It’s the international break, but there’s still plenty to cover.
Gav, Ells and Jus round up how Arsenal’s players performed for their countries, celebrate Saka’s latest England milestone, and highlight Ethan Nwaneri’s U21 performance.

The lads dive deep into Zubimendi’s Guardian interview — what he’s learning under Arteta, how the Premier League’s tempo is testing him, and why he’s quickly become a key piece of Arsenal’s midfield puzzle.

There’s also good news on the injury front with Havertz, Hincapié and Ødegaard all nearing returns, plus thoughts on how Mikel might shuffle the midfield ahead of Fulham.

In Part Two, Jack Wilshere’s appointment at Luton gets the full treatment — the reality of English managers starting lower down, the Lampard & Gerrard comparisons, and what it means for Arsenal’s youth pathway.

Finally, the team ranks the big summer transfers across the Premier League, reacts to The Athletic’s “Most Impactful Signings” list, and call out a few eyebrow-raising inclusions.
