    Episode 786 – Carl Jenkinson

    Welcome to another episode of the Arsecast – the Arsenal podcast. In this episode I’m joined by former Arsenal player Carl Jenkinson for a chat about his life and career. He’s just back from Australia, so we begin with his thoughts on playing the A-League, before turning our attention to his time with the Gunners.…

    Friday bits: Olise, the Euros, Xabi Alonso

    Hello, happy Friday to you all. There’s not much going on, so this could well be a short blog. May I just say first and foremost I thoroughly dislike the stories about Michael Olise and Chelsea. I note other clubs have been reported to have interest in him, but our name has not been mentioned.…

    Emile Smith Quo

    In the 2021-22 season, Emile Smith Rowe started 21 Premier League games for Arsenal and came on as a substitute on 12 occasions, playing 1,921 minutes in total. He jockeyed for position on the left wing with Gabriel Martinelli and it was a battle that, though reasonably even, he was winning. Martinelli played 1,860 minutes…

    The three strikers AI Chat-PCP says we should sign

    I asked a popular AI chat type thing which forwards Arsenal should go for in the current transfer window, following the brutal rejection from Benjamin Sesko which has left the club on its knees and on the brink of relegation even though the new season hasn’t started yet. As we know, this technology is flawless,…

    Sesko says no, the world keeps on turning

    Morning all. The main story to kick us off today is that Benjamin Sesko has decided to stay at Disgustingly Sweet Energy Drink Leipzig, with the intention to sign a new deal which will obviously include different parameters for his departure. His current release clause would then be invalid. From the player’s side, you can…

    Plenty in the departure lounge, but how much will we get?

    Morning. I’m sure many of you have listened by now, but yesterday we did our predictions on spending and income on the Arsecast Extra. This is now a tradition for each transfer window and it’s fair to say we’re usually wide of the mark – at least in terms of income. I think spending is…

    Arsecast Extra Episode 588 – 10.06.2024

    Welcome to another Arsecast Extra, the Arsenal podcast, with myself and James from @gunnerblog. In this episode we do a weekend catch-up before talking about William Saliba and France, Bukayo Saka and England in the context of some of the back pages – plus a couple of questions about whether not he could/should play in…

    Big Willy

    Morning all. It looks like William Saliba had a good game for France in a 0-0 draw with Canada. Whether a 0-0 draw with Canada is a good result for France, that’s another question, but it’s definitely not a 1-0 loss to Iceland, I suppose. The other question is whether or not a performance like…

    Sunday round-up: Martinelli scores, Douglas Luiz linked

    Hello. Some quick Sunday bits. First, a goal for Brazil for Gabriel Martinelli as they warmed up for the Copa America with a game against Mexico – watch it here. Our man put them 2-0 up. It went to 2-2, before a late Endrick goal provided some Euphoria as he made it 3-2. It’s fair…

  • Player of the season

    Player of the season

    Morning all. Not a lot going on this morning, but Arsenal’s Player of the Season – as voted by supporters – was revealed to be Martin Odegaard. It’s the second successive season he has won it, and I don’t think anyone can argue that he doesn’t deserve it. He’s such an example to the rest…
