In this episode I chat to Nick Ames from the Guardian about the importance of Arsenal's opening day win against Crystal Palace, players returning from injury, transfer market needs, and Granit Xhaka.

Then to chat football stats, how they're collected, the influence they've had on the game, how they've developed over the years, what xG has meant for long-range shooting, and lots more, it's Rob from Opta (better known as Orbinho on Twitter).
