Postmatch podcast, my name is Alex Biddy on Twitter, Yankee Gunner. Hey look, top four, what's it top four? to mount this is the arsenal vision post match podcast my name is elizabeth bop me on twitter yanky gunner hey look top four what's a top four top six what's a top six it's a top seven baby yeah yeah we we can't we can't spend our way into the top four how we're supposed to to compete with the saudi sovereign wealth fund no no no no top seven you know what i've always Nations League. No, that's not a thing. Might as well be a thing. Eventually it'll be. Europa conferences like a trophy. Well, that may be the world we're living in, as crazy as it sounds. And we will discuss whether that is the case. Because the big story of the day is, of course, the takeover of Newcastle United by the Saudi. I guess it's called the public investment fund, which is their sovereign wealth fund, or at least 80% of it, is that takeover. We'll try to hit it from a few different angles. Obviously, there is sort of the ethics and morality angle, which you can't sidestep that, so we will definitely touch on that. I do want to get to the footballing angle, though, what it means for Arsenal on the table, what it means for our future and the power structure and the hierarchy of the Premier League. And then maybe we can get to some bits and bobs of Arsenal news to the extent that there's a time for it. And be, it exists, kind of a quiet time, of course, being the interlull. But this is big news. I think it also has maybe echoes of the Super League plan and maybe why that was rushed forward. And we can talk about that angle too because I have some thoughts on that that might be worth exploring or we might find that they are infantile, pure aisle, totally worthless and not worth discussing. We'll find that out with Paul. You can find him on Twitter. Pause my pants. I'll pause. Woohoo. And Cl Clive, you can find them on Twitter. Clyde, PFC. Hello, Clive. Hello.
