Haven’t listened yet but really hopeful that even for fun you covered that offside Gyokeres moment at the end, when he cleared the ball away from the United goal like was a prime centre back.

Additionally same question with Eddie Nketiah

Hi both. Fun thought experiment. If you HAD to choose between Gyokeres and Bendtner for a crucial game of football who would you choose, and why is it Nicklas Bendtner?

So sorry this happened James. But will add my voice to the mix. There is nobody whose work I have enjoyed more the past few years. That includes podcasts, articles and your brilliant book. Keep it going. Bernd Leno doesn’t matter.

@annabower.bsky.social amazing reporting here. Thanks for this. And now just discovered lawfare as well! Kudos

Goodly morning ArseMen. I do think Gyokeres had a better 2nd half yesterday, but was it a mistake to go so hard after players like him and Sesko? when arguably guys like Mateta, Watkins and other tall blokes were more reliable choices that would come with less pressure.

Is this a true detective reference or simply Nietzsche ?

@gunnerblog.bsky.social great article and great writing. Thanks for this James.

Haha I am hoping they progress to a new Mean. But making Barry captain in week 1 was an error that only I am to blame for.

Midfield dreadful. Worst I have ever seen Odegaard. .
August 17, 2025 at 5:19 PM
Haha makes sense! Andre Santos no doubt leading a charmed life as well in your prep for this episode.

@arseblog.com @lgambrose.bsky.social great fun episode! Thanks guys.

However I am shocked Denilson has somehow evaded Arsecast justice. He had the defending instincts of Ozil and the touch and attacking instincts of Petr Cech.

Andros Townsend lol? Maybe the journeyman version.

Thanks Tom for all you’ve written the past few years since I have been reading. It has made me smarter, more considered and better at articulating my own opinions. But first and foremost you seem like a family man, and on some level we all relate to that.

What is the real true opinion on whether we need to stop buying expensive goalkeepers? More links with Joan Garcia for another 20m. Does Iñaki Caña need to be taken down a peg or 2?
April 7, 2025 at 6:26 AM
I for one am hopeful we sign at least one left back and 3-5 goalkeepers before we even consider forwards.

Odegaard is legitimately terrible at free kicks haha

I know that was offside lol but why did Zinchenko not shoot there? Incredible desire to avoid taking a shot
