English Premier League Match Week 4. PGMOL Shenanigans. Carabao Cup Round 3.

On this episode, Eric, Kevin, and Matt discuss What Ha-Happened Was on the away trip to Sunderland. Would Xhaka get a yellow card? Can Saka ditch his finishing woes and get one over the line? Would Sunderland be a difficult atmosphere? This was a fun match to recap and the guys break down and answer all of these questions and much, much, … much more.

Find out if we have a new points leader in The Reckoning. On The B-Side, we measure our words, or do we(?), regarding comments made by a former PGMOL referee Mike Dean, and the impacts of the revelations he shared on (of all places) Jamie Vardy’s podcast. Finally, It’s On, where we preview the upcoming Soda/League Cup match against Ipswich Town.

Plus you’ll love this week’s One, Two, Three.

Pro Ref (Professional Game Referees) - What a joke.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women’s podcast presented by Stateside Gooners, Matt talks about the opening day win over a pesky Brighton team. There were 4 new starters for Arsenal in this match and each had a good start to their Arsenal careers. Georgia Stanway looks like she’s been an Arsenal player her whole career.

On this episode, Eric and Matt talk about the first away trip for Arsenal in the Champions League against Napoli. Arsenal were dominant, so many shots, so much xG. You’d think Arsenal scored a lot, but you would be wrong. Big chances missed. But the goal Arsenal scored was, well, it was the kind of goal Matt likes power and pinged off the post.

There is a preview for the away match at Sunderland on Saturday, we get to see our old friend Xhaka.

Make sure to stick around for the three quick things at the end. There’s a bit about Italy that is quite interesting.

On this Arsenal Women’s podcast presented by Stateside Gooners, Matt talks about the roster re-shaping. When we last broadcasted, Arsenal reported the departures of Beth Mead, Katie McCabe, Victoria Pelova, and Laia Codina. How would the recruiting go, where would our beloved Beth Mead and Katie McCabe wind up? Learn the answers in this podcast. I think we are one short and you’ll have to listen to the end to hear just what I think that missing one is.

A recording by Stateside Gooners about Arsenal vs Como and the Community Shield preview between Arsenal and Team 115 Charges in the 'ultimate' preseason trophy game. (?)

I’ll keep this simple.

Preseason wasn’t great, but it was fun seeing Cesc back at the Emirates, right?

In the last game of the preseason, the Community Shield, we have a chance to win a trophy from Team 115 Charges. That’d be fun…

Sure, we talk a bit about that Como game, but that wasn’t a game we wanted to spend a lot of time on, so we didn’t.

We did spend more time on the preview. Tell us how we did, and what you think.
