In this Interlull episode we catch up with what some of the Arsenal boys have been up to on international duty, including four on show for England, Max Dowman getting fouled a lot by a bloke with a made-up name, and Mikel Merino scoring a hat-trick for Spain. We then move on to the big topic of the day, Martin Odegaard's new haircut, with some expert discussion on what is and isn't officially a beard. Then in part two we review our transfer predictions from the summer window, answer questions about the new Premier League football and Alexander Isak, before we pick a team to play each other from our big squad, and there's the player ratings game to close us out.Mikel Arteta pic here: https://imgur.com/a/WqpMQgKEXCLUSIVE 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 134: Gunners maul London City Lionesses
In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie look back over the 4-1 win over LCL on the opening day of the WSL season. They consider the selection of Katie Reid at centre-half and whether she will continue in the position while Leah Williamson is injured, a slow start to the game, Olivia Smith's moment of magic, the impact of the 'game changers' from the bench and whether this match points to a more fluid use of the squad this season. In the second half, Tim and Jamie answer listener questions on the Sunday synchronised kickoffs, Kyra Cooney-Cross and selection for Friday's game at West Ham.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/arseblogEXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal ➼ https://nordvpn.com/arseblog – Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!

Episode 843 - Injuries
In this episode I'm joined by Dr Andrew Mitchell to cover the thorny subject of injuries at Arsenal and in football generally. We take listener questions on topics like the prevalence of hamstring injuries and worries about recurrence; when can/should a manager overrule a player if they say they want to play; investment in medical personnel and technology at football clubs; ACL injuries in the women's game; what clubs have to consider when they play a 15 year old like Max Dowman; and lots more.Follow Andrew on BlueSky - @arsenal-phd.bsky.socialThis is the blog post I reference in the beginning - https://arseblog.com/2025/09/handbrake-off/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.

Arsecast Extra Episode 656 - 31.08.2025
In this episode we look back on today's 1-0 defeat to Liverpool at Anfield. We discuss the starting line-up with Mikel Merino chosen in the absence of Martin Odegaard – was Mikel Arteta too cautious, or does the late winner impact how we think about how this game actually played out? We chat about our lack of attacking threat, but that was also true of Liverpool, and what the manager could have done differently, or at least sooner. There's discussion of Gabriel Martinelli, Noni Madueke and Viktor Gyokeres, the brilliant goal we conceded and where blame lies on that, before we answer listener questions about yet more injury woes after William Saliba went off with a sprained ankle sustained in the warm-up, whether Max Dowman should have come on ahead of Ethan Nwaneri, our corner taking, what remains of the transfer window, and lots more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
