Arsenal Review USA

Arsenal seem to be timidly introducing us to this thing called winning as they extend their streak of Europa League victories to two. We'll pick apart their latest win at home over AC Milan, look ahead to the ever-shortening road to a final, talk Italian profligacy and discuss double standards over dives...

European victories on the road, Premiership victories in general...where has that been for the last two months? We'll discuss The Mkhi Offense, a day of many firsts for Petr Cech, European momentum and more on the live show...

Arsenal go from bad to ugly as they round out the last seven days with a three-fer: consecutive losses to City, City again, and then Brighton away from home (of course). We'll discuss the authenticity of dressing room leaks, what it takes to make a grown man cry and what this latest bit of media mud says about the current state of Arsenal's season. Game analysis? Just see "Post-Carabao Cup Final: Rudderless."

Coherence, drive, and just basic defending continue to elude Arsenal, this time inexcusably so in a cup final that sees them fall 3-0 to Manchester City. We'll talk whether or not it's really helpful to question the "character" of Arsenal players anymore, starved strikers and some nuggets of consumer research just to show you mercy and talk about something not-Arsenal...

Arsenal do all that's asked of them as they professionally see off their Swedish hosts and secure a 3-goal cushion for their upcoming Europa League 2nd leg. We'll talk Europa League vs League Cup pros and cons plus build up to Sunday's cup final showdown against Man City...

Arsenal's Wembley cheer finally runs out as they amazingly only lose 1-nil against the scum, a result which begs some pressing questions that hopefully this short podcast can answer: why have we become so bad against Tottenham? Why have we become so bad on offense? Is our off-the-ball movement a contributing factor? And how many more questions can we ask in this show description?

Arsenal's (relatively) crazy transfer window pays immediate dividends as Wenger's new attacking lineup blitzes Everton 5 goals to 1 at the Emirates. Arsenal matchday commentator Dan Roebuck joins us to discuss the bloodlust of Nacho Monreal, the realistic chances of seeing Lacazette play with Aubameyang and the revitalized crowd at the Emirates after a busy January...

Arsenal suggest that the future sans-Sanchez may be at least *slightly* better than originally feared as they skewer Crystal Palace at home to the tune of 4-1. We'll rate the club's damage limitation of the Alexis situation, gauge where the Chilean ranks in the unholy pantheon of want-away Arsenal stars and anticipate some circling of the wagons by the squad's remaining stars...

Arsenal continue to dig deeper in their quest to play even more incoherent football as they turn in a stalemate against Chelsea in the League Cup and then get overtaken by Bournemouth in the Premiership. Helping us put all our eggs in the incoming transfers basket will be returning guest Sam Limbert of TheBigDiag.com, plus we'll also talk about whether or not recent results are a fair reflection on the quality of this squad, whether or not Arsene Wenger's essentially already started his own managerial transitional period and more...

Arsenal opt for the Thrilling Draw yet again, followed by the thrilling 4-2 Loss to a Championship side as they bow out of the third round of the FA Cup for the first time ever under Arsene Wenger. We’ll discuss whether the last 5-6 years have actually made Wenger tarnish-proof, which teammates Big Per’s going to commit harakiri with and what a Patrick Vieira circa 2001 would say on Twitter about Arsenal’s recent run of performances…

Arsenal fail to plug the dike as they hemorrhage goals to Liverpool, Crystal Palace, and Mike Dean over the holiday period. We'll pick over the Crystal Palace goalfest and the Arsenal/refereeing stinkfest in the West Brom game, plus discuss professional sports referee salaries and whether or not governing bodies have any reason to care about the quality of officiating...

Arsenal slog through the beginning of their festive period with two stuffy performances, the first a fairly stale encounter at the Olympic Stadium, the second another fairly stodgy win punctuated by a brilliant Mesut Ozil goal. We'll discuss whether three points was a reasonable expectation to have for this last week, Arsenal's somewhat conservative two-game gameweek approach, as well as where exactly the goals will continue to come from in an increasingly timid midfield as we head into the club's first Friday night showdown with Liverpool...

Arsenal blitz hapless Bate in midweek Europa League action before shooting themselves in the (other) foot with yet another abysmal league start against Southampton. So, naturally, we'll debate roughly how long it will take Arsenal to actually take poor defending seriously, how deadly conceding an early goal is statistically and what difference playing four at the back actually makes in these situations, plus we'll throw in some prize trivia in case you're a) still behind on your Christmas shopping and b) a complete cheapskate...

Arsenal shows us two very different results, but we've got Tim Bostelle of 7amkickoff on-hand to point out some statistical similarities, plus we'll also go over what the Man U result will most likely do to the squad's offensive momentum, talk listless Huddersfield and more...

Arsenal put all their eggs in the Premiership points basket as they turn in one dismal 1-nil display and.....er....another dismal -- albeit more profitable -- 1-nil display, once again breaking Burnley hearts to move into top four strata in the league. We'll announce last week's show trivia answer, try to unpack Kolasinac's striker potential and Aaron Ramsey's new designated diver status as we relive this week's scrappy performances...
