For the second Sunday in a row, Arsenal were pegged back from 2-0 up to draw. We strode into the lead with two sublime goals in the first ten minutes, but never recovered from conceding a sloppy penalty. After the break Bowen made it 2-2 when he seized on a hopeful looping ball. It could […]

We have Ramsdale’s acrobatics, Liverpool’s profligacy, and a lot of last-ditch defending to thank for a draw, gouged from a punishing trip to Anfield.  We started off with confidence and style, striding to a two-goal lead, but were pegged back, first before half-time by Salah and then late by a Firmino header.  Liverpool’s momentum grew […]

Hello all, Today we look back at Leeds and forward to Liverpool, while worrying about the difficulty of the run in. Pedantic George.

Arsenal stuttered to a comfortable 4-1 win against Leeds on Saturday.

Hello one and all. On this podcast we look back on Saturday’s miracle and revel in it. There’s a little bit of analysis of the game, but mainly just to old fellas being happy. Pedantic George.

Deep in time added to stoppage time, Reiss Nelson gave us one of the great moments of the Emirates era, chesting it down and thwacking it home to seal a dazzling comeback win from two down.  Nelson’s goal sparked mass delirium, with the bench emptying onto the pitch, our captain collapsing to the turf, an […]
