In this episode we discuss the long-awaited 1-0 win over Man City at the Emirates on Sunday afternoon. There was no Bukayo Saka for Arsenal as we discuss team selection, David Raya's difficult opening period to the game, and the main talking point of the first half which was the lack of red card for Mateo Kovacic. We chat about the context of this fixture and how it impacted the approach, Arsenal's maturity and professionalism, the brilliant defensive platform, all four subs combining for the winning goal, and whether this win will be more than just three points. Then there are questions about Saka's absence – is it manager smoke and mirrors? – Gabriel Martinelli, City's salty reaction to losing, Ben White, the Super Mik Arteta song and loads more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
