First half Arsenal, excellent. Second half Arsenal, nervy! Declan Rice was a general at right back. Martin Ødegaard had his best game in a while. But the real hero of the match was, David Raya who saved the day with an incredible tip over the bar to deny, Brighton.
Points vs performance keeps coming up as we scrape through second half displays. Mikel Arteta's Arsenal side is far more blue collar than champagne. Some fans want to drink the champagne. Do you care how we win, as long as we win? Have your say in our football democracy.

Winning ugly is becoming a habit for the Arsenal. Do you care if it means winning the title? Sophie says it's a season about points vs performance. That we are a blue collar team who likes to drink champagne sometimes. Do you agree or disagree? And is James being too harsh on Ødegaard? We also welcomed some calls from fans who wanted to have their say in our football democracy. A longer show ,but one filled with a variety of voices who love and care about the club. Get stuck in!

On this episode we welcome, Pete (aka Le Grove) back to squad central. Since the summer, many folks have lauded Arsenal's transfer business and squad depth. But after one late loss to Aston Villa, it appears the sky might be falling for a section of the fanbase...again.
There are strong opinions about Zubimendi, Eze, Madueke and Gyökeres! Opinions are never facts. So what is the truth? How have the new signings performed thus far? How have they integrated with tenured players? Have injuries hampered a true assessment? Let's dive in and dissect with, Le Grove as he grades the squad. Who gets a hall pass? Who is in detention?

A brutal last minute winner for Aston Villa ended a great run of results for the Arsenal in the league. As you can imagine, the post game reaction has been vitriolic in certain spaces, but is the sky really falling? Did the Mikel get his line-up wrong? Or did the team let the gaffer down? The image of the players down and out on the pitch at the end of the match is tough to see, but Mikel is very good at selling pain and providing a solution. Have your say in our football democracy.
