On this week's show we enjoy the 4-0 win over Newcastle, a win which has felt a long time coming because it has been a long time coming. We discuss Mikel Arteta's team selection, with Eddie Nketiah and Dani Ceballos surprise starters; the improved second half after a difficult first; Nicolas Pepe's best game for the club; the continued development of Bukayo Saka; long overdue goals for Ozil and Lacazette; and the team showing the benefits of the warm weather training camp. As well as that we answer questions about Matteo Guendouzi's absence from the squad, Arteta's penchant for Shkodran Mustafi, Saka's contractual situation, David Luiz's nose antics, and there's a new rendition of the magpie's jingle having beaten said magpies so comprehensively.  For information regarding your data privacy, visit

It's been a very quiet week on the news front, but things are about to kick off again and Arsenal need to start winning games. Will the trip to Dubai, some extra training and time to assess the squad allow Mikel Arteta to find the right balance? Can he get the team firing again? How long can he give Mesut Ozil and Alex Lacazette to start delivering? And does a full squad allow him to create a really competitive environment between now and May. With me to discuss all that and much more are Clive Palmer and Andrew Allen. Follow Clive -

On this week's show we endure some first half audio issues as we come to terms with the almost complete absence of Arsenal news. We chat a bit about the trip to Dubai, watch a video of the chaps in training, before James resorts to plumbing the worst depths of NewsNow to find subject matter. We also answer listener questions about a statue for Arsene Wenger, short-shorts and glistening thighs, Arsenal players of the past, the benefits of the training camp, favourite sports movies, and lots more Winterlull waffle.  For information regarding your data privacy, visit

On this week's show I chat with Philippe Auclair about Nicolas Pepe and Alexandre Lacazette. Can the former make the impact we all hope for, and does the latter's poor form require a change in thinking from Mikel Arteta? We also discuss January recruitment, worrying finances, the prospect of no European football next season, and the potential of Gabriel Martinelli. After that, ahead of this weekend's North London derby, Tim Stillman chats with Arsenal midfielder Jordan Nobbs about the game, her recovery from an ACL injury, the increased spotlight on the women's game and lots more.

On this week's show James and I discuss the 0-0 draw away at Burnley. Arsenal spurned good chances, but the home side probably should have won it. We chat about the game, the team selection, Arteta's delay in dealing with the Bukayo Saka injury, the lack of away contributions from some big players, the complete lack of Nicolas Pepe, and who we should be pointing fingers at as we find ourselves struggling in mid-table. Then we answer questions about selling our two strikers in the summer, a good performance from Shkodran Mustafi, the future of Ainsley Maitland-Niles, and lots more.
