Shownotes Transcript

Join Ian Stone, Amy Lawrence, Art de Roché and a cameo from James McNicholas as we reflect on Arsenal’s disappointing 3-2 defeat to Manchester United.

In this episode: why do Arsenal seem to bottle just as they’re about to make a step forward? Is this just part of the growing pains of a young side, and a young manager, or are the senior players not pulling their weight?

Plus we discuss James’ article on “super-coaches”, does it matter that Arsenal don’t have one?

We pay tribute to a star of the 1971 Double winning side Ray Kennedy after his passing, and have a song to end.
