Welcome to another Arsecast Extra, the Arsenal podcast, with myself and James from @gunnerblog. In this episode we look back at Saturday’s 3-2 win over Bournemouth. We discuss the uncharacteristic error from Gabriel which gave the home side the lead, then examine his response and what that says about him as a player and a […]

Morning all. It was quite an interesting day of Premier League action yesterday. I chose not to watch Man City play Chelsea, in much the same way I would choose not to nail my bollocks to a plank of wood, and put something else on the TV instead. At one my phone started buzzing, and […]

Match report – Player ratings – Arteta reaction – Video Arsenal made it five wins in a row in the Premier League yesterday evening, with Declan Rice the man of the hour as his two goals propelled us to a 3-2 win over Bournemouth. In the preview yesterday, I urged caution over his involvement if […]

Morning all. Arsenal are in Premier League action this evening, facing Bournemouth away from home, and with the opportunity to extend our lead at the top of the Premier League table. Mikel Arteta was vague on Declan Rice’s availability, saying the swelling hadn’t gone down on his knee yet, and with Liverpool on the horizon […]

My slightly lukewarm take is that the Arsenal squad is currently too big. I strongly suspect that the club probably know this on some level but have heavily stacked their deck for this season because they are making a bet on winning one of the big trophies. I also suspect they realise players will likely […]

Morning all. 2026 began well for Arsenal without Arsenal having to do anything. Man City went to Sunderland, and with all due respect to Granit Xhaka’s side, I expected the visitors to come away with all three points. Instead, they had to settle for just one, which gives us a 4 point lead at the […]

A game of two halves? Not quite. Arsenal finished 2025 with a resounding 4-1 win over Aston Villa that has, in wider discussion, largely been broken into a strong first half from the visitors and a dominant second half from the Premier League leaders. Mikel Arteta didn’t seem to see it like that, though, and […]

Good morning everyone, and welcome to 2026. Here’s a quick New Year’s Day blog for you. Things are pretty quiet from an Arsenal perspective, which is just fine by me. We did our work on Tuesday, and did it very well, so for today eyes will be elsewhere a little bit. Man City are in […]

Welcome to another episode of the Arsecast – the Arsenal podcast. In this episode I’m joined by Phil Costa to look back on Tuesday evening’s 4-1 win over Aston Villa. After a frustrating first half in many ways, Arsenal turned the screw to take all three points with goals from Gabriel, Martin Zubimendi, Leandro Trossard […]
