Sitting pretty atop the premier league after a gruelling seven games. Still a long way to go, but it's a nice feeling all the same. Join Holly, Stef and Chris as we chat about our season so far, with a focus on the routine 2-0 home win against West Ham. We discuss Arteta ripping the handbrake off with his team selection, and whether it worked or not. We bemoan Odegaard's injury luck, praise Gyokeres' workrate and laud Rice, Timber and Zubimendi for their all round brilliance. We also acknowledge Saka and Arteta landmarks and attempt to remember Arteta's very first Arsenal team. Please enjoy and share! Please follow & rate where you get your pods.

Ep. 177 - Olympiacos Review, West Ham Preview
The scoreline and match stats might point to a routine 2-0 win, but it didn't always feel like that, especially in the second half. Join Holly and Stef as we talk through the fluency of the first half, and then the more stunted performance of the second. Odegaard was at his creative best, Gyokeres did everything but score and yet another goal for a substitute. We also look ahead to West Ham at the weekend, and wonder just what starting eleven Arteta will go for. Who would you start with? Enjoy and share.Please follow & rate where you get your pods.

Ep. 176 - Newcastle Away Review - All's Well That Ends Well
Was this the pivotal weekend the narrative writers are claiming it was? We can't say for sure, but what we can do is enjoy what was a very very dramatic way to win a game we absolutely deserved to win. Join Holly, Stef and Chris as we look back over the key incidents of an oft times chaotic match. Eze's selection, his chances, the penalty, VAR, Trossard, Gyokeres, Gabby, Gabby again, Rice, Timber, Odegaard, Merino, Gabby again again. Plus, we have Stef's account of being in the ground, pre-match buzz and the eventual limbs in the away section. Oh, and we quickly preview the Olympiakos Champions League game this Wednesday at the Grove with team and score predictions.Enjoy!Please follow & rate where you get your pods.
