Amy Lawrence and Adrian Clarke join Ian Stone once again to bathe in the goodness that is three successive Arsenal victories. A far cry from this time last season!

On this episode we discuss the earworms of the Arsenal canon (songbook to you and me) from years gone by. We talk about why it is so remarkable that Saliba has hit the ground running given the build up to his debut in an Arsenal shirt.

There's some good vibes around the club, and good tactics too, Adrian has a look at how Zinchenko makes Xhaka better and we briefly imagine a world where it's Martinez and not Zinchenko in the squad.

All that plus a discussion on Bukayo Saka, the loanees, and we pay tribute to an Arsenal legend, Head Groundsman Steve Braddock who sadly passed away earlier in the week.
