  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss the 1-0 win against Manchester City in the Premier League.

    Just when it looked like a dismal sequence of 15 games without a league win against City was about to continue, Arsenal came up with another moment of late drama at Emirates Stadium that may yet be seen as one of the most significant moments in Arteta's time as manager if it has the galvanising impact it should have.

    Four minutes remained, the main storyline looking like it would be yet another video assistant referee controversy. This time the debate was around how referee Michael Oliver somehow allowed Manchester City midfielder Mateo Kovacic to remain on the pitch after a nasty scrape down the back of Martin Odegaard's ankle that brought a yellow card, followed by another poor challenge on Declan Rice shortly after that brought nothing - It should have brought Kovacic's early departure.

    And then came that decisive moment. Gabriel Martinelli, excellent after appearing as a substitute at the start of the second half, fired in a shot in optimism that suddenly had the perfect outcome, deflecting off Nathan Ake past the stranded Ederson.

    The stadium erupted in joy, scenes repeated when four minutes of stoppage time were over and Oliver sounded the final whistle.

    Arsenal have got over a line that always seemed tantalisingly out of reach. We have won in the league against City after those 15 winless games in the past eight years, which included 12 straight losses.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss how French side RC Lens came from behind to shock Arsenal in the Champions League.

    The below-par Gunners rode some early pressure from Lens before Gabriel Jesus claimed a 14th-minute opener from a through-ball from Bukayo Saka, who then sadly went off injured.

    Lens levelled 11 minutes later as Adrien Thomasson curled a superb finish into the far corner as a resuly of a David Raya mistake.

    As Arsenal suffered their first loss of the season on a difficult night, they suffered another blow before Sunday's crunch Premier League meeting with Manchester City as England forward Saka went off after just 33 minutes.

    Wahi's first-time finish into the bottom left corner from a Przemyslaw Frankowski cross in the 69th minute saw the home side seal a notable success.

    If we are being honest, Lens were worthy of a win that took them to the top of Group B on four points, with Mikel Arteta's side second on three thanks to a draw in the other evenings fixture.

    Sloppy in defence, Arsenal struggled to create clear-cut chances. Arsenal will look to bounce back in the Champions League when they travel to Sevilla in three weeks' time, while Lens host PSV.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss how Arsenal thrashed Bournemouth 4 goals to 0. Kai Havertz scored his first goal for Arsenal with a penalty as we comfortably beat winless Bournemouth in the Premier League at Vitality Stadium.

    Havertz, who has struggled since arriving from Chelsea in the summer, converted the second of two Gunners penalties to ensure their third consecutive away victory.

    Bukayo Saka opened the scoring, heading in the rebound from Gabriel Jesus' effort and Martin Odegaard scored a penalty to give Mikel Arteta's side a comfortable lead at the break.

    The Gunners' dominance continued into the second half, and after Havertz scored, Ben White headed home from Odegaard's free-kick in added time to add gloss to a comprehensive victory for Arsenal.

    We also discuss the rather embarrassing PGMOL moments in the days evening fixture Tottenham v Liverpool.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss how Arsenal secured their place in the Carabao Cup fourth round as Reiss Nelson’s early goal clinched a battling 1-0 win over Brentford at the Gtech Community Stadium.

    Nelson finished coolly in the eighth minute following a misplaced pass from Brentford defender Zanka, with Mikel Arteta's much-changed team then holding off a second-half rally from the hosts.

    The Bees went closest through Yoann Wissa, who saw a low strike brilliantly pushed onto the post by Aaron Ramsdale, back in goal for Arsenal for the first time since losing his place to David Raya.

    Jakub Kiwior then pulled off a goal-line block from substitute Lewis Keane-Potter as Arsenal withstood more late Brentford pressure to ensure a winning response to their north London derby draw with Tottenham which sets up a trip to West Ham in the next round.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we talk about how ARSENAL have beaten PSV in their first Champions League match in six years.

    We ran riot, with Bukayo Saka, Leandro Trossard and Gabriel Jesus getting on the scoresheet in the first half.

    Martin Odegaard added a fourth in the second half as the Gunners cruised to their first Champions League win of the season.

    It was the perfect platform from which to leap into the weekend's North London derby against rivals Tottenham which we also discuss.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we talk about the HUGE 3-1 win vs Manchester Utd. Arsenal scored twice in stoppage time to secure a dramatic victory over Manchester United at the Emirates Stadium.
    In a chaotic finale to a largely scrappy game, Man United first thought they had snatched three points only to see Alejandro Garnacho's 88th-minute finish ruled out for offside by the video assistant referee with the score 1-1.
    The drama then switched to the other end in eight added minutes as Declan Rice's deflected shot gave Arsenal the lead before substitute Gabriel Jesus raced clear to wrap up the win as the stadium exploded in elation.
    United had taken the lead in the 27th minute when Christian Eriksen's pass played in Marcus Rashford, who cut inside to send an unerring right-foot drive past Arsenal keeper Aaron Ramsdale.
    The Gunners, who had already spurned a golden chance when the struggling Kai Havertz miskicked with the goal at his mercy, were level almost instantly when captain Martin Odegaard was given too much space and sent an emphatic finish into the bottom corner.
    In an encounter that rarely hit the heights despite lots of effort, Arsenal - who had seen a penalty over-turned by the VAR after referee Anthony Taylor originally ruled Havertz had been fouled - missed a glorious late opportunity when Bukayo Saka shot straight at Andre Onana.
    United saw celebrations cut short with two minutes left when substitute Garnacho raced clear to score, but the VAR ruled he was just offside - opening the door for Arsenal to produce two devastating blows.
    Arsenal put us through the emotional wringer before sheer joy swept around Emirates Stadium at the sound of Taylor's final whistle.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss the frustrating 2-2 at The Emirates against Fulham.

    Palhinha's first-time finish from a corner in the 87th minute earned the away side a share of the spoils. The Cottagers had Calvin Bassey sent off four minutes earlier after he fouled Eddie Nketiah on the counter-attack.

    Andreas Pereira got Fulham off to a quick start, scoring after just 57 seconds. Pereira latched onto a loose ball from Bukayo Saka and fired in a curling shot, with goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale out of position.

    Saka equalised from the penalty spot for the Gunners after Fabio Vieira was caught by Kenny Tete.

    Nketiah scored Arsenal's second as they came from behind to take the lead, before Fulham had the final word.

    After getting into their winning position, Arsenal switched off and were punished.If you would like to show your support for the podcast and help us grow please consider "buying us a coffee" via this link https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ArsenalRamble

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss how Arsenal overcame Takehiro Tomiyasu's second-half sending-off as Martin Odegaard's well-taken penalty was enough to secure a 1-0 win over Crystal Palace on Monday Night.

    The Gunners made it two wins from two at the start of the new Premier League season at Selhurst Park, as Odegaard's 53rd-minute spot-kick proved the difference despite referee David Coote's questionable decision to red-card Tomiyasu for two quick bookable offences.

    It led to a period of sustained pressure on Aaron Ramsdale's goal late on with Tyrick Mitchell firing over but the hosts were unable to unlock Arsenal's stubborn defence as Mikel Arteta's men ground out a victory which moves them level on points with Brighton and Manchester City at the Premier League summit.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss the opening Premier League home win against Nottingham Forest.

    Proceedings at the Emirates Stadium were delayed by half an hour as Arsenal's new digital ticketing caused chaos, leaving fans unable to get into the ground. The slated 12.30pm kick-off time was eventually pushed back, allowing the ground to fill up before the action got underway.

    Jurrien Timber, Declan Rice and Kai Havertz all started for Mikel Arteta's Arsenal, with Eddie Nketiah up front in a side brimming with attacking talent.

    Arsenal, who started the game slowly, clicked into gear. Gabriel Martinelli showed a great change of pace to get down the outside of Serge Aurier before a superb roulette turn saw the ball break to Eddie Nketiah. He shifted the ball in-field and fired a deflected low shot beyond former Arsenal reserve goalkeeper Matt Turner.

    Saka then showed his limitless talent six minutes later with a glorious second goal. The 21-year-old picked the ball up in the right channel, shifted it onto his favoured foot and bent a stupendous effort past the forlorn Turner the ball into the top corner.

    It wasn't all good news for Arsenal - Timber limped off in the early exchanges of the second half after a sudden, worrying jolt of his knee - as despite dominating possession, they failed to kill the game off.

    Forest, having offered little to nothing, burst into life after Taiwo Awoniyi and Anthony Elanga were introduced late in the second half, and the pair combined superbly to halve the deficit - former Manchester United winger Elanga squaring the ball after breaking at pace for Awoniyi to powerfully slam home from close range.

    Morgan Gibbs-White then fired over as the game opened up but Arsenal clung on to clinch an, in the end, hard-earned three points.

    We discuss the incoming arival of David Raya and the posibility of more outgoings/incomings!

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we talk about how Arsenal gave their hopes of beating Manchester City to the Premier League title a psychological boost as they defeated Pep Guardiola's side on penalties to win the Community Shield.

    After a largely forgettable 70 minutes in the season curtain-raiser, Cole Palmer looked to have won it for City when the substitute curled home a stunning strike.

    But Leandro Trossard equalised in the 101st minute when his shot deflected into the back of the net.

    That took the game to spot-kicks, where substitute Kevin de Bruyne struck the crossbar before Rodri saw his effort saved and then Fabio Vieira converted to secure the silverware for Arsenal.

    Arsenal led the Premier League for 248 days last season but their challenge fell apart in the closing stages as City overtook them to claim the title as part of a Treble, along with the Champions League and FA Cup.

    Gunners boss Mikel Arteta admitted in the build-up to this game that the end of last season still hurt, and was clearly desperate to get one over City, who beat his side home and away last season.

    We talk about our big summer signings Declan Rice, Kai Havertz and Jurrien Timber who were all handed their competitive debuts at Wembley, but it looked like it was going to be a familiar story as Havertz failed to convert two big opportunities in the first half, before Palmer's stunner put City ahead.

    But Arteta's side showed impressive spirit to battle to the end and got their reward when substitute Trossard struck before keeping their cool to come out on top in the shootout.

  • WE ARE BACK! In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss how Arsenal concluded a successful pre-season by retaining the Emirates Cup after beating French side Monaco on penalties.

    The Gunners enjoyed themselves back on home turf after their tours of Germany and America ahead of the Community Shield against Manchester City this Sunday.

    Mikel Arteta's side fell behind to Monaco in an otherwise uneventful friendly but forced spot-kicks when Eddie Nketiah tapped in.

    Aaron Ramsdale proved the hero by saving from former Liverpool star Takumi Minamino as Arsenal swept all five penalties home.

    And Gabriel bagged the decisive kick by sending Philipp Kohn the wrong way to cap an enjoyable evening for the north Londoners.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss how Arsenal recorded a thumping win against Wolverhampton Wanderers to end a fine Premier League season with a flourish at Emirates Stadium.

    Mikel Arteta's side, who were already assured of second place, ended the campaign on 84 points - the Gunners' highest points tally since the 'Invincibles' team took the title with 90 in 2003-04.

    Arsenal's unexpected and exciting title challenge may have collapsed in recent weeks, but we looked back to our best in this victory and were helped by passive opponents.

    Granit Xhaka, who has been heavily linked with a move to the Bundesliga, set Arsenal on their way when he nodded in Gabriel Jesus' early cross from the right.

    The Switzerland midfielder, who posted a 'Thank You Gunners' message on Instagram prior to kick-off, stroked in a second from close range to bring up Arsenal's 100th goal of the campaign in all competitions after Wolves defender Max Kilman inadvertently deflected the ball into his path.

    With Wolves struggling to contain their fluent opponents, Martin Odegaard and Leandro Trossard combined down the right to present the ball to Bukayo Saka, who curled in a superb third.

    Arsenal showed few signs of letting up after the break, with Jesus heading in their fourth at the back post from Trossard's pinpoint cross.

    Taiwo Awoniyi's 19th-minute goal was enough to seal the defeat. Arsenal dominated possession but Mikel Arteta's men could not find a way through Forest's spirited defence in order to force City to win a fifth title in six years themselves.

    We also deep dive into the season and discuss where it went wrong and the lessons this team can take into the seasons going forward!

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss how Arsenal clawed Manchester City's lead at the Premier League summit back to one point after they came out on top in a thriller against Newcastle United at St James' Park.

    Mikel Arteta's side, who have played one game more than the champions, responded superbly to the pressure exerted by Manchester City's victory over Leeds United to prevail in an action-packed, edgy encounter littered with chances on Tyneside.

    Newcastle, attempting to strengthen their push for a place in the Champions League next season, started at lightning pace - Jacob Murphy hitting the post and having a penalty award overturned by VAR.

    Arsenal, however, showed their strength and it was inspirational captain Martin Odegaard who followed up his double against Chelsea in midweek by drilling his 15th Premier League goal of the season past Newcastle keeper Nick Pope from 25 yards after 14 minutes.

    What followed was a magnificent game full of opportunities in a frenzied atmosphere, Pope saving crucially from Gabriel Martinelli, Bukayo Saka and Odegaard before half-time. Martinelli also struck the bar after the break.

    Arsenal keeper Aaron Ramsdale also produced vital stops from Joe Willock and Fabian Schar, with Alexander Isak heading against the post, before The Gunners broke clear to wrap up the three points - Schar turning Martinelli's cross into his own net in the 71st minute.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss how Arsenal delivered an emphatic warning that they remain serious title contenders as they outclassed abysmal Chelsea at Emirates Stadium to return to the top of the Premier League.

    The Gunners had gone four league games without a win and were heavily beaten last time out at reigning champions Manchester City, who replaced them at the summit with a victory at Fulham on Sunday.

    Arsenal responded by producing a magnificent first-half display, racing into a 3-0 lead inside 34 minutes courtesy of two crisp strikes by captain Martin Odegaard and a scrambled finish by Gabriel Jesus.

    Chelsea, who fell to a sixth straight loss under interim manager Frank Lampard, were thankful to goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga that the scoreline was not even more embarrassing and even pulled one back through Noni Madueke.

    Arsenal, however, were never in serious danger and are now two points clear of City having played two games more than their title rivals.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss how Manchester City dealt a crushing blow to Arsenal’s Premier League dream with a 4-1 win at the Etihad Stadium that puts them in control of the title race.

    Kevin De Bruyne scored two and set up the other for John Stones with Erling Haaland, who assisted both of De Bruyne's goals, getting the goal that his performance probably deserved by adding the fourth in stoppage time.

    Rob Holding had scored late on for Arsenal but the gap is down to two points and, crucially, City still have two games in hand. Talk of the treble will only increase now. For Arsenal, their first defeat since February is also their fourth game without a win. Hopes are fading.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss the 3-3 draw to bottom of the league, Southampton. Arsenal dropped points for the third consecutive game on Friday night. Late goals from Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka rescued a point for Mikel Arteta's side after falling 3-1 behind.

    Plenty has been said about the Gunners' defensive woes after conceding seven goals in their last three games. William Saliba's absence has been a major blow, with no clean sheets being secured since he sustained a back injury.

    After Saka levelled the scoring in the 90th minute, the Gunners were handed eight minutes of additional time to snatch a winner. Leandro Trossard clipped the crossbar with a long-range strike in their best chance.

    However, the fight and spirit of the Arsenal squad can certainly not be questioned after they netted two late goals to rescue a valuable point.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss the disappointing draw away to West Ham in the Premier League. A close-range finish from Gabriel Jesus and Martin Odegaard's volley put the Gunners 2-0 ahead inside the opening 10 minutes at London Stadium as they looked to be cruising to the victory.

    But, just as Arsenal did in the 2-2 draw at Liverpool last Sunday, Mikel Arteta's side could not hold on to their advantage and dropped valuable points in their title battle with Manchester City.

    Said Benrahma's penalty, after Gabriel had brought down Lucas Paqueta, gave the Hammers a way back into the game, before Arsenal got a spot-kick of their own, following Michail Antonio's handball, but Bukayo Saka shot wide. That proved costly as the hosts scored less than three minutes later through Jarrod Bowen's superb volley from Thilo Kehrer's lofted pass.

  • In this episode of @TheArsenalRamble we discuss the 2-2 draw against Liverpool. It was all sweet and serene for Arteta's side as they led 2-0 with half-time approaching, goals from Gabriel Martinelli and Gabriel Jesus a fair reflection of an outstanding display up to that point. Liverpool were downtrodden and the only noise at Anfield came from joyous Arsenal fans and the sound of frustration from the Kop.And then Granit Xhaka disappointingly forgot all the lessons and got involved in a totally needless flashpoint with Trent Alexander-Arnold, enraging Liverpool's players and - just as significantly - Anfield, as it suddenly became the sort of frenzied bearpit this stadium and this crowd feeds off.Mohamed Salah's goal three minutes before half-time set up a second-half siege and what looked like three points for Arsenal became one after Roberto Firmino's late equaliser, and could easily have been none after a frantic finale.Salah missed the chance to equalise when he failed to hit the target with a penalty for the second time in succession after Rob Holding was deemed to have fouled Diogo Jota, which threw himself to the ground...Suddenly it was Arsenal hanging on, needing to show the resolve they have demonstrated so often this season, to withstand the pressure as volume levels rose. Aaron Ramsdale, who had kept his team level with a save from Darwin Nunez when he was clean through, was a heroic figure in the closing moments as he produced a magnificent fingertip save from Salah then miraculously kept out Ibrahima Konate's bundled effort from virtually on the goalline in the dying seconds. Salah even missed a great chance at the far post as Liverpool pushed for victory.If you would like to show the podcast some extra support for the price of a cup of coffee then you can follow this link! https://www.buymeacoffee.com/ArsenalR...Follow us on Twitter @ArsenalRamble_ #Arsenal #Podcast #Liverpool #AFC #PremierLeague
