The Thing About Arsenal

Lucy, Jim and Jonny have woken up to a two-day hangover, with the loss to Brighton still stinging. We wonder if Brighton’s approach represents a blueprint for how we can be got at and ask why our team of big personalities failed to react to getting whacked in the mouth early on.

Despite that, we decide it’s not time for panic stations and also dish out the passports for the crazy number of our players going out on international duty - so what can we hope for over the next three weeks?

Well, that didn't quite go to plan did it? Look on the bright side though, at least none of us were naive enough to have been discussing a potential Invincibles repeat on the Preview Show... Oh, wait.

Jim and Jonny are here to break down a baffling 3-0 away defeat to Brighton.

We’re going back to Highbury! Arsenal’s Carabao Cup exploits have earned them their first-ever away trip to Fleetwood. Today, Jim, Jonny and Shay have a much-needed conversation about Max Dowman's role this season.

But first, Brighton away. The lads explain why it could be a tough test at the Amex Stadium. Plus, Jonny and Shay reveal they have joined the Premier League Key Match Incidents Panel and we learn just how far kids will go to avoid playing for Manchester United.

Jim and Rory get off the sunloungers after Arsenal cruised past Ipsiwch Town in the Carabao Cup, where a host of youngsters seized their opportunity to shine. Marli Salmon by name/nature was excellent in defence, while Max Dowman tentatively reminded us that he might already be the best footballer anyone has ever seen anywhere.

Join us as we dive into plenty of stellar performances, assess how effective we were at playing through the lines quickly and realise that Mikel Arteta finally trusts every single member of this squad - except maybe one?

0-0. It’s an all too familiar scoreline for Arsenal over the past couple of years. However, are things a little different this time?

Today, Lucy and Rory are here to explain why we shouldn’t panic - not yet, anyway. Plus, we celebrate the return of Kyra Cooney-Cross and look ahead to Man United this weekend!
