Arseblog Arsecast, The Arsenal Podcast

In this episode, we chat about the 3-3 draw with Southampton on Friday night, beginning with the shambolic start we made to the game, gifting them a goal and then falling 2-0 behind not long afterwards. We chat about the huddle, scoring quickly, late chances in the second half, and a tactical change by the visitors at half-time. There's focus on our defensive issues as we concede again, missed cha...

In this week's show I chat first to Tim Stillman about a difficult week for Arsenal Women, compounded by what seems to be a serious injury for Leah Williamson. We discuss the prevalence of these injuries in the women's game, and where it leaves the season with two huge Champions League semi-finals to come. Then it's Lewis Ambrose as we prepare to face Southampton on Friday night. We chat about the...

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim is live from London Colney chatting to Gunners Jen Beattie, Lotte Wubben-Moy and Victoria Pelova ahead of Arsenal's huge Women's Champions League semi-finals against Wolfsburg. Tim speaks to Jen about the evolution of the UWCL over the last decade, to Lotte about Arsenal's evolution and lessons learned across the last two seasons in the UWCL as we...

In this episode, James returns to discuss the 2-2 draw with West Ham on Sunday. For the second successive game, Arsenal let a 2-0 lead slip, but this one feels worse than last week at Anfield. We try and analyse why it might be happening, and how it's in stark contrast to a very positive start. We chat about the pressure of the title race, Bukayo Saka's penalty miss, the goals we conceded, the imp...

I'm too tired to write a whole thing as you will hear from the very short intro, but here's a podcast with me and Philippe Auclair talking about tickets, Arsenal's title challenge, dealing with the might of Man City, the points we've accrued this season already and lots more. Enjoy! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode I'm joined by first by former Arsenal goalkeeper David Seaman to discuss the season so far, the progress we've made with Hale End influence in the first team, Aaron Ramsdale, his ongoing work with the club and more. We also have two tickets to give away to a Seaman Says live show on April 24th - details here: https://seamansays.co.uk/live/ Then, ahead of a trip to Liverpool on Sund...

In this episode I'm joined by Ryan Hunn as James takes some time to celebrate a new arrival, and we discuss the 4-1 win over Leeds on Saturday. There's praise for Aaron Ramsdale for some first half saves, before Gabriel Jesus got going again, scoring twice – his first from the spot, before a beautiful second which included an excellent contribution from Leandro Trossard who gets some flowers of hi...

In this episode I'm joined by first by Tim Payton of the Arsenal Supporter's Trust to talk about the ticketing situation at Arsenal right now. Demand is high because the team are good, and that's causing difficulties for members to watch the team. We chat about some how the club are trying to deal with this, as well as the ongoing issues with touts and unofficial ticketing websites who claim to ha...

In this impromptu episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim goes solo! Tim goes over a magical night at Emirates Stadium in which the Gunners qualified for their first Champions League semi-final in 10 years with a 2-0 win over Bayern Munich. Tim talks about the impact of that Conti Cup Final win over Chelsea earlier in the month, why a trophy and a UWCL semi-final were such big priorities this s...

It might be an Interlull but there's still plenty to chat about. We start with Antonio Conte's sacking and whether Arsenal's good season so far has contributed, before we take a look at the players on international duty, not least Bukayo Saka who was the star for England as they beat Ukraine. There's also some Zinchenko, Odegaard and Smith Rowe, before we go into part 2 with some Arsenal related d...

In this episode I'm joined by Art de Roché of The Athletic for some Interlull Q&A. We took questions from our Patreon members about the demands of international football, changing combinations, the biggest surprise of the season so far, an Arsenal physio accompanying Thomas Partey as he went away with Ghana, the importance of the Man City game, whether this is just the start for this Arsenal t...

In this episode we look back at the 4-1 win over Crystal Palace on Sunday, which put us 8 points clear at the top of the table. We discuss team selection, not least Rob Holding starting his first Premier League game of the season, and how he acquitted himself. We continue to marvel at the contributions of Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli as they got three of our four goals, there's the goal we c...

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim chats to Munich based journalist Alina Ruprecht from 90 minutes Germany and the FRUEF Podcast.

  In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to discuss Arsenal's Europa League exit at the hands of Sporting CP. We chat about the team selection, going ahead in the first half, but also the impact of picking up two injuries and having to make two changes in that period. There's discussion of the second half, not winning our duels, midfield being a bit lightweight, and the goal that Sporting s...

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast we focus on the improvement in the atmosphere at Arsenal Women matches, home and away, this season. First Tim chats to Arsenal Women Supporters Club Treasurer Brian Kelly to talk about how the supporters club have worked with Arsenal for improvements on ticketing, dedicated Arsenal sections at away games and creating a sense of community among the supp...

In this episode we look back at the 3-0 win over Fulham at Craven Cottage on Sunday. Arsenal dominated the first half in particular, and we discuss the goals we scored, the control and composure in possession, the footballing IQ of the players to be able to do that, and the impact of Leandro Trossard as he grabbed a hat-trick of assists. We also chat about the Fire and Ice of Gabriel and William S...

In this episode I'm joined by Andrew Allen to discuss the 2-2 draw with Sporting CP in the Europa League Round of 16. It felt very much like a first leg, and we chat about some of Arsenal's good moments, interspersed with some iffy ones. Their first goal didn't look pretty and it could easily have been 3-1 before we made it 2-2. Still, we made 6 changes, had a lot of players missing through injury...

In this episode we relive the extraordinary 3-2 win over Bournemouth on Saturday. On a day of huge emotion, we try to analyse the game as best we can, from team selection, to going behind, then 2-0 down, and afterwards the incredible comeback culminating in Reiss Nelson's late, great winner. But we're fans too, so we talk about how it feels and what it means for the supporters, as well as the play...

In this episode I'm joined by James Benge of CBS Sports to discuss the 4-0 win over Everton on Wednesday. We chat about the first half and how Arsenal struggled a little bit, before Bukayo Saka produced a moment of outstanding quality to change the complexion of the game. We discuss how the goal came about, how what Saka is doing at 21 is so impressive, as well as the contributions from Martin Ode...

In this episode we chat about the 1-0 win over Leicester on Saturday. Arsenal exerted real control over every aspect of the game except the scoreline, but there were other factors at play. Inevitably we talk about VAR, the disallowed goals, and the penalty we should have been awarded. There's discussion about why Leicester were so toothless for 90 minutes, and how these are the kinds of games you...
