The Athletic FC Podcast · What next for Arsenal? & Is Iraola better than Slot? · 1 Jun 2026 podcast

that's the first chant that started and I think from a fan perspective there is a really big I guess conscious effort to make sure he still feels loved and I'm sure that's the same with his teammates and we saw Marquinhos was the first player to console him afterwards and I think going into next year

There is a lot of talk about Payne fueling fire for future successes, but I think there'll be a motivation within himself anyway to put that right.

And I'm sure he will do because if you look at not just the final, but Arsenal's Champions League run throughout the season, he's been one of their best performers.

I do think there will be a sense of wanting to evolve from Mikel Arteta because we've seen that even though people may see the football now and say, oh, it's boring or they'd like to see it being a bit more fun.

There has been evolution to get to this point where Arsenal can win the Premier League because if you look at their first title challenge under Arteta, 22-23 that season,

The football was very entertaining, probably the most entertaining in the league.

But all the Premier League teams adapted, started to restrict space that Arsenal could or couldn't play in anymore.

And they had to adapt themselves.

So I think when you're looking at how they've grown in the Premier League compared to the Champions League, the Champions League most of the time has been where they've still been able to play slightly more free-flowing football.

So I think there will be an element of that next season.

But when you look at PSG and how they were able to perform, not just in this final, but throughout the Champions League, the one thing that Arteta has spoken about is the individual moments.

And I think that's something he'll look to provide more of within his team.

I think he has some players that can already do that.

You look at

Eze and Odegaard they played so little football together this season and I think that's something that is maybe an in-house solution already but then when you look at the transfer market I think those links to Morgan Rodgers make sense when you look at how they can really evolve with players who are maybe more individualistic in the final third and able to do things that aren't as predictable in those areas.

Yeah, I think that the main one would be looking at that left wing area just because Martinelli and Trossard are in the final couple of years of their contract.

So that would mean there's a logical decision to be made with both of them.

And when you're looking across the squad, I think...

you've got to look at right back as well because even though Ben White and Julian Timber are very good players I think Ben White's someone who's had a lot of injury problems in the last couple of years he is a fan favorite at Arsenal but I think there would be almost an acceptance if the time is now to part ways and then look for a bit more depth there then you look at

centre forward I know it sounds strange to say but Gabriel Jesus is a player in a similar position to Ben White where he's had a lot of injuries in the last couple of years and is getting towards the end of a contract so I think getting more players to supplement the already existing players would be the plan of action I believe.
