  • Terminator '22: Deadline Day

    Arsenal continue to sit top of the Premier League table with 12 points from 12.

    A win over Fulham was more guile than style but what does that say about Mikel Arteta's side at present?

    To discuss the 2-1 victory, as well as look ahead to the visit of Aston Villa and the impending transfer deadline day, Sam is in the hosting chair and is joined by Kaya Kaynak of football.london and PA Media's Mark Mann-Bryans.

  • From Papa John's to Tequila

    Arsenal are top of the Premier League.

    Three wins from three games, morale is high and performances are impressive.

    Mark is joined by the Telegraph's Sam Dean and the debuting Dan Matthews of the Daily Mail to look back on another comfortable victory, analysing individual performances and attempting not to keep bursting into song (SALIBA!)

    Guess The Gooner also returns in style.

  • …And it’s live! (Kind of)

    Our 88th episode and the first time we've ever recorded in-person. You lucky, lucky lot!

    Live (in a fashion) from the back of London Colney Retail Park having just been to Costa, Mark is joined by the Athletic's Art de Roche, Kaya Kaynak of football.london and the Evening Standard's Simon Collings.

    They discuss Mikel Arteta's evolution from his first game as manager of Arsenal, whether he could/should change his team at Bournemouth, the form of Aaron Ramsdale, Bukayo Saka, and whether Simon has pulled off a coup by bringing Granit Xhaka into his FPL team.

  • All or Nothing: Arsenal Beat

    A fine start to the season for Arsenal means an overly-positive return to action for the Arsenal Beat regulars.

    Mark is joined by Sam Dean of the Telegraph and the Evening Standard's Simon Collings to look back on the Leicester victory, examine any negatives, discuss transfer business and what they have made of the All or Nothing documentary on Amazon Prime.

  • Arteta's Grafting Boots

    Transfer bombshells, dumpings, flirting, new relationships, hooking up with the ex.

    Arsenal's summer of Love Island is discussed by Mark as he is joined by David Ornstein of the Athletic and the Telegraph's Sam Dean.

    The trio then answer some listener questions as the Arsenal Beat returns for a third season.

  • Comfy up on That Fence, Charlie?

    Another ugly win at the weekend could see Arsenal accomplish something beautiful on Thursday night.

    The 2-1 victory over Leeds might not have been a sight for sore eyes but it was enough to see Mikel Arteta's side open up a four-point gap in fourth place.

    As luck would have it, a trip to Tottenham is up next, a gorgeous prospect for Arsenal fans could see them seal a Champions League return in their neighbours back yard.

    Mark is joined by Charles Watts of Goal and the Guardian's Nick Ames to look back on the Leeds win and preview a massive north London derby, while (two) of our panel offer their predictions for Thursday's clash.

  • Making a Point - Arsenal's WSL Season Review

    We’ve had black cat superstitions and asking his players to think like squirrels, but despite the best efforts of Jonas Eidevall, Arsenal Women ended the season without a trophy.

    To take a look back at the campaign, Molly is joined by The Athletic’s Art de Roche, Suzy Wrack from the Guardian and, making her Arsenal Beat debut, Kathryn Batte from the Daily Mail.

    The panel discuss Eidevall's impact in his first season, how he has interacted with the media and battled with Emma Hayes, how Arsenal can close that small gap next season, training with Academy players to be better in Europe, the future of Vivianne Miedema and Arsenal's Lionesses.

  • Holding Out for a Hero
    As we enter May with Arsenal favourites for a top-four space, Mikel Arteta's side continue to do the business in the race to return to the Champions League.
    A 2-1 win at West Ham on Sunday kept those aspirations in Arsenal's own hands as their small squad once again came through.
    Simon is joined by Charles Watts of Goal and the Athletic's Art de Roche to look back over the win at the London Stadium and reminisce on just what Arsenal have been missing without Champions League football.
    We wrap things up with a round of Guess the Gooner, safe in the knowledge Sam can't lay claim to winning this one (or can he?)

  • Nuno Tavares and the Chaos Emeralds

    While Manchester City and Liverpool were giving Arsenal a taste of what they are chasing this season and Manchester United and Chelsea played out a turgid 1-1 draw, Mikel Arteta's side have been preparing for a tough trip to West Ham.

    The Hammers themselves were in action on Thursday night, losing 2-1 to Eintracht Frankfurt in the first leg of their Europa League semi-final.

    To look ahead to Sunday's clash at the London Stadium Mark is joined by Sam Dean of the Telegraph and the Athletic's Art de Roche.

    We will also wrap things up in time-honoured tradition with a quickfire round of Guess the Gooner and a photo finish.

  • Wrecked-It for Ralf

    Another big win on Saturday saw Arsenal move two points clear in the race for Champions League football, while simultaneously damaging the same aspirations of long-time rivals Manchester United.

    Are Mikel Arteta's side now favourites to land a top-four finish and who has been inspiring the recent upturn in form at just the right time of the season?

    Simon hosts and aims to answer those questions and more beside as he is joined by Adrian Kajumba of the Daily Mail and football.london's Kaya Kaynak to look back on the 3-1 victory.

    Our 50th show of the current season would not be complete without a game of Guess the Gooner to round things off.
