  • Should Arsenal sell Gabriel Jesus?

    Should Arsenal sell Gabriel Jesus?
    May 2 2024
    James McNicholas and Adrian Clarke join Ian Stone to discuss the future of Arsenal's number 9. Gabriel Jesus looks a far cry from the player who took us to a new level in the first half of last season, with only four Premier League goals this campaign. Have this team out grown him, and should Mikel Arteta look to sell? Or can he get back to the form we know he's capable of? Plus, what could Jorginho's contract offer mean for Thomas Partey, and a look ahead to Saturday's home fixture against Bournemouth... Let's hope it's less stressful than last time.

Plus, St Totteringham's day, Ben White's antics, and Mikel Arteta's 'Untouchables'. 3 cup finals down, 3 to go... Produced by Jay Beale. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    Villa dent title hopes, how Arsenal respond is key
    Apr 15 2024
    James McNicholas and Art de Roché join Ian Stone to reflect on Arsenal's disappointing home defeat to Unai Emery's Aston Villa. The Gunners failed to capitalise on Crystal Palace's victory at Anfield, meaning it's Manchester who lead the way with a 2 point gap at the top. The panel discuss whether Mikel Arteta's side have outgrown Zinchenko, and if moving Havertz into midfield was a mistake. With Bayern Munich up next in the Champions League, and the tie in the balance, this could be a season defining week - how will Arsenal respond? Plus, a thrashing in the WSL as Arsenal beat Bristol City 5-0, and Bundesliga champion, Granit Xhaka. Produced by Jay Beale. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
