In this episode we're in pre-holiday mood, discussing solitary confinement before moving onto the Martin Zubimendi Real Madrid rumours. Is that something to worry about? After that we discuss the deal to bring in Kepa Arrizabalaga from Chelsea to deputise for David Raya and maybe bring an end to goalkeeping drama every summer, Gabriel's new contract and what that says, and Andrea Berta's Italian style. Then we have listener questions about 3 forward signings and what that might mean for Martinelli, Mikel Arteta's tactical position in this era of coaching, the player ratings game, and lots more.This is the last podcast until next week as we're both going on holidays. We love you, but a week off isn't too much to ask! Talk to you when we get back. ❤️Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.

Arsecast Extra Episode 642 - 02.06.2025
In this episode we start with some Club World Cup chat before turning our attention to the Champions League final at the weekend. PSG were worthy winners and play exciting football, but can you separate that from the money, and is there so much going on in football to obscure that conversation? Then there's discussion of Joan Garcia and how Arsenal solve the number 2 goalkeeper issue this summer, before we take questions on adding a creative midfielder to the squad this summer, the big striker choice and how important it is for Mikel Arteta and Andrea Berta to get right, Edu's apparent influence at Nottingham Forest, signing younger players, and lots more.Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/arseblog Hosted on Acast.
