In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to discuss Arsenal's 3-0 Champions League win over Slavia Prague. We chat about the changes to the starting XI, a difficult start for the Gunners before getting on top, a European handball to give us a penalty in the first half, and the enigma that is Mikel Merino finding the back of the net twice. We also talk about an interesting tactical decision from Mikel Arteta, keeping yet another clean sheet to equal an incredibly long-standing club record, Max Dowman becoming the youngest ever Champions League player, and lots more – including the winners of last week's book competition.

Arsenal Women Arsecast Episode 141: Gunners stroll to victory against Leicester
In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie discuss Sunday's 4-1 win at Leicester and consider how much of a step forward the performance and result are. There is discussion of Stina Blackstenius' five star display and how Arsenal exploited space around the sides of Leicester's back three, the performance of Taylor Hinds at right-back and use of Russo as more of a second striker than a 10. In the second half, Tim and Jamie take your questions and look ahead to Saturday's must win game at home to Chelsea.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/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

In this episode we look back on the 2-0 win over Burnley at Turf Moor on Saturday. The goals came from Viktor Gyokeres and Declan Rice, and the Gunners probably should have scored more. The chat about the first 45 minutes which won the game for Arsenal, the 'non-event' second half, but which is a demonstration of the control this team is capable of, and yet another clean sheet without a shot on target. There's a wider discussion about the way this side is operating this season, questions about Rice and his midfield impact, Myles Lewis-Skelly with real competition at left-back, Leandro Trossard causing some frustration, rotation for the Champions League this week, our disciplinary record this season, and loads more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

We chat about Mikel Arteta's team selection, which saw 10 changes from the team that beat Crystal Palace on Sunday, and included a 15 year old and a 17 year old debutant. Two 'older' young players combined for the opening goal, before Bukayo Saka made it safe.
