Arseblog Arsecast, The Arsenal Podcast

In this episode I'm joined by first by Sam Dean to discuss the ins and outs of Arsenal's 1-0 win over Atletico Madrid last night, a result which sends us through to the Champions League final. We chat about the team selection and Mikel Arteta keeping faith with the team that beat Fulham, Atletico's tactical approach in the first half, Bukayo Saka's goal which ultimately won the tie, the way the second half played out, the perception of the two managers differing despite similarities in touchline behaviour, and how it felt like there was a real moment of communion between the team and fans as the final whistle went and the celebrations began.

There's also a quick chat with James as we react to a first CL final in 20 years and only the second in the club's history, what it all means and feels like from a fan perspective, how this might impact the rest of our Premier League campaign and more.

In this episode we look back at Saturday's very enjoyable 3-0 win over Fulham. It's one which certainly connected with the fans in the stadium, and we start by chatting about the reaction to the half-time whistle, before discussing an excellent first half with three goals, the impactful return of Bukayo Saka who got a goal and an assist, two goals and an excellent performance from Viktor Gyokeres, Leandro Trossard bringing some technical quality to the left, and how a handsome half-time lead and that kind of performance were just what everyone needed after some difficult experiences of late. There's also a big chat about Myles Lewis-Skelly in midfield and whether this opens a door for him after a frustrating season, a look ahead to the game tomorrow night and its importance, as well as listener questions about Declan Rice, William Saliba, who might play left-back against Atletico Madrid, and lots more.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie rake over the coals of Arsenal's Champions League semi-final exit to Lyon on Saturday. They talk about not being able to live with Lyon's intensity in the first half, the VAR penalty decision, Arsenal's second half improvement, the substitutions and whether they expose depth issues with the squad at this level and there is some chat about the emotional response to the defeat. In part 2, Tim and Jamie ask your questions submitted on BlueSky, most of which were about squad building and the summer transfer window.

In this episode I'm joined by Kaya Kaynak to chat about the 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday evening. It may not have been a high scoring 'thriller' but it was still a compelling game, with interesting tactical aspects to consider from both managers. We discuss the ebb and flow the game itself, the two penalties that were awarded and scored, and the one that was given to Arsenal but then taken away by a VAR review which left Mikel Arteta 'fuming', in his own words. We also chat about how the substitutes the Arsenal boss made an impact, how the game is poised for the second leg, and lots more – including an update on the fundraiser and details of the Arseblog donations for the month of April.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie run the rule over Arsenal’s 2-1 Champions League semi-final first leg over Lyon in North London. There is discussion of the line-ups, the performances of Emily Fox, Caitlin Foord, Katie McCabe and Lotte Wubben-Moy, as well as reflections on Arsenal’s increasing maturity and experience at dealing with situations in this competition. Tim and Jamie look back on a pair of pretty calamitous goals in the second half that Arsenal nevertheless deserved. There is also chat (and some extra context) around reports that Manchester City are closing in on signing Beth Mead and Katie McCabe. In the second half, Tim and Jamie take your questions from BlueSky.
