In this episode, recorded in my London hotel room, I chat with Tom Canton after the high drama of Sunday against West Ham has died down a little bit, but the drama of the season and how it's being experienced continues unabated. We chat about that, the big injury to Ben White that has ended his season, and the likelihood of Jurrien Timber returning in time for the Champions League final. We also answer some questions about Mikel Arteta's use of Myles Lewis-Skelly, whether we might see rule changes at set-pieces next season, whether there's an anticlimactic way to win the league, deals with the universe, and lots more.

Please note: I'm not happy with the audio for this episode, so my apologies for that.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie look back at Saturday's 3-0 away win at Aston Villa. Tim and Jamie begin the podcast with the news of the departures of Codina and Pelova and they consider the legacy of Beth Mead. Then there is talk about the win at Villa, including the performance of Smilla Holmberg on the right, Russo going to another level this season and Renee Slegers' post-match explanation that she decided to loosen tactical instruction for this game and allow the players to express themselves. In part two, there are listener questions on how to replace a player like Mead, the apparent U-turn on McCabe's contract and on how much bigger the squad needs to be next season.

In this episode we look back at Sunday's dramatic 1-0 win away at West Ham. We chat about the bright start Arsenal made with numerous chances in the opening 20 minutes before momentum was halted by Ben White's injury and Mikel Arteta's decision to use Declan Rice at right-back – a decision which was hard to understand. We also discuss second half subs as he endeavoured to change things around, and the three key incidents in the final stages: the Mateus Fernandes chance, Leandro Trossard's goal, and the 'goal' West Ham scored which was ruled out for two obvious fouls on David Raya. There was a lot to go through for Arsenal fans at the time, and since with some frankly dishonest commentary and punditry, but in the end we took three vital points. We also answer listener questions about what we do at right-back if White's injury is bad, the collective effort being more important than any one individual, Zubimendi's reaction to being a sub who was subbed, and lots more.

In this episode I'm joined by first by Sam Dean to discuss the ins and outs of Arsenal's 1-0 win over Atletico Madrid last night, a result which sends us through to the Champions League final. We chat about the team selection and Mikel Arteta keeping faith with the team that beat Fulham, Atletico's tactical approach in the first half, Bukayo Saka's goal which ultimately won the tie, the way the second half played out, the perception of the two managers differing despite similarities in touchline behaviour, and how it felt like there was a real moment of communion between the team and fans as the final whistle went and the celebrations began.

There's also a quick chat with James as we react to a first CL final in 20 years and only the second in the club's history, what it all means and feels like from a fan perspective, how this might impact the rest of our Premier League campaign and more.

In this episode we look back at Saturday's very enjoyable 3-0 win over Fulham. It's one which certainly connected with the fans in the stadium, and we start by chatting about the reaction to the half-time whistle, before discussing an excellent first half with three goals, the impactful return of Bukayo Saka who got a goal and an assist, two goals and an excellent performance from Viktor Gyokeres, Leandro Trossard bringing some technical quality to the left, and how a handsome half-time lead and that kind of performance were just what everyone needed after some difficult experiences of late. There's also a big chat about Myles Lewis-Skelly in midfield and whether this opens a door for him after a frustrating season, a look ahead to the game tomorrow night and its importance, as well as listener questions about Declan Rice, William Saliba, who might play left-back against Atletico Madrid, and lots more.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim and Jamie rake over the coals of Arsenal's Champions League semi-final exit to Lyon on Saturday. They talk about not being able to live with Lyon's intensity in the first half, the VAR penalty decision, Arsenal's second half improvement, the substitutions and whether they expose depth issues with the squad at this level and there is some chat about the emotional response to the defeat. In part 2, Tim and Jamie ask your questions submitted on BlueSky, most of which were about squad building and the summer transfer window.
