The Thing About Arsenal

Four expected goals, one real-life goal but boy was it a good one! Laura and Jonny are here to react to a winning start to the Champions League for Arsenal against Napoli.

We take some time to celebrate the brand-new Martin Ødegaard this season. Plus, we got our first look at Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyökeres in the starting lineup and Jonny labels one of our players the best bouncer in London.

The WSL is back! Thankfully, Arsenal successfully lifted the curse that is Brighton away. Despite this, we weren’t at our absolute best, but Laura and Rory saw plenty to be optimistic about.

Elsewhere, we celebrate one of our sleeper agents taking points off Chelsea and cautiously review London City Lionesses' opening day win. Plus, we look ahead to a vicious Champions League draw.

Laura, Jonny and Shay are here for a level-headed next day review of our brilliant win over Chelsea, which may or may not start with maniacal laughter and may or may not end with Shay accusing Emi Martínez of having a bad Uber rating.

We discuss Martin Ødegaard's brilliance in more detail and Ezri Konsa's debut, just after leaving Arsenal a 5-star review on TripAdvisor too. Plus, Mikel Arteta's transfer shortlist gets leaked, more club crest chat, and Jonny's now got regrets about one of his Arsenal tattoos...

It’s Sunday night, Arsenal have beaten Chelsea at home and Laura and Jonny are here with a brand-new match reaction. Just take a moment to enjoy this feeling.

Do we still underestimate how good this team are? We reflect on that. Plus, Jonny has a theory about Morgan Rogers and a new nickname for the Arsenal bench.

One thing is for sure this weekend: we simply cannot lose to Chelsea. Laura, Jim and Rory are here to contemplate a threatening Chelsea side rocking up at the Emirates, albeit with an absolutely awful nickname for their front three.

We also consider if we should boo Morgan Rogers and Emi Martinez (probably), plus a listener gets in touch about Arsenal's badge. Is it time for a redesign? Answers on a postcard, please: show@thingaboutarsenal.com.

On this week's Another Thing About Arsenal, Luke, Jim and Rory gave their definitive verdicts on this summer's transfer window, taking a close look at the defence, midfield and - of course - the frontline. Jim explains why he feels like it's been nothing short of a disaster in some areas, while Luke isn't so convinced. There is certainly A LOT to mull over...

The 2026/27 season is here and we’re analysing the enemy. Who could ruin our title charge this year? Or are we winning it all? On that note, Rory can’t resist the urge to boo a London rival. He swears he’s not normally like this.

Elsewhere, it’s AWFC predictions time! We’re talking top scorer, best new signing, unsung hero and more. Plus, we look ahead to a tantalising, possibly cursed, opening WSL fixture.

Luke, Lucy and Jim bounce into the studio after a spirited victory against Aston Villa. They discuss that puzzling left-hand side and just how excited we are by Bruno Guimarães' brief cameo. We also bid farewell to a raft of players, as some long expected departures finally happen – and ask the crucial question: are we going to sign anyone by tonight?

Jim makes the case for a deadline day swoop for Karim Benzema. Just to see what it would feel like.

**Unfortunately due to technical issues, we have been unable to upload the first part of today's match reaction pod. But there's still plenty to catch up on from Luke and Jonny! We hope you enjoy.**

It was a proper Monday night scrap, but Arsenal came out on the other side of it with all three points at Villa Park! Luke and Jonny discuss an intriguing game that showed both our incredible strength, and areas where we still need to improve. Well, there are 25 hours still to go...

Will Julián Alvarez come to Arsenal? Will he even pick up the phone to Mikel Arteta? Who knows but... do we want him to? Luke, Jim and Rory ponder on that question and all of the saga's complexities as the rumours continue to mount.

But first, there's the small matter of Unai Emery's Aston Villa on Monday night! We're excited for more of the same after Coventry City, and we might get our first look at Bruno Guimarães in an Arsenal shirt in the Premier League. One thing is for sure though: the Benaissance is well and truly under way.

Luke and Jim watched Thierry Henry open some balls and David Villa hit his big button and – voilá – after all the usual nonsense UEFA fanfare, Arsenal got their Champions League draw. And it's looking pretty tricky...

Join us for our reaction, some unexpected Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? trivia, and Luke reminds us of a legendary AFTV clip.

It’s been a winning week for Arsenal! Laura and Rory are here to look back on our preseason victories over Paris FC and Manchester City, where there were two late winners and plenty of new faces got minutes off the bench. Now, with Charlton up next in the final pre-season friendly, what do they still need to show?

Elsewhere, Renée Slegers seems to be happy with her squad, but with the transfer window closing soon, Rory can't help but feel there may still be some work to do. At least Arsenal’s new set-piece coach Nikita Runnacles could bring some joy...

We are so back. Arsenal cruised to victory over Coventry City on Friday night – and then (almost) everyone proceeded to slip up.

Laura and Luke are joined by Shay Gunner for a gleeful review of Bukayo Saka's sharpness, Myles Lewis-Skelly looking even more at home in midfield after some fine fermentation last season, and Christos Tzolis' unexpected homecoming in Brugge. Plus, Shay has some #breakingnews regarding Julián Alvarez.

The Premier League Champions were back at the Emirates and it was one of the most stress-free evenings watching Arsenal in recent memory.

Luke and Jim are here to bring you the rundown of what it was like inside the stadium. Elsewhere, we continue to be impressed by Christos Tzolis. Speaking of which, Luke has advice for anyone wanting to sing his new chant.

It's finally here. The new season is upon us! Laura, Jonny and Luke are feeling uniquely confident ahead of the big curtain-raiser.

Elsewhere, Luke makes his feelings (too) clear about Frank Lampard, we get excited about the prospect of the shackles coming off this season (or will they?), and the future of Myles Lewis-Skelly is finally confirmed at last.

Arsenal kick off pre-season proper this weekend, and with the WSL creeping ever closer, Lucy and Rory sit down to try to piece together what our starting XI might look like.

What areas are we still short? Where do we need experience? And how do we ensure that Alessia Russo doesn’t end up playing as a 10 AGAIN?

The start of the season is just days away and so we're here to answer the big questions. Which Arsenal player is most likely to bite someone? What would we rob from the merch shop? And will Mikel Arteta appear on a questionable self-improvement podcast?

If anyone’s yet to get excited about the new season, Luke and Rory have got you covered - because they're on the pod straight after Arsenal win another trophy!

The vibes were bumping after twenty-odd seconds when Riccardo Calafiori finished off a lovely move and the boys never looked back. Join us as we recap a great win that had it all: another impressive Christos Tzolis performance, flashes of the brilliant Martin Ødegaard of old and an interesting glimpse into how the midfield might fit together once everyone gets up and running.

The Community Shield is here! Whether Arsenal are ready is another question...

Luke, Jonny and Jim look back on our pre-season and who will likely start against Man City in a game that still feels one week too soon. We also discuss Marli Salmon – how much can he truly been used? – and Jim argues why a defender in this transfer window is actually more important than a left-winger. Has he been Arteta brainwashed?

We also have a much-needed conversation about player sales in light of the Myles Lewis-Skelly reports this week. Why was this even being considered? Was this even being considered? And when will Arsenal make some proper money on a player sale?!

The fixtures are out and the countdown to the return of the WSL is on! Laura and Rory are here to look ahead to a brutal start to the season for Arsenal. Could the first five weeks make or break the Renéeissance?

Elsewhere, after a busy start, it’s all quiet on the transfer front, but what business do we still need to do? Plus, what could this season look like for Katie Reid and Michelle Agyemang?

We soon turn our attention to other transfer window needs, with one disturbing transfer rumour sending the whole studio into meltdown. Plus, we celebrate the return of football to the Emirates - quietly ignoring we lost - and we also hear more about Joseph’s love for the club and how his Arsenal journey began!

Laura is back with Jonny and Jim! And just in time for the news we all feared.

They discuss who the club should now have in its sights after Vinícius Júnior signs the dotted line at Real Madrid, which – don't worry – we get appropriately petty about. To continue this summer's rollercoaster, we also get very excited about Bruno Guimarães as his move finally reaches its endgame.

And then there's the small, smouldering matter of Cristian Romero. What on earth is going on...

What's that? Another trophy? Champions of Costa Brava, you'll never sing that.

Luke, Jonny and Jim discuss our first pre-season game against Girona, which featured Max Dowman doing some incredible things, a makeshift defence and Win the dog's new arch nemesis.

We also catch up on the latest in the transfer market, as Christian Nørgaard heads to Everton and the Bruno Guimarães saga takes yet another turn.

Jim and Luke are back in the studio the day before pre-season kicks off – and we’re delighted to be joined by broadcaster and Arsenal diehard, Daniyal Khan!

First though, we’ve had a real falling out about this Vinícius Junior deal. Daniyal and Luke are already ordering Viní shirts but Jim’s halfheartedly pumping the brakes. WHY WON’T YOU BELIEVE, JIM?!

Plus: massively overanalysing the tunes playing in training, what we’d like to see from our pre-season matches and a thorough dive into Daniyal’s deep love for Arsenal & his journey to working with the club today.

Luke, Jim and Jonny arrive at the studio absolutely BUZZING after news broke that Arsenal are exploring a move to sign Vinícius Júnior. As in, Real Madrid superstar and one of the world’s best players, Vinícius Júnior. Wait, is this really happening?!

In other Brazilian transfer talk, the Bruno Guimarães rumours roll on - so we’re cooking up our own clickbait headlines to get that deal over the line.

Arsenal have been making big moves in the transfer market and frankly the social media team must be exhausted. Does Win need an agent? If so, Rory’s keen for the gig.

He and Laura are on hand to break down who’s been brought in since the window opened, where they’ll fit and how Arsenal’s business compares to our rivals’.

Plus, is Georgia Stanway changing Rory’s thoughts on tattoos? And Laura asks: is it acceptable to buy an Alexia Putellas shirt now she’s at London City Lionesses?

Welcome back, champions.

Laura, Jim and Luke catch up on all the latest news, starting with the departure of Leandro Trossard. Is he a cult hero or a bona fide legend?

Elsewhere, Jim explains why Christos Tzolis could be the new Freddie Ljungberg and Laura reveals why Morgan Rogers has got under her skin.

Plus, what do Declan Rice and Glastonbury have in common and a polite message for Gabriel: SIT DOWN AND HAVE A REST MAN FOR GOD'S SAKE!

Five days on and we are still revelling in the joy of Arsenal’s victory parade. So much so that the fridge Laura saw is still present in North London (and now has some enjoyable new additions).

Elsewhere, Laura and Jim look ahead to a busy transfer window, where Arteta could look to add some more quality in the department of “ratting around”. Plus, we preview tonight’s game at home to Boyzone.

A massive thank you for your support throughout the season. It has been a joy watching Arsenal become Premier League champions with you. It’s an Arsenal summer, so stick around, we’ll be back in the coming weeks with reaction pods, transfer news and probably another update on the Essex Road fridge.

The rumours are true, the pictures have dropped: Katie McCabe is a Chelsea player. Laura and Rory discuss the news and the reaction among the Arsenal fanbase since. How much does it impact McCabe's legacy? And will Chelsea fans come up with a new chant?

Well, that was beautiful chaos! The streets of North London might finally be quietening down after Arsenal’s title-winning parade but the memories will echo on for a lifetime. Today, Laura and Jim tell Rory all about the parade and their experiences enjoying the celebrations firsthand.

Elsewhere, we continue to reflect on our performance against PSG in the Champions League final. Plus, with silly season around the corner, we take our first look towards some potential transfer movement this summer.

After a massive effort from every last one of our players, the Champions League final finished with Arsenal heartbreak in Budapest.

Jim is joined by Laura from the airport to reflect on our penalty shootout defeat against PSG, but also on the massive mix of emotions – regret and agony, but also a huge sense of pride and optimism for the future of Mikel Arteta and this squad. Come and join us.

We're back in the Champions League final for the first time since 2006. Laura, Jonny and Jim are full of nervous excitement.

We remember our first go at grabbing Ol' Big Ears and how it compares to this season. We're also joined by On The Continent's Andy Brassell for the lowdown on PSG and where the key for Arsenal lies.

Plus, Laura shares her plans for Budapest and we reflect on this week's episode with Mikel Arteta and Josh Kroenke on The Overlap.

Well, Arsenal Women didn’t win any of the big trophies we hoped for - apart from that weird five-day Champions Cup. But that’s not stopping Laura and Lucy from handing out our own set of trophies to cap off the season: it’s time for our TTAA Alternative Awards!

From some of the brilliant moments conjured up by Alessia Russo n’ co, to some heart-wrenching/shoulder-shrugging moments that ultimately doomed us to finishing as WSL runners-up, there’s plenty of highs and lows to remember. Plus, we pay one final tribute to the players leaving us this summer - one brilliant, mad Irishwoman in particular.

Laura and Jim reflect on the season that saw our 22-year wait for a Premier League title come to an end. How did Arsenal do it? What was different compared to our previous attempts?

We discuss David Raya's extraordinary campaign, the influence of our summer signings, and the season-defining moments that ended in glory. Plus, we ask the definitely cheeky but absolutely necessary question: could this be the start of a period of dominance for Arsenal?

Luke and Jim spent the day celebrating the title win in one of the craziest days Holloway Road will ever witness – but they still made it to the studio to record another post-match pod!

Admittedly, today’s win over Palace had a weird pre-season vibe to it, but at least we saw some of the wider squad remind us of their qualities and put their hands up for the Champions League final. Plus, the magic moment: lifting the trophy in the blazing London sunshine. WHAT MORE COULD YOU ASK FOR - so join us as we relive it all!

What a week. Luke, Jim and Jonny relive the greatest night of our lives on Tuesday and all of the incredible #content that's followed. Apologies to all friends and family.

We also hear about the Arsenal fan who truly had the best night of any Gooner in the whole world. Congratulations Daniel Bull, if that is really who you are...

Also, we definitely sincerely wonder how Crystal Palace will set up on Sunday and allow ourselves the joy of pondering which Spurs player we'd most like to put in a lowball offer for if they actually get relegated. Come join us to continue the celebrations!

After 22 years, Arsenal Football Club are champions of England once more. DRINK IT IN!!!

Luke and Jim clamber out of the crowds around the Emirates to celebrate everything: from these incredible players, to Mikel Arteta and his bloody process, to what Jim thinks was the most important signing of our recent history in the form of Eberechi Eze, and the rollercoaster of emotions we've all gone through this season. It was all for this. So come join Luke, Jim and the rest of us at The Thing About Arsenal - who you'll hear from too on this special night - to savour every last moment.

So, how are you feeling? Luke and Jim are giddy with nerves. And probably sugar-crashing from all the cherries they've eaten.

We look back on our final game of the season at the Emirates, which beautifully capped off an incredible - and not always smooth - journey at our stadium. Luke and Jim were there to take it all in.

Elsewhere, we ponder on the availability of flares in the Holloway area and wonder which Arsenal player will be hosting everyone tonight. It's definitely Declan Rice, but we don't want to jinx anything yet. COME ON BOURNEMOUTH!

Who needs to win 5-0 when you can win 1-0? Lucy and Jonny are here to celebrate a 1-0 win against Burnley because that's exactly what we need to do when the Premier League is within our grasp.

Kai Havertz delivered the goods (and almost a red), while Piero Hincapié delivered something else. There was also the small matter of Pep Guardiola's Manchester City reign all but coming to an end midway through the game. What a bizarre old night...

“We’ve… had... McCabe,” and boy were we lucky too. Today, Laura and Rory reflect on Arsenal’s final game of the season and say goodbye to another legend departing the club this summer. We discuss how Katie McCabe is such a unique character and why Arsenal might never see the likes of her again.

Elsewhere, we discuss the wider squad rebuild with more players leaving the club this summer and take our first look ahead to what we might expect from next season.

Two games to go. Jim, Jonny and Rory are here to reflect on the gravity of that feeling and loads of others besides, some of which may still relate to VAR and the swirling conspiracy theories.

We preview Burnley on Monday night and the importance of goal difference in this game, while there's a slightly unwelcome trip down memory lane to revisit the last time Burnley beat us (dark times). Plus, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang goes on a rampage with a fire extinguisher, Ian Wright gets the biopic we've all been waiting for, and it's one of our favourite days of the year: kit launch day.

We knew it was coming, but nothing could prepare us for that exit video...

First things first on today’s show - Laura and Rory take a look back at Beth Mead’s time at Arsenal, from her heartbreaking ACL injury to that pass in the Champions League final. If anyone deserves to be called a legend, it’s her.

In happier news, it looks like Arsenal are getting their business done early and might be signing a goalscoring Gooner. Plus, Alessia Russo inspires an earnest conversation about napping and we look ahead to the final games of the WSL season.

Call a tattoo artist, we need to get booked in for our David Raya tattoos. Today, Laura, Luke and Jonny gather to relive another painful yet joyous weekend for Arsenal.

We weigh in on the ongoing VAR debate. Plus, Laura asks, in hindsight, was this result more fun than a 5-0 romp? And once we get all that out of the way, we celebrate the most important event of the weekend, Win the Dog’s birthday!

If you thought watching that game was nerve-wracking, try doing it AT West Ham. In the home end.

Lucy and Rory are almost (but fortunately not totally) speechless after one of the most dramatic games of Arsenal's season. 

We unpack it all: the VAR decision that saw Callum Wilson's equaliser ruled out, David Raya's extraordinary composure to save from Mateus Fernandes, and the equally extraordinary assist from Martin Ødegaard. But we're still trying to figure out why Declan Rice went to right-back...

Even after reaching the actual Champions League final, people are still trying to bring us down. Unfortunately for the haters, they're going to have to sit this one out. We're going to celebrate, and keep on celebrating until we can't no more.

The three Ls of Laura, Lucy and Luke are here to reflect on a week that just got better and better. Plus, we look ahead to the weekend as Arsenal take the Mildmay Line across London to our noisy neighbours West Ham.

ARSENAL ARE IN THE FINAL OF THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE! Laura and Jim dive out of the Emirates and get on the mics straight after full time to drink it all in.

From Viktor Gyökeres' heroic performance up top, to Bukayo Saka's goal, Ben White's redemption and Myles Lewis-Skelly's continuing midfield masterclass... there is A LOT to enjoy. Jim also explains how unique the pre-match atmosphere was and Laura cannot get over the chaos on the touchline. On a night like this, we're here for absolutely all of it.

Ugh! Lyon 3-1 Arsenal. Laura and Rory are here to react to a frustrating afternoon in Lyon. Rory explains why Wendie Renard gave him the ick, and we rue Arsenal’s missed chance to show everyone how good we can be.

Elsewhere, we are further icked out by the thought of Beth Mead and Katie McCabe going to Man City. Plus, we explain why Arsenal need to take the title race to the last day of the season.

Were we wrong to think that Arsenal weren't capable of a free-flowing performance anymore? Apparently so. Luke and Jim are here to further discuss our 3-0 win over Fulham at the weekend, Viktor Gyökeres' recent form and Myles Lewis-Skelly, who might have just saved us 80m quid in the summer.

Elsewhere, we start to get excited to play Atlético Madrid tomorrow night. Rumour has it there could be a very large tifo for us to enjoy.

That's more like it! Jim and Rory gather after a very enjoyable - and strangely nostalgic - afternoon in N5. We once again take a moment to appreciate how important a fully fit Bukayo Saka is to this team.

Elsewhere, Rory gives plenty of credit to Mikel Arteta for starting Myles Lewis Skelly in midfield and Jim hopes this result will give us a big old confidence boost going into the final few games of the season. Plus, we share some enjoyable celebrity sightings at the Emirates.

It’s Jim and Rory on the show, and they kick things off with their "Atlético Reflections” following an important week in the Champions League. Did Ben White know he was stepping on the Atlético badge? Does he even know what the badge looks like? Does the fact he didn’t step on the bear make a difference? We get into the nitty gritty of it all.

Elsewhere, we look ahead to Fulham at the weekend and once again bravely (naively) hope that this is the week our attack will click back into gear.

After last night's nonsense in the Champions League, it was time for some proper European football and some trademark Arsenal control. And we got it! For the first 45 minutes, at least...

Luke and Jonny react to a very valuable 1-1 draw away at Atlético Madrid, which – despite all the toilet roll everywhere – featured some really positive performances, not least Declan Rice and Viktor Gyökeres. The penalty decisions ain't even got us mad! But we still reserve some ire for Diego Simeone, don't you worry about that.

What’s that in the air? Look closely… it’s just a hint of Arsenal in Champions League dreamland again. Today, Laura, Lucy and Rory are keeping their emotions in check despite being impressed with Arsenal’s hard fought victory over Lyon in the first leg of the Champions League semi-final.

Elsewhere, Manu Zinsberger makes us all cry after it was announced she would leave the club. Plus, we could be back in the title-race. We aren’t get excited yet but Lucy will be singing YNWA at the weekend.

Note: We recorded this before it we announced that Beth Mead and Katie McCabe could be joining Man City...

Every fanbase says things aren't fair but hear us out...

Laura, Lucy and Luke reflect on the Newcastle victory, which left most of us confused and one of us fearing that Title Race 2.0 was already slipping away when Kai Havertz went down the tunnel.

Plus, should Eberechi Eze's goal count as a set piece? Is Declan Rice still auramaxxing? And what kind of hellish tie awaits us in Madrid against Diego Simeone's Atlético? Join us for all that and more!

One-nil to the Arsenal. Good, bad, stressful but ultimately good. Laura and Jonny are here to react to a win at home to Newcastle.

Laura and Rory cast their eyes over the opening weekend of Mikel Arteta's new season – and it's kicked off with the return of Bukayo Saka! We're excited, but also a little sceptical. Elsewhere, Laura explains why she's not sure Arsenal can switch their mindset so completely to start blowing teams away, while the listeners have a new plan in mind anyway. Why don't we just get the mascots to have a big old fight and decide the title that way? Join us!

Arsenal players have been out on international duty, with Alessia Russo now in her maverick era and Katie McCabe continuing to be Ireland’s hero. Laura and Rory are here to round up all the international goings-on!

We also hear from some listeners re: the squad rebuild needed at the end of this season (sorry, Stina). Plus, it’s finally time to look down the barrel at Arsenal’s brutal run-in: seven games in twenty days. Laura might need a Bovril to get through it.

Luke, Jonny and Rory convene after a painful afternoon at the Etihad. But what's that? We're actually feeling good about it?! Jonny shares his reasons to be hopeful, including why Sunday might be the start of a brand new Mikel Arteta XI for the run-in.

Elsewhere, we relish that Gabriel and Erling Haaland battle for the ages, Rory proposes a new chess-based format to decide the league (you know what to do, Ez) and Emmanuel Eboué pops up because... why the hell not at a time like this? Join us!

We once again turned up at the house of our bullies and were sent home without any dinner money. Laura and Jonny and here to unpack a painful afternoon at the Etihad.

Luke has some inspirational words for the Arsenal players before our titanic clash with Man City: become a statue. Not on the pitch ideally, please.

Luke, Jim and Rory have more words of wisdom ahead of the biggest game of the Premier League season. We discuss Mikel Arteta's fire - is that reassuring for the fanbase, or coming across as desperation? Is Jurrien Timber going to be back or is he being a tease? And... how the hell should Arsenal approach this game?! Join us for all that and much more.

Arsenal looked for their mojo tonight, and although we didn't quite find it, at least we find a last four spot in the Champions League!

Laura and Jim get straight out of the Emirates to discuss a confusing night against Sporting which wiped some of the slate clean, while raising fresh concerns for Sunday against Man City...

The big summer block is approaching and Arsenal currently have 11 players who could be out of contract. Today, Laura, Lucy and Rory are stepping into Renee Slegers' shoes to decide which players make it through to judges' houses and who gets sent packing to London City Lionesses.

Today's title is a real quote from a Greek philosopher who was also an Arsenal fan, by the way. Title race in circa 56 BC.

Laura, Jim and Lucy gather to do the only logical thing at a time like this: talk about Samir Nasri's Deliveroo orders in 2022. They also discuss some game that happened on Saturday and another one that happened on Sunday involving two teams in blue kits, one of which caused Lucy to swear at a child.

Plus, we look ahead to Sporting and what it could mean for the biggest week of our season (again).

Sam's stranded on an island. Jonny's trying to give up cigarettes. And then Arsenal go and do that.

We process one of the lowest points of the season as the April slide continues. Jonny points out his worries from the moment the lineup was named, while Sam is baffled by just how much this team looks like it's going backwards under Mikel Arteta – summed up by Martín Zubimendi's nervous performance.

The Premier League is back! Laura, Jim and Luke look ahead to a tough challenge against Bournemouth and try to get their heads around the rampant injury rumour mill, not helped by Mikel Arteta's secret training pitch in a bunker somewhere in Colney. Reports unconfirmed on that. Source: Kuke Lempner.

Elsewhere, our feelings after reports that the club will hear offers for Ethan Nwaneri and Myles Lewis-Skelly. Do we need to drive a hard bargain on academy players, or cherish homegrown stars like them? We also reflect on the career of a true legend after Aaron Ramsey announces his retirement and what he meant to Arsenal fans during a turbulent time in the club's history, where true legends were few and far between.

Well, who cares if we were falling asleep halfway through the second half and we struggled to break Sporting down, WHAT a result that was!

Luke and Jim jump on after a classy Kai Havertz goal capped off what was a cagey but controlled performance. We recap another imperious David Raya showing, an impressive return from Martin Ødegaard and some tentative moments from a few others - but shake off those nerves, because we got the win!

To all the fans who were seeking solace from the men's result on Saturday night with AWFC, welcome! And welcome to more of the same. Laura and Rory look back on a rollercoaster week that saw us go from triumph at Stamford Bridge to despair at Meadow Park, which sent us on some very long, very reflective walks.

We discuss what went wrong against Brighton as the domestic cups continue to elude us, while Rory is left wondering what Frida Maanum is actually doing at the moment. Elsewhere, there's a lot of love for a truly generational post-match interview from Sonia Bompastor, gritty game management and an away game that sounded even better than a home game.

With the dust settled, Jim and Jonny reflect on the Southampton defeat without declaring our season a failure or selling half of the squad. But it is time for some tough home truths.

Jonny explains why Mikel Arteta must become more accountable to the fans, while Jim questions whether this Arsenal team is truly enjoying its football. Plus, we answer a selection of your questions, including the inevitable... is it REALLY happening again? The lads come armed with plenty of reasons for optimism!

We knew those bloody balloons were a bad omen. Laura and Jonny react to Arsenal's chastening defeat at Southampton as we crash out of the FA Cup.

We discuss where it all went wrong, from the errors across the backline, to the general lack of urgency and reactivity in both the players and Mikel Arteta that is becoming a growing trend.

There's praise for Max Dowman – but also the startling realisation that he was by far Arsenal's best player. It's fair to say Laura and Jonny kept this one real, so come join us.

Arsenal are back in action! Luke, Jim and Sam are excited to watch our beautiful boys again as they take on Southampton in the FA Cup – even if we don't really know who's going to be fit.

Plus, Saka's sauce is back and everyone's behaving totally normally about it, Andrey Arshavin goes viral, and we have our first somewhat legit kit leak! Luke and Sam are already feeling ways...

After plenty of love for our backline, it's time to absolute eviscerate the rest of the team. Joking, of course – Declan Rice and Martín Zubimendi come out of this pretty well.

Laura, Sam and Rory give their marks out of 10 for every single Arsenal midfielder and attacker, featuring praise for Rice's 'ratting around', a very frank conversation about Bukayo Saka, and the horrifying realisation that Laura's Gabriel Jesus bandwagon really has run out of road. Join us!

It’s currently the international break for the men’s team, which is generally a good time to take stock of how things are going. Therefore, Luke, Jonny and Sam have gathered to submit their Arsenal player ratings for the season so far.

Today, we are starting with the goalkeepers and defence. So we’ve got some big questions to answer. E.g, how harsh should we be to Kepa? And, is Gabriel or William Saliba more worthy of a 10? Listen to find out.

Laura, Luke and Jim are here to affectionately moan about Arsenal and look ahead to a massive Saturday afternoon clash against Everton at some stadium called the Emirates. Is Bukayo Saka really injured, or is he hampered by the horseshoe of doom? Will Kai Havertz get the nod against Everton? And why is Rodri having a full-blown midlife crisis?

Plus, Luke has a troubling confession to make and Laura turns to the film 'Goal!' for advice. Said no one ever.

A sticky game which, if we’re honest, Bayer Leverkusen deserved to win. But thanks to a very “Champions League” penalty decision it’s all square going back to the Emirates. It will do…

The ingredients were all there. A couple of injuries, lots of rotation, and a very, very well-watered pitch – but Arsenal are through and back in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup.

Luke and Rory hail Mansfield's performance – particularly that of Arsenal fan Rhys Oates – and our best glimpse yet of Max Dowman's incredible quality on the ball. Plus, some vital dog updates and Luke airs his concerns about Gabriel Jesus.

After a week of lots of words and adding up stoppages and delays, the lads are here to set the record straight.

Luke is joined by Jonny and Rory to reflect on Fabian Hürzeler's post-match comments and Jonny argues that we're watching a team with 22 years of pressure on their shoulders getting the job done in the only they can right now.

Plus, we discuss our trip to Mansfield Town – which will surely see the youngest professional football team in history play at the oldest professional football ground. Also, Sam drops by for his take on Arsenal's new in-stadium grub, and somehow Bukayo Saka has never heard of Celine Dion.

The international break might still be dragging on, but the work of the Arsenal Women Supporters Club never stops! Laura dropped by for a quick catch up with one of the Club's leading members, Sam Hanlon.

Sam handles away trips and pre-match meet-ups and gives Laura an insight into the heart of our amazing fanbase, how things have so dramatically evolved since Euro 2022, and how we've made the Emirates our home this season.

That's the question Luke, Jonny and Jim kick off with on today's pod. Were the margins this tight in our title-winning seasons gone by? Or are we riding our luck?

We discuss the enormous positives of a big win against Chelsea – while also asking how Mikel Arteta and his players can stop losing control of games.

Plus, William Saliba enrages a ballboy in our new favourite moment of the season, St Totteringham's Day is here, and we look ahead to Brighton – with our secret weapon in tow...

Another great home win for the Gunners, but we STILL found a way to make it difficult for ourselves as the game dragged on. Let's try and focus on those three points! 

Laura and Jim grab the mics shortly after full-time with their mixed feelings, where some awesome first-half work was undone by a lapse in concentration and our level of control crumbled as the second half went on.

After an incredibly favourable draw presumably because of threats from Martin Keown, Arsenal have got a golden opportunity in the Champions League – and Man City have a potentially hellish month and a half ahead. Laura, Jim and Jonny discuss the ramifications of today's draw!

We also look ahead to Chelsea (again) on Sunday. How will Mikel Arteta spring a surprise on Liam Rosenior? We also discuss the club's very positive financial results this week, and why the season ticket price hike looks even worse. Plus, a Gooner in San Diego tells us that his local Arsenal bar is run by... a Spurs fan?!

On today’s episode of About AWFC, Laura is joined by a very special guest: Rachel O’Sullivan from Upfront and GirlsOnTheBall! Together, they’re stepping back and looking at Arsenal’s season so far.

What’s been behind our incredible month? Has Renée Slegers benefited from a lack of time to overanalyse and over-tinker?

They discuss the present and future of Beth Mead, our recent masterclasses in defence, and ask the defining question of a topsy-turvey campaign: what constitutes success this season for Arsenal?

For more on the WSL and beyond from Rachel, you can listen to Upfront right here!

Laura, Jim and Sam are high on M&Ms and Rio as they further digest yesterday's North London derby. There's lots of appreciation for Eberechi Eze's (confirmed) Booker T tribute and Gabriel's relentless tormenting of Richarlison.

Plus, a listener has a psychic birthday cake, we take a closer look at the 10-game run-in, and has Sol Campbell turned into AI? Come join us!

EZE! GYÖKERES! ANOTHER 4-1?! Luke, Jonny and Jim are together in the studio to celebrate the North London derby we were all hoping for. 

They discuss Eberechi Eze's stunning performance, Viktor Gyökeres's new position and literally smashing finishes, and David Raya's enormously comforting hands.

Come relive it all. Up the Gun!

Laura, Jim and Sam reconvene after a torturously long past two days for some much-needed debriefing. What did the draw with Wolves tell us about our style this season? Has Mikel Arteta's obsession with control gone too far? And when will Viktor Gyökeres just start... shooting more?

We look ahead to the North London derby and discuss how fans and players alike need to approach a (very) emotional occasion. Plus, we celebrate the official news: Bukayo Saka has signed the dotted line for another five years!

There's no other way to say it: this was an almighty bottling. And of course, it came on a rain-soaked, sleet-battered Wednesday night at Wolves.

Laura and Jonny try to figure out just what happened and whether this was just many, many problems for Mikel Arteta and this squad finally coming home to roost. They also reflect on what it means for our season more broadly and Jonny gives some invaluable advice for all Arsenal fans going into work tomorrow: avoid EVERYONE.

The FA Cup might be over for now, but the fun doesn't have to. How do we bring the fun of the cups into the league?

Luke, Rory and Lucy are here to ponder on that ahead of Wolves on Wednesday night. Plus, Mikel Arteta is #classless after refusing to sign an autograph while in the car with his wife and kids – and what's the optimal time to dish out some chocolate bars at the Emirates?

There's also some troubling revelations about Gunnersaurus, who may or may not be in the pocket of big media.
