Ramble Reacts: Arsenal falter again
And look what they made Jim do. He’s only gone and smashed all his precious Ming vases in his living room.
Marcus and Jim review a difficult night for Arsenal in Europe, as they were beaten by a canny Inter side 1-0 and did a peak impersonation of David Moyes’ Man United.
Jim explains why he’s concerned about Arsenal’s inflexibility. Plus, our man on the continent – and for once we don’t mean Andy Brassell – brings us an excited voicenote from the Parc des Princes after a winner with the last kick of the game. Oh, and Tyrone Mings concedes a truly bizarre penalty for Aston Villa. Believe us…
