    Episode 843 - Evaluating Where The Squad and Season Stands After Draw at Chelsea
    Nov 11 2024
    On this edition of the ArsenalVision Podcast, Elliot is joined by Clive and Paul to breakdown a draw at Chelsea that was encouraging and frustrating in equal measure. The pod starts with some general comments on the state of Arsenal’s league season following the weekend’s results. There are questions about whether Arsenal can still win the league, whether the squad is built the right way for achieving our goals, and where the Arteta project stands at the moment. Then the pod turns attention squarely to the game at Stamford Bridge. The group shares their thoughts about the lineup and the idea that it left no room for “excuses.” Then the pod details the tactical battle, how Arsenal grew into the match, and attempts to answer whether this started to look like the version of Arsenal that ran the league so close last season. The big moments are broken down, along with key performances that stood out for better and worse. There’s a section on Arsenal’s attack, more examination of squad depth, and then the pod tries to answer the question of whether Liverpool can be caught with a quick look ahead to the games following the international break.

    Episode 842 - Better Performance Than Result, But Something is Missing
    Nov 7 2024
    On this edition of the ArsenalVision Podcast, Elliot is joined by Tim and Paul to make sense of a decent performance in Italy that didn’t produce the result it might have deserved. There’s a bit on how Arsenal control games without creating enough threat and why we get forced out wide rather than attacking through the middle. The penalty incidents are discussed and then the pod covers some individual performances that stood out for good and for bad including Leo, Merino, Saka, Martinelli, the fullbacks and Ethan Nwaneri. There’s also a discussion about attacking depth in the squad and the Raheem Sterling absence. The pod tries to explain why a mostly acceptable performance in a vacuum might feel worse. Lastly, there’s a look ahead to Chelsea and preview of what to expect and how to beat them and whether it's a "must win" game. All that and more on this edition of the ArsenalVision Podcast.
