questions about our style of play, the need for January business if Jesus is injured long-term, how the summer signings should be viewed now that we're 6 months into the season, and lots more besides.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog

In this episode I'm joined by Harry Symeou from The Chronicles of a Gooner to look back at the 2-0 defeat to Newcastle in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg. There's a lot of focus on what Arsenal are lacking in the final third, particularly against a team that sit deep as they did when they got 2-0 up. We discuss the variance in quality between our forwards and theirs on the night, what we can do to address it with the players we have and in the transfer market, the goals we conceded and how we could have done better, where it leaves the tie and lots more – including thoughts on the January transfer window and reports linking Tomas Rosicky to the job of Sporting Director.Follow The Chronicle of a Gooner on YouTube here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbDo0kye_J-N0TkQoBTPSjAGet extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog
