🎧 26 | COME ON YOU SPU*S! 🤢 | Old Trafford is falling down 🎵 🎶

So here it is, we've got to the final game of the season and we're still in it. That's all we can ask for, right? No. Absolutely not. We can ask for that team across the road to actually be good for once in their lives, and win a bloody trophy. For Arsenal. In Episode 26, we talk about our win against Manchester United, the upcoming match against Everton and Mos has a funny gut feeling that we might just do the unthinkable...

🎧 25 | Bournemouth review | Man Utd, we NEED you to keep Ten Hag IN!!! | How good is this Arsenal team in comparison to others?

We’ve hit a quarter of a century of podcasts!! Tabs and Jamie have great fun discussing how good this Arsenal team is and how it compares to other top Arsenal teams of the past. Is Arteta more Graham than Wenger? We go through a dominant and deserved win v Bournemouth, aided by a touch of VAR assistance. How big are Rice’s lungs? A soft penalty is still a penalty, right? We then laugh at Manchester Utd, and then laugh a bit more, whilst still fretting about the game. #TenHagIN...

We discuss the 3 goals in the first half, Raya's mistake and Rice giving away a penalty (we hope Ben Davies' balls are ok...) and much more! 3 to go... COME ON YOU GUNNERS!

🎧 23 | Chelsea BATTERED | Ben White takes his dog for a walk | Thomas Partey, we've missed you! | Mos and Martin... love is in the air!

Episode 23 is hands down my FAVOURITE yet… not only because we BATTERED Chelsea, not because Liverpool concede during it, and not because Babak602 chickened out of my challenge! It’s my favourite because we’re in such good spirits, and what a season it has been! 🥳 You CANNOT miss this, listen now on Spotify, Apple, or wherever you get your podcasts!

🎧 22 | The Grove leg breaker! | BORING, PROFESSIONAL ARSENAL! | We just need to pick each team off, one at a time...

In Episode 22, The Grove find themselves with an injured Mos who broke his fibula joined by Tabs and Whale - the gruesome twosome - to discuss our boring(?), but professional victory over Wolves. What does the result mean for us? Simply put, we have to win the rest of our games in any way necessary to have a chance if Man City slip up. Oh, and Pool too, right?! We'll be back on Thursday for the Chelsea review and a look ahead to the North London Derby, but until then stay safe and remember.....

🎧 20 | Watkins haunts his boyhood club | Keep the faith, there's still so much to play for!

Have a listen to episode 20, where Mos is joined by Tabs and Senzi to dissect and discuss the match against Aston Villa. There's really not much to say, except we are all in agreement that the first half missed chances cost us, and the substitutes didn't work in our favour for once. One thing is for sure though, as Mos says, it's about the destination and not the journey, and boy what a journey it has been! Focus shifts on to Bayern on Wednesday, and let's get behind the team to ...

🎧 19 | Bayern Munich review | Should both teams have had a penalty? ⚽️

Episode 19 is here, with Mos and Tabs discussing the game against Bayern Munich in the 1st leg of the Champions League Quarter Final. Should Arsenal have had a penalty for the 'foul' on Saka, or should he have taken a shot straight away? 🤔 What does the result mean for us going in to the second leg? 🔜 Was Harry Kane lucky to be on the pitch after his elbow on Gabriel? 🔴 We discuss all this, and much more, including a look ahead to Aston Villa this weekend! COME ON YOU GUNNERS!...

Episode 17 - Back to winning ways! | What would success be for YOU this season? 🤔

I had a lot of fun recording with Tabs and Søren today, great pod with a really good question at the end.. what does success look like for Arsenal this season?! Would you take no trophies but a CL semi final? Or do we have to win trophies? Get involved with your own answer - send it to me personally or answer on Spotify under the episode 17 description. We also discussed the mysterious case of who Babak602 is… can you reveal yourself?! As well as the game against Luton and looked ahead to Bright...

Episode 16 - Two points dropped or one point gained? | The Man City review

It's a sombre mood on one side of The Grove the morning after the night before Arsenal drew 0-0 with Man City. Mos is back, and joined by Tabs and Whale who each have their own opinions on taking a point at the Etihad. Did we miss a chance to go top? Or was a point well deserved? Should Gabriel Jesus change his name by deed poll to include 'BCM' in the middle? The boys hash it out, and remember, at the end of the day it's not about the destination but the journey instead! COME ON...

No Mos, No Problem! Tabs takes the lead in Episode 15 alongside a much more streamlined Whale who discuss how Arsenal WILL beat City, whilst Tom needs to find some tweezers from sitting on the fence over his prediction!

Oh, and don't worry, Mos will be back for Episode 16 when we're STILL top of the league! COME ON YOU GUNNERS!...

Episode 13 - FINAL TEN GAMES - WE PREDICT WHO WINS THE LEAGUE! | UCL draw reaction | Porto? No problem!

International breaks are NEVER fun, so Mos and Tabs decided to try and predict where Arsenal, Liverpool and Man City finished up in the league (and just wait for the last game… oops!)! The boys also discussed the Champions League draw, what it means to play Bayern Munich and how we fared last time out against Porto. Send in your voice notes to Mos via WhatsApp or Spotify, and be sure to tell us what you want to hear in the next episode which will be out on the weekend! COME ON YOU GUNNERS!...

Episode 12 - DIRTY, CHEATING, BRENTFORD! | Tsamina mina, eh eh… you know the rest! | Oh DEAR Rambo!! | Toney? No thanks!

Still on a high from the previous night, Mos is joined by Tabs and Søren to discuss the game against Brentford over a coffee. The boys had much to talk about, no less than the super goal by Kai Havertz to take us top (for now) of the premier league! We also discussed if Kai dived, and Mos TRIED to defend him(!), the Trossard penalty shout, as well as Aaron Ramsdale and how the majority are now in agreement David Raya is a significant upgrade plus a look ahead to Porto on Tuesday.
