James returns from his travels with – no surprise here – news of misfortune falling him on his trip. We try and make sense of what has been a remarkable month for Arsenal in the transfer market, with Theo Walcott, Olivier Giroud and Alexis Sanchez gone, and the arrivals of Henrikh Mkhitaryan and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Has it been a good window? Why was there no focus on reinforcing midfield or defence? And how are we going to address those issues with what's now a smaller squad? We then answer listener questions about Granit Xhaka, Alexandre Lacazette, a potential new manager after links emerged this morning, how to cope without the handsomeness of Giroud and lots more.
