Arseblog - The Arsecasts, Arsenal Podcasts

On this week's show I'm joined by Tim Stillman to talk about the 0-0 with Southampton, and the faltering title challenge. We talk about what can be done with midfield, the mounting pressure, the indifferent form of Theo Walcott, and lots more. There's some Amaury Bischoff PI and all the usual waffle too, as election fever mounts.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On this week's show James, who thankfully was not eaten by a bear, and I, look back on the 2-1 FA Cup win over Burnley, returns for Francis Coquelin and Alexis Sanchez, and a debut from new boy Mohamed Elneny. We also discuss Alex Iwobi's shins, our favourite John Terry moments, transfer deadline day and what might happen, and there are some spoilers for Oscar nominated movie The Revenant – bringing us back around to the bear-theme that permeates this show. Also, James tries not to eat a baby by mistaking it for delicious baked goods.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Time now for this week's Arsecast and today's show is a round table discussion with Goonerholic, The Man from East Lower, and Andrew Allen, taking stock of where we are right now and what lies ahead for the rest of the season. We discuss the last few games of January, Aaron Ramsey, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, new boy Mohamed Elneny, the players returning from injury, the threat of Leicester and the other teams in the title race, the closing of the transfer window, and lots more.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On this week's show we discuss the disappointing, frustrating 1-0 defeat to Chelsea. On the agenda, the red card issued to Per Mertesacker; could we have done more to prevent that situation developing; the decision to take off Olivier Giroud; and what it all means for our title hopes. As well as that we answer listener questions about Theo Walcott and the Captain's Armband (probably the title of his new book), Mohamed Elneny and why we haven't see him yet, what team we should pick for the FA Cup this weekend, and lots more.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

We also discuss Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, 10 years of Theo Walcott, and we look ahead to Sunday's Premier League clash with Chelsea. There's some TV fixture scheduling stuff, pants based trauma and all the usual waffle.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On this week's show we look back on the 0-0 draw with Stoke, the performances, and the display of Petr Cech who helped secure a point. There's the Aaron Ramsey chanting, Mesut Ozil's absence, and more on our midfield, before we answer listener's questions about taking quick free kicks, the baldness of referees, which players might be the best arm-wrestlers, as well as a seriously intense sauce based discussion which brings some AMAZING REVELATIONS.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On today's show, following up on the opening show of the season, I'm joined again by Ken Early from Second Captains.

On this week's show we look back the 1-0 win over Newcastle and discuss the performance, the three points when playing badly, Laurent Koscielny's goal, as well as the return of Serge Gnabry from his West Brom loan, perhaps to make room for Mathieu Debuchy's departure. We then answer listener questions about the transfer window, Arsene Wenger's sartorial choice, Aaron Ramsey's late miss against Newcastle, Ganbry's potential inclusion in the squad, some transfers that didn't go our way, and more.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On this week's show we look back at the last two games: the 4-0 defeat to Southampton and the 2-0 win over Bournemouth.

We then answer listener questions, many of which are about Ozil; there's some Mathieu Debuchy gossip; we wax lyrical about our favourite signing from a Premier League club; and uncover the hidden meaning of Ozil's goal celebration hand signal. It's all in there.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On this week's show festive edition of the show we look at the rather enjoyable 2-1 win over Man City last night, what it means for our title ambitions, the performances of Theo Walcott, Joel Campbell and Mesut Ozil, and all the other associated guff from the match. We then answer listeners questions about Laurent Koscielny, Petr Cech's headgear, injury problems and close the show with a number that should probably have us locked up for crimes against music, but if you can't forgive us terrible singing at Christmas when can you?  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On this week's show I provide my own theory as to Mourinho's sacking – and in typical Mourinho style he made a bollix of this too. I had recorded earlier in the day with Jim Campbell from The Football Ramble, and we'd had a good natter about the not-so-special one and his ongoing strife at Chelsea. Then he gets canned and renders all that glorious audio redundant. Still, we chat Leicester, Man City, Aaron Ramsey, Mesut Ozil, transfers and much more. We're also at home with Abramovic; there's a chance for you to win goodies from Savile Rogue; some Christmas present recommendations; and all the usual waffle too  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On this week's show James and I discuss the 3-1 win over Sunderland at the weekend, looking at the performance, the line-up and how that might have affected the way we played. There's praise for Petr Cech, Mesut Ozil and Aaron Ramsey, and some discussion of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain after his first start since the 2-1 win over Everton in October. We then answer listener questions about potential January transfer moves, Hector Bellerin's recent form, who should take our penalties in the absence of Santi Cazorla, and pledge to make a podcast every day for a year if we find a kindly benefactor, or an Indecent Proposal style one, we're not that fussy.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In this injury hit episode I twang some ankle ligaments, wrench a hamstring, pull a calf (muscle, you filthy minded swines), but thankfully have no groin problems to discuss. I chat to the man from East Lower about which of our players will live and die, and who might actually be able to play football before we talk about the inevitability of January transfer moves. There's all the usual waffle, and a chance for you to win goodies from our friends at Savile Rogue.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

On this week's show James and I look back at the 1-1 draw with Norwich, and the injuries sustained by Alexis, Santi Cazorla and Laurent Koscielny.

On this week's show we discuss the weekend defeat to West Brom and the injury to Francis Coquelin which has caused much angst – even if the duration of his absence has not yet been confirmed. Was the loss a hammer blow for our title chances, or is a damaged Coq going to cause us more problems in the long-run? We also answer listener questions about Mikel Arteta, how we might replace Coquelin in the short-term, our constant injury problems, syrup sweat and rabid squirrels. It's all in there for you today.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
