In this episode I'm joined by Tim Stillman to look back at Wednesday night's 2-0 win over Olympiacos. An early goal settled the nerves, but European games can be tricky, that proved to be the case here. Arsenal had chances to score, but so too did the opposition and we had David Raya to thank for keeping a clean sheet. We discuss the overall performance, some key moments, and analyse players like Martin Odegaard, Viktor Gyokeres, and Bukayo Saka, as well as chatting about how Mikel Arteta is using his deep squad so far this season. There's also some brief chat about William Saliba's new contract, refereeing standards/inconsistency, and more.EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/arseblog – Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Arsenal Women Arsecast 137: Villa with the stoppage time killer
On this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie pick over the bones of Saturday's disappointing 1-1 draw with Aston Villa. There is discussion of Arsenal's ball progression issues without Leah Williamson, how the Gunners struggled to play through Villa's pressure, as well as whether there is a psychological issue at play too with Renee Slegers suggesting the players relaxed due to the early goal. In part 2, Tim and Jamie take your questions on Bluesky around squad utilisation and looking ahead to a huge week with games against Manchester City and Lyon.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog's award winning coverage of Arsenal Women by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblogIf you are a regular listener please consider giving the show a review in your favourite podcast app, thanks!

Arsecast Extra Episode 660 - 29.09.2025
In this episode we look back at Arsenal's 2-1 win over Newcastle at St James' Park on Sunday. We chat about how well the Gunners played in the first half, the Viktor Gyokeres penalty incident, our response to that set-back, as well as the goal we conceded and how that impacted the game. There's also discussion of how we turned the game around with two late goals, once again with impact from the bench, the quality of Gabriel from set-pieces, and just how important this result was in the context of this season so far – for the team and fans alike. In part two we have listener questions about Gyokeres, towels, Jurrien Timber, Eze and Odegaard, and loads more besides.EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/arseblog – Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Episode 846 - Microscope
In this episode I'm joined by Kaya Kaynak of Tifo (The Athletic) to look back on Wednesday night's relatively uneventful EFL Cup win over Port Vale. We chat about the goals, including a first one for the club by Eberechi Eze, and the overall performance – but try to put it into context in various ways. We then chat about Max Dowman; Leandro Trossard as a 'super sub'; Viktor Gyokeres and his start to life at Arsenal; whether some of the discourse around the team in the early part of the season is entirely fair; a new contract for William Saliba and what that says about his belief in the club's ability to compete; and lots more besides.
