The Arsenal Therapy Podcast

Arsenal waltzed to a 4-2 victory over Ipswich, and Max Dowman absolutely stole the show with two stunning goals, alongside one from Noni Madueke and a fourth from Mikel Merino.The touch, control, feather feet, technique and arrogance to skip past men and score at 16 is something you can’t teach. But, Arsenal have a player who also works for the team, forces turnovers and plays effectively with his back to goal; Max Dowman defies the laws of football.In this video, Adam Keys looks at what made Max's performance so special and why his off the bal0:00 Max Dowman: a special young talent0:31 Arsenal’s win at Ipswich1:02 Arteta’s trust in Max Dowman2:04 Arsenal’s fast start and first goal4:25 Max’s physicality, power and confidence5:27 Carries through midfield and the second goal7:06 Max’s off-ball work and pressing8:43 Zubimendi, Madueke and the wider team performance10:35 Marley Salmon’s composed display12:12 Miles Skelly’s development and midfield future13:23 Bruno Guimarães and the value of risk14:56 Arsenal’s principles and squad depth16:29 Why this Arsenal side looks so dangerous17:31 Final thoughts and player praiseFollow us on Twitter/X:https://x.com/adamkeys https://x.com/arsenaltherapy Instragram:https://www.instagram.com/_adamkeys_/Watch football anywhere in the world with the help of Nord VPN:https://go.nordvpn.net/aff_c?offer_id=15&aff_id=128564&url_id=902#arsenal #maxdowman #dowman #carabaocup #arteta #madueke #merino #arsenalvsipswich

Bruno Guimarães responded to the boos with a game changing performance filled with courage in possession, leadership, street smarts and a goal to announce himself as a star at Arsenal. This is the personality Newcastle fans loved; a huge statement when the team needed it most.From countdowns on every one of our throws whilst Sunderland made an event of every one of theirs, to the continuous fouls overlooked, justice was served in the end. This is a monumental win straight after Napoli away, and another example of why #Arsenal are champions.

Martin Ødegaard was the heartbeat of our Arsenal performance in Naples, proving we can dismantle a deep low block away from home.
Winning in a hostile stadium against a disciplined low block is the ultimate test of maturity for this side. It was arguably one of the best displays of the season, showing real composure when the crowd was against us and the space was non-existent.
Martin Ødegaard orchestrated the tempo perfectly, consistently finding pockets of space that forced the opposition out of their shape.
When we combine that level of technical control with our defensive solidity, it creates a blueprint for how we should approach these difficult European nights. It was a masterclass in football tactics that highlights why this group is ready to compete at the highest level.

Kai Havertz and Martin Ødegaard ran the show as Arsenal beat Chelsea 2-1 at the Emirates.

Kai now has five in his last six Arsenal starts, with three of those coming against PSG, City and Chelsea. From the goal, to the dummy for Ødegaard and the constant outball for David Raya to hit, this was a complete forward’s performance. Never underestimate his importance to this team.

Last season, #Arsenal weren’t ruthless enough when we played in form teams around us in the table. Against Chelsea, we showed that we can mix it in attack with the most hyped attacking side in the league, whilst restricting them to very little at the other end. The maturity of champions.

In this video, Adam Keys looks at the importantance of Kai Havertz and Martin Ødegaard to Arsenal's ceiling and why they were critical to the team's success against Chelsea.

Not adding in attack means Eberechi Eze has become one of #Arsenal’s most important attackers. We saw his quality against Villa, and despite big contributions last season, there is huge untapped potential in his game, and it’s on him to grab his opportunity. He has the talent.In this video, Adam Keys looks at how Mikel Arteta can work with the group he has, with a focus on how Eberechi Eze and Christos Tzolis can work together on the left hand side, and how Martin Ødegaard, Bruno Guimarães and Bukayo Saka can feed into the impact of the left hand side.Pairing will be key on this side, with the club failing to land an elite, game changing attacker, and Riccardo Calafiori and Piero Hincapie will play very important roles in optimising the conditions of those in front of them, but ultimately, this comes down to how Mikel Arteta's coaching will elevate the team, rather than individuals.Follow us on Twitter/X:https://x.com/adamkeys https://x.com/arsenaltherapy Instragram:https://www.instagram.com/_adamkeys_/Watch football anywhere in the world with the help of Nord VPN:https://go.nordvpn.net/aff_c?offer_id=15&aff_id=128564&url_id=902#arsenal #afc #arsenalvsastonvilla #villavsarsenal #arsast #premierleague #odegaard #havertz #saka #arteta #footballtactics #footballnews #footballhighlights
