Arseblog Arsecast, The Arsenal Podcast

In this episode we look back at the 3-0 win over Sunderland on Saturday afternoon. There's discussion of a tricky enough first half and the visitors' approach to the game, before Martin Zubimendi cracked the game open with his 6th goal of the season. The Gunners had chances to score more, and we then talk about the impact of Mikel Arteta's substitutions after Viktor Gyokeres came off the bench to score twice and Gabriel Martinelli provided an assist for one of them. We also touch on the influence of Leandro Trossard and the midfield pairing of Declan Rice and Zubimendi, before we answer questions about William Saliba, shirt pulling, Martinelli's performance levels this season, the big game at Anfield between Liverpool and Man City, and loads more.

In this episode I'm joined by Lewis Ambrose to look back at Tuesday night's 1-0 win over Chelsea in the Carabao Cup semi-final second leg. We discuss Chelsea's approach to a game they had to score in, and their decision to essentially nullify the game for an hour, giving them less time to find a goal. Was this an understandable tactical approach from Liam Rosenior, or something of a misstep. We also chat about how Arsenal dealt with the game, leaning into our defensive solidity, before scoring what was a very enjoyable goal right at the end through Kai Havertz to absolutely ensure our pathway to a Wembley final next month. As well as that, there's discussion of what this trophy might mean for the team and the fans after so long without tangible success, and lots more besides.

In this episode we look back at the 4-0 win over Leeds at Elland Road on Saturday. We chat about the team selection which saw Kai Havertz start, and help bring a different kind of dynamic to the team's midfield set-up, with Declan Rice and Martin Zubimendi playing distinct roles too. We also discuss Noni Madueke, a late call-up after Bukayo Saka's warm-up injury, and his contribution with an assist and a belatedly awarded goal. In the second half Viktor Gyokeres missed a chance but also tucked one away well, there were important cameos off the bench from Martin Odegaard, Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus, and a resounding win was made more impactful by the points Man City dropped yesterday. In part 2 we have questions about Mikel Merino's injury and whether or not Arsenal will move in the market before this evening's deadline, potential beneficiaries of the Spaniard's absence, Declan Rice, Ethan Nwaneri, tomorrow's night Carabao Cup semi-final, and lots more.
