In the latest episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Pippa chat with host of the Box to Box WSL podcast Alex Ibaceta about the Gunners' Champions League tie against PSG on Saturday night, including players to watch, predictions and the panel ask who can stop Lyon from winning their 5th consecutive Champions League title.

Then Tim chats to French women's football journalist Tara Britton from L'Equipiere to get the PSG perspective. There is discussion about whether they can break Lyon's domestic stranglehold, assessment of their summer business and key players and likely tactics for the Arsenal game.

On this week's show I'm joined by Clive Palmer to discuss the needs of the Arsenal squad going into this transfer window. We cover all areas - goalkeeper, defence, midfield, and attack – to try and work out what we might do, who might be vulnerable to a departure, and the kinds of players Mikel Arteta wants to bring to the club. We start though with some thoughts on the arrival of Willian who has signed a three year deal with the club after his contract at Chelsea expired. All that, and more.

This week's Arsecast is a day early, but comes in response to yesterday's club statement regarding the 55 redundancies being sought. I'm joined by Philippe Auclair to discuss that, the framing of the statement as something necessary to keep team investment going, social and moral responsibility from the owners KSE, the timing of the communication, the fact our Head of Recruitment is being made redundant, how the players feel about his after being given assurances their pay cuts would save jobs, the executive structures, and lots more. We finish with a positive chat about Mikel Arteta and his impact at the end.

On today's show we look back on our record extending 14th FA Cup, following the 2-1 win over Chelsea at Wembley on Saturday. We chat about the excitement of the occasion, from watching at home to being at the match; the way it all played out from Chelsea's opener to Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's winner and beyond; our tactical approach, the game plan, some good fortune along the way, and ultimately yet another FA Cup win. After that, we discuss what it means in this crazy season to have ended with success, the job Mikel Arteta has done and the impact he's made since taking the job in December, what the future holds for the club and certain players, how European football has an impact, and we also relive some of the best/funniest moments from the day along with LOTS more in this almost two hour long episode.

Also, a big thanks to all our listeners for being here throughout this long, trying season, and we're so happy we've been able to end it on a high note for everyone!

This week's show starts with a recap of what has been a truly bizarre Premier League season, one which is ending on Sunday against Watford. From Laurent Koscielny's no-show to £72m on Pepe, Unai Emery's departure, three managers in one campaign, 'super' agents, Mikel Arteta saving lives, a European exit, pay cuts, lockdown and a chance to end it all with a trophy. All that and more, before I chat with Lewis Ambrose about creativity in the team and the current tactical set-up, how recruitment should be focused this summer, selling a goalkeeper, selling a striker, Arteta's long-term vision and lots more. Plus, you can win one of the brand new home shirts in an easy to enter competition.
