Summary

Ian Stone is joined by Amy Lawrence and James McNicholas to discuss Arsenal's FA Cup exit to Man City on Friday night.

On the show the panel talk about the players who were brought in to the starting XI and the impact they made, the competition for places and the all important need for a defensive midfield replacement.

There's a debate on the Brighton to Arsenal transfer conveyor belt and why the prices are so high.

And we celebrate the signing of Gabriel Martinelli's new contract as well as Eddie Nketiah's brilliant rise.
