On this episode we welcome comedian, writer and Handbrake Off host, Ian Stone back to squad central.
I wanted to revisit my November 2025 conversation with, Ian to see if he was still feeling confident and full of belief about the Arsenal winning the title this season. We also dipped into the Carabao Cup, the April 18th game and if Mikel still holds the key to everything.
Oh and as we had a comedian in the house, we had to take the piss out of Tottenham. Would be rude not to. Dive in and have your say in our football democracy.

The Arsenal returned to devastating form against a Leeds United side who had been on the ascendancy in the last couple of months. Four goals and a brave starting XI from Mikel Arteta was enough to take the Gunners seven points clear...for now.
How did the Havertz/Gyökeres partnership translate to the Premier League? How did the team perform sans Ødegaard? And was Saka missed or did Madueke grab his moment? Dive in. Have your voice heard in our football democracy!
