In this episode I'm joined by Nick Ames of The Guardian to discuss the impact of Emile Smith Rowe and Bukayo Saka in the North London derby; what Mikel Arteta might do in the enforced injury absence of Granit Xhaka, his options, and how there's now a heavy onus on Thomas Partey in that area of the pitch; plus some chat about the manager after he's enjoyed some better days of late.

Then I chat to Tim Stillman about Arsenal Women and their incredible start to the season under new head coach Jonas Eidevall, how a behind the scenes review looks to have paid dividends, the Champions League, competition and rotation, the chances of extending some key contracts, and lots more.
