    Episode 780- Demolition Derby

    Episode 780- Demolition Derby

    In this episode I'm joined by Andrew Allen to look back to Arsenal's 5-0 demolition of Chelsea on Tuesday night. We chat about the quick opening goal which made Anne Hathaway happy, the red card Chelsea should have had, and missed chances from the Gunners. We also look at how we were more solid in the second half, with two goals from Kai Havertz and Ben White – with the former Chelsea man celebrating his strikes with gusto. There's discussion of how Havertz has grown into this team, the Martin Odegaard performance, the significance of the result, and lots more.

    Arsecast Extra Episode 581 - 22.04.2024

    In this episode we look back on the 2-0 win at Wolves on Saturday evening which put us back on top of the Premier League. We discuss how Arsenal had to dig deep after a difficult week, but put in a performance that belied the tired legs, despite the fact we had to wait until late to seal the three points. We chat about Leandro Trossard's goal, whether Wolves should have had a red card, David Raya's excellent save, and how Mikel Arteta asked a lot of key men like Odegaard, Rice and Saka and how they delivered. Then we answer questions about goals from set-pieces, which position should be prioritised in the summer transfer window, how the manager rotates his squad (or chooses not to), and lots more – including details of our end of season live podcast event with our friends from the ArsenalVision podcast.

    Arsecast Extra Episode 580 - 18.04.2024

    In this one part episode (without Qs in part 2), we look back at Arsenal's Champions League exit, going down 1-0 to Bayern Munich last night. Once again, the second half was below par and we paid the price. We examine the reasons as to why that has been an issue in our last two games, and what Mikel Arteta can do about it in terms of his squad building going forward. There's chat about fatigue and heavy legs, the players we brought on from the bench and the players who stayed on it, what we can learn from this European campaign, how this collective probably needs a smattering of individualism for big games like last night, the striker discussion, and lots more.

    Arsecast Extra Episode 579 - 15.04.2024

    In this episode we look back at the 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa on Sunday which, despite being our first loss of 2024, has caused a significant amount frustration and disappointment. We examine the reasons for that response, reflect on game of two halves in which the Gunners can have attacking regrets in the first and defensive ones in the second, as well as discussing why it felt like Mikel Artets allowed the game to get away from us after the break. Then there are listener questions beginning with Oleksandr Zinchenko's performance and what that might mean for his future, who plays at left-back in the Champions League, home and away form, Emile Smith Rowe, Fabio Vieira and lots more.

    Arsecast Extra Episode 578 - 10.04.2024

    In this episode we look back at the 2-2 draw with Bayern Munich on Wednesday night. Arsenal went ahead, but carelessness handed two goals the opposition, before Leandro Trossard equalised late in the second half. We discuss all the big moments, from team selection, to the potential red card for Harry Kane, the penalty incidents at both ends, and the Gunners overall display on the night. There's also some focus on individual performances, and whether Arsenal have an issue at left-back (in light of the displays from Kiwior and Zinchenko), before we answer questions about Declan Rice, Leandro Trossard's push for a start in the second leg, the state of the tie itself, learning in the Champions League and lots more.

    Arsecast Extra Episode 577 - 07.04.2024

    In this episode we look back at Arsenal's impressive 3-0 win over Brighton on Saturday evening. We talk about the risk/reward nature of the Gunners approach against this particular opposition, and how having adjusted slightly early in the first half, the opposition threat was more or less negated. We analyse the penalty incident and the goals we scored, the man of the match performance from Kai Havertz, and the way we settled into a comfortable defensive system after going 2-0 up. There's also chat about Leandro Trossard scoring against his former club, what this result means in the context of the weekend's results, as well as listener questions about how Havertz's development at centre-forward might influence summer transfer business, left-back for Bayern and Jakub Kiwior, Gabriel's Player of the Season credentials, Martin Odegaard's importance and lots more.

As good as it gets

If you’re a Gooner and not listening to this, you’re making a big mistake. It’s literally as good as Arsenal content gets. I look forward to Mondays because of Andrew and James.

The gold standard of Arsenal pods

Informed, clever, insightful and heartfelt, the award winning Arseblog Arsecast is the only Arsenal podcast that I absolutely must listen to. Andrew and James have wonderful rapport and chemistry for the Arsecast Extra. They are both very relatable human beings who are humble and often self deprecating. Andrew’s other guests are a well curated mix of great Arsenal minds, and Tim Stillman’s Arsenal Women’s pods are also top notch.

Each episode gives listeners insight, analysis and opinions that are not the usual lazy and tired takes you get from most other media outlets. Instead you get thoughtful answers and in-depth coverage, done with repartee that is simultaneously irreverent and down-to-earth (and often laugh-out-loud funny).

Where other football pods can be a bit too exclusive and/or regionally specific, Andrew has created an atmosphere that is inclusive to an international audience; as an American not raised on “Soccer”, I really appreciate this.

If Arsecast becomes as important a part of your week as it is for mine I would highly recommend joining the Patreon version, which offers more episodes including pods for new signings, EPL recaps (“The 30”), and game previews.
