Join Holly, Stef and Chris as we bask in the glory of our season best performance against Sporting, before looking forward to the game at the London Stadium on Saturday evening.

Will Arteta rotate, are West Ham a threat, will Stef predict a win? We discuss who our best right back is, Liverpool's long term prospects and concern for Pep.  There's the usual quiz,  plus a bonus quickie: can you name our goal scorers from last season's 6-0 romp in East London?

Chris & Stef reflect on a relatively comfortable 3-0 win at home v Forest.

Despite a few team changes, we turned in a cohesive, high-energy performance and scored 3 cracking goals.

So, have we turned a corner?

Has Mikel got his mojo, as well as his captain, back?

And who exactly controls our stadium jumbotrons?

There's a look ahead to Sporting Lisbon on Tuesday who are in fine form and boast a striker we've been closely linked with...

In the absence of Holly, Producer Chris & Stef are running the show. We celebrate the last international break of the year - although this was a strangely welcome one.

We look at where we are at after 11 PL games, fringe players' form and how we might cope with the next 7 supposedly 'easy' games - can we look forward to a relatively fully fit squad and some consistency in performances?

There are team and score predictions for Saturday's game before we offer a few creative ideas on how to cram 80,000 into the Emirates as well as the obligatory Forest/Arsenal quiz.

In this bonus, CLASSICS episode of the pod, Holly and Stef catch up with Arsenal fan royalty, Dave Seager, as he talks us through his latest Arsenal book, 'Welcome to the Goonerverse'. We also chat about how Dave first fell in love with The Arsenal, his inspiration behind the book and his take on the current season.

A thoroughly enjoyable chat I'm sure you'll all enjoy!

Welcome to the Goonerverse' is available to pre-order here:

Join Holly, Stef and Chris for our 'on the whistle' reaction to our draw at Stamford Bridge. Was it one point gained, or two points dropped? Was that our strongest starting eleven? Odegaard returned and immediately reminded us of what we've been missing, not that we needed reminding. There's talk about international breaks, warm weather training camps, Martinelli, Trossard, Timber's awesome throw in, and lots of other things I've since forgotten about. But it's well worth a watch & listen, honest.

Join Holly, Stef and Chris for another riveting chat about how great Arsenal are at the moment. Okay, so things aren't brilliant, but, Odegaard is back, so that's reason enough for optimism. Chris and Stef run the rule over our defeat in the San Siro, whilst we all attempt to second guess Arteta's team selection for Sunday's crunch game at Stamford Bridge. There's also a quiz - name Edu's top 10 most expensive signings - which the boys nailed impressively this week.

Join Holly, Stef and Chris as we attempt to make sense of our current form. What needs to change to get us back to some winning, free flowing football? Is it a personnel or systemic issue? Is Odegaard the answer? Can we trace these issues back to our summer transfer business? There's also some inspired, puntastic, cheesy chat from Stef that's worth the admission price alone.

Join Holly, Stef and Chris as we look back at our cruise past Preston, and look ahead to our revenge mission at St James' Park this weekend. Plenty of praise going around for Nwaneri, but will he get a start against Newcastle? Jesus back on the scoresheet, but will he start against the Geordies? Is Gabriel fit to play? Who gets the nod in midfield? Finally, quiz time asks you to name the 5 players to have turned out for both teams in the premier league era - the boys nailed this one!

Join Holly, Stef and Chris as we take a look back at the Liverpool game. Two points dropped or a point gained? Is this another example of an overly cautious response to some in-game adversity? Or was it a resilient point against the table toppers? Saka, Rice, Partey, Merino all come in for deserved praise, more harsh opinions ventured for Trossard and Martinelli. We close with a brief look ahead to Preston in the cup on Wednesday - can you name the starting 11 for the last time we played them, back in 2017? Neither can we as it turns out!

Join Holly, Stef and Chris as we attempt to muster some enthusiasm for the win over Shakhtar - Partey, Martinelli and Jesus earn some praise, but that's about it. There's growing frustration at Arteta's refusal to rotate, whilst simultaneously complaining about fatigue.

We also look ahead to Liverpool's visit on Sunday with some degree of anxiety - especially poor Stef.

And finally, can you name the six players to have represented both clubs in the Premier league?
