Summary
On this week's show I'm joined by Charles Watts of Goal to talk about Bukayo Saka's impressive performance for England at Euro 2020, the William Saliba situation and whether or not you can buy a good player too early, as well as the transfer window. We chat about what Arsenal might do, but I talk to Charles about covering it as a journalist, sources of information, the pressure from fans to know what's happening and when, and lots more.
Then we take a look at a big summer for Arsenal at youth/U23 level following the departure of Steve Bould. I talk to Jeorge Bird about his possible replacement, arrivals and departures, and who some of the bright young stars at Academy level are.
