In this episode I'm back in Dublin while James is in Hong Kong, following the Arsenal tour to its conclusion. We chat about the game against Newcastle in Singapore, focusing a bit on Max Dowman and how we find the balance between obvious excitement at what he's done on the pitch versus his age and adding to the hype. We also chat about the unveiling of Viktor Gyokeres, how he and Kai Havertz will mesh in the upcoming season, and Riccardo Calafiori. Then there are listener questions about Gabriel Jesus, whether Arsenal have to react to what other teams do in the market and whether this window needs one more signing, signing a left-back, how the final month of the transfer window might play out and lots more.

In this episode James and I are in a hotel room in Singapore, and we discuss the time out here, and then Arsenal's pre-season win over AC Milan. We chat about Ethan Nwaneri and his first 45 minute performance, other individuals like Martin Zubimendi who we saw in an Arsenal shirt for the first time, and the youthful XI that finished the game, with two 15 year olds on the pitch at the final whistle. We also talk about the tour itself, answer questions about Mikel Arteta's tier system, Mikel Merino, further additions to the squad, and lots more.

In this episode Phil Costa is standing in for James, and we begin by chatting about the 30 man squad that has traveled to Singapore for the start of the pre-season tour, and a couple who aren't quite men yet due to their tender age. Then we move to Ethan Nwaneri's new contract and his role next season, the confirmed arrival of Noni Madueke, and the latest from the Viktor Gyokeres saga with reports of a crying dad and a moving sofa. In part two we answer questions about the summer's business so far and whether we've improved the first XI, Christian Norgaard, how Martin Zubimendi can help the team attack, chaos factor, the need for another attacking signing, and lots more.

In this episode I'm joined by Harry Symeou from Chronicles of a Gooner to discuss all the latest transfer news, starting with the lack of transfer news – in particular no developments on the Viktor Gyokeres deal. We then discuss the way Arsenal have been building the squad this season, Harry speaks about how he feels signing Eberechi Eze would make this a great window on the incoming front, before we talk about outgoings including Reiss Nelson, an Academy signing and what's happening at U21 level, multi-club ownership, how we might change our style of play next season, and lots more.

In this episode the transfers are coming thick and fast, and we discuss the imminent arrival of Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting, and whether the arrival of a long-awaited striker will ease some of the anxiety that has permeated the window so far. We then chat about Noni Madueke, who is set to sign from Chelsea, and examine that deal, focusing on what is 'market value' for a winger these days, and the allocation of resources for this particular signing. Then there's Cristhian Mosquera about to join from Valencia to round-out a busy few days, before we answer listener questions about Gyokeres and his place in the squad next season, what it means for other players and their own playing time, the departures we expect to see happen, Andrea Berta's influence, and lots more.

In this episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast, Tim is joined by Clive Palmer from the Arsenal Vision Podcast to talk about Arsenal's £1m bid for Olivia Smith being accepted by Liverpool. They discuss Arsenal's identification of the player, what it says that the club were willing to meet Liverpool's firm asking price and the changing landscape of transfer fees in women's football, what Smith can add to the team and the importance of bringing the age profile down in the wide areas. They also discuss how her game at Liverpool can be scaled up at Arsenal and there's a little on greater use of squad players next season in the interests of making a firmer league title challenge.

In this episode I'm joined by Andrew Allen to chat about the signing of Christian Norgaard and where he fits in the context of our summer business so far. After that, there's a big discussion about Noni Madueke and Arsenal's reported £52 bid for the Chelsea winger. There are always concerns, but is this just market rate, and at what point do expressing concerns about a transfer cross the line into something less edifying. We also round up the rumours involving the Viktor Gyokeres deal and reports around that, Leandro Trossard and Fabio Vieira leaving the club, talk about resetting and going again for the title next season, and lots more.

Today's Arsecast Extra comes in three parts. In the first, we chat about the confirmation of Martin Zubimendi's transfer and what he'll bring to the team; the big striker news as it appears Arsenal have decided to sign Viktor Gyokeres from Sporting; reported interest in Chelsea's Noni Madueke and how that stacks up; Leandro Trossard linked with a move to Fenerbahce; and Takehiro Tomiyasu's slightly unexpected departure.
Part 2 begins at 45'05 and runs until 1:13'09. We discuss the fact that Thomas Partey has been charged by the Met Police with rape and sexual assault. We understand this might be difficult for some listeners, so you can skip if it's not something you want to listen to, but we talk about the news being public, the way Arsenal handled the situation as a whole, the responsibility of those at the top of the club to uphold values, and how we felt about a possible contract extension. This is the article mentioned in the discussion - https://substack.com/inbox/post/167542986
In the third part, it's listener questions involving Ethan Nwaneri's contract, Gabriel Heinze being added to the coaching staff, how transfer rumours like the Gyokeres one on Sunday disseminate, and more.

In this episode I'm joined by Tim Stillman, and we begin with the sad news involving Liverpool forward Diogo Jota who, along with his brother, lost his life in a car accident in Spain. We then do our best to pivot to Arsenal discussion, chatting about interest in Crystal Palace's Eberechi Eze and how he – on paper at least – isn't a typical Mikel Arteta player. We also touch on the need for depth, the striker search, reported interest in Chelsea's Noni Madueke, what the future holds for Max Dowman, Chloe Kelly's new contract, and more.
