In this episode we start with some Club World Cup chat before turning our attention to the Champions League final at the weekend. PSG were worthy winners and play exciting football, but can you separate that from the money, and is there so much going on in football to obscure that conversation? Then there's discussion of Joan Garcia and how Arsenal solve the number 2 goalkeeper issue this summer, before we take questions on adding a creative midfielder to the squad this summer, the big striker choice and how important it is for Mikel Arteta and Andrea Berta to get right, Edu's apparent influence at Nottingham Forest, signing younger players, and lots more.

In this episode I'm joined by Lewis Ambrose for a special player ratings conversation.

In this episode I'm joined by Kaya Kaynak to chat primarily about Arsenal's upcoming transfer business. We discuss the obvious need up front, and the potential timing of any new signing in that position, but also about the need to bring something different to the left side of the attack. There's analysis of what we get currently from Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Martinelli, as well as which would be the obvious candidate to make way for a new player, as well as thoughts on midfield and defensive additions, Ethan Nwaneri's role next season, the big jump for Max Dowman, and lots more.

In this episode we look back at a busy weekend in London, starting with our live event at Union Chapel and Mikel Arteta's appearance at it, followed by analysis of our 1-0 win over Newcastle on Sunday. After a difficult first half in which David Raya saved our bacon more than once, Declan Rice's second half goal was enough for three points. We discuss the turnaround, the importance of winning for finishing in second place and ensuring Champions League football for next season, as well as the manager's post-game comments on the pitch and the message he was keen to send. Then we take listener questions about a big summer ahead in the transfer market and how up front the club have been about what they want to do, the need for greater rotation from Arteta next season, Kieran Tierney's Arsenal career after he made his final home appearance, and lots more.
