On today's show I'm joined by Amy Lawrence to discuss Mikel Arteta and how the rest of the season might play out. How should he approach it, and how should it be viewed by fans? We chat about the hierarchy and their role, transfer business, and prioritising Europe as it potentially has the greatest reward for us this season. Then, with links to left back Layvin Kurzawa, I speak to Phil Costa of OneFootball about the PSG man, what kind of player he is, the super-agent influence on this deal and some of the other club's business, and what it might mean in the summer for Sead Kolasinac. All that and some of the usual waffle.

On this week's show James returns to discuss the 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace on Saturday. We chat about the opening 30 minutes in which Arsenal dominated but failed to make the most of; the importance of Lucas Torreira; the Palace equaliser and what we could have done to avoid it; Aubameyang's red card; Lacazette's difficult time in front of goal; and signs of progress despite only taking a point. Then we answer listener questions about the January transfer market, which player from a bottom half Premier League team we'd sign, Rob Holding and Hector Bellerin, how we cope without Aubameyang for the next three games, and lots more.

A bumper show for you today, starting with Michael Cox who's with me to discuss the tactical side of what Mikel Arteta has done since becoming manager. What are the key changes, who are the main beneficiaries in the squad, and what might he look to do when he really settles in? After that we find out why it will no longer be possible for Arsenal to sign a player like Cesc Fabregas, before a look ahead to the weekend's game from a Crystal Palace perspective with Dan from HLTCO, chatting their season, injuries, Zaha and lots more.

On the first Arsecast Extra of 2020, I'm joined by Tayo Popoola, standing in for James who is away this week. We chat about the 1-0 win over Leeds in the FA Cup, the quintessential game of two halves. Leeds were on top in the first, we were far better in the second. We chat about turnaround, Mikel Arteta's half-time teamtalk, the response from the players, Sokratis rampaging down the wing, Reiss Nelson's goal, and the win itself. Then we have listener questions about Granit Xhaka's fouling and how it went down on TV, Nicolas Pepe and Matteo Guendouzi as players who need some rough edges polished off them, whether this is a false dawn under Mikel Arteta, protecting the 49 game unbeaten run and lots more.

Arsenal face Leeds United tonight in the FA Cup third round, and it brings back memories of that incredible moment in 2012 when Thierry Henry, on loan from New York Red Bulls, scored the winner at the Emirates. It's one of the most iconic goals ever scored at the stadium, and a few years ago Tayo Popoola put together a superb piece with memories from the likes of Ian Wright, Amy Lawrence, Alan Davies, Stuart MacFarlane, myself, and many more. Ahead of tonight's game, here's a special extended version to get you in the mood.
"Henry. Chance. Goal!
"He may be cast in bronze, but he's still capable of producing truly golden moments"
Produced by Tayo Popoola

On this first Arsecast of 2020, it's a look back at the 2-0 win over Man Utd which gave Mikel Arteta his first win as Arsenal boss. I'm joined first by Andrew Allen, to discuss the long overdue victory, the impact Arteta has had on the team as well as the mood, Lucas Torreira and more. Then I chat to Charles Watts of Goal about the pre-Leeds press conference, why the training ground is a happier place, Arteta's big Granit Xhaka decision, and a look ahead to Monday's FA Cup clash.

For this month's episode of the Arsenal Women Arsecast Pippa and Tim are joined by women's football journalist Sophie Lawson. Tim and Pippa chat with Sophie about individual awards in women's football. Should they exist? Is there enough global coverage of the women's game to do them justice? Is there any problem with them being popularity contests? And is Vivianne Miedema unfairly overlooked when it comes to dishing out the baubles?
The panel also talk a little bit about the Conti Cup and whether it's still useful in its current format, the WSL title race and the arrival of Sam Kerr at Chelsea and what it could mean for the WSL salary cap. All that and more in this month's Arsenal Women Arsecast- the only and therefore the best podcast dedicated to the Arsenal Women's team.

In this episode James and I discuss 2-1 defeat to Chelsea at the Emirates yesterday. In spite of the result there were things to like about what Arsenal did, so we chat about those, how Mikel Arteta is trying to implement change, as well as the moments which lost us the game. Bernd Leno's mistake is the obvious talking point, but really poor defending brought about Chelsea's winner. The hectic schedule is another big talking point, as well as injuries and fatigue to take into account for Wednesday's game against Man Utd. We also answer listener questions about Aubameyang out wide, Nicolas Pepe's continued exclusion, Mesut Ozil's recent impact, transfer window predictions, moments of the decade and lots more.

A quick festive period podcast for you, looking back at Mikel Arteta's first game in charge of Arsenal. With me to discuss the 1-1 draw with Bournemouth is Lewis Ambrose. We chat about the game, some small tactical tweaks, the promising signs, as well as Nicolas Pepe, Alexandre Lacazette, and Mesut Ozil. Also on the agenda, the Granit Xhaka situation as he makes it clear he wants to leave the club in January.

In this episode James and I discuss the 0-0 draw with Everton, Freddie's team selection and a couple of positives before the conversation inevitably turns to Mikel Arteta. The 37 year was appointed head coach (manager) last week, so we chat about that, what we can expect from him in the short-medium turn, what he can bring back to the club, excitement over a new era, and his impressive press conference performance. Then there are questions about the January transfer window, the left back situation, racism in the Premier League and, of course, the one topic everyone can't get enough of: Arteta's hair.
