  • Chaos factor returns in clinical fashion
    Dec 23 2024
    James McNicholas and Adrian Clarke join Ian Stone to reflect on Arsenal's 5-1 victory at Selhurst Park. It was the second time this week the Gunners have beaten Palace, with Gabriel Jesus on fire again. It would have been a perfect evening but for Bukayo Saka's hamstring injury that forced him off in the first half. The panel discuss Mikel Arteta's options in Bukayo's absence, as we head into the busiest part of the season. Plus, Newcastle to come in the Carabao Cup and a look back at the best moments of 2024.

  • It might be Christmas, but Jesus is resurrected
    Dec 19 2024
    James McNicholas and Adrian Clarke join Ian Stone to look back on a Cup win against Crystal Palace. Gabriel Jesus owned the night scoring a hattrick to send Arsenal through to the semi finals of the Carabao Cup. After a terrible first half, Arteta brought on Martin Odegaard who ignited the match and brought it under Arsenal's control. Plus it's been five years since Mikel Arteta took the reins at the club. We discuss how the club has changed in that time and what is needed to push on further. Clue: it's silver and sparkly. And we hear your suggestions for some half time music. *If you're on Spotify you can vote on your favourite Host: Ian Stone Guests: Adrian Clarke, James McNicholas Producer: Abi Paterson Learn more about your ad choices.
