Summary
In this episode I'm joined by Andrew Allen and Ryan Hunn to discuss Arsenal in the wake of the Crystal Palace game. We chat about issues of identity and football style, confusion over the way Mikel Arteta wants his team to play, the dreaded handbrake and what exactly that means, our issues with possession feeding into other problems we have in terms of creativity and goalscoring, why we don't press – especially this season, and lots more, including some things to be positive about!
We also have the winners of our SuperClub competition from last week - superclubgame.com

| 1:06.2 | Well yeah that's just a little gag about my memory which is terrible but look it makes |
| 1:10.4 | for a strange week it's been a strange week overall anyway because of well the Crystal |
| 1:14.8 | Palace game. |
| 1:16.6 | One of those that on reflection like I think there was a perception afterwards that Crystal |

| 1:31.3 | be fair I think you have to give Palace some credit for or just putting a little bit of |
| 1:36.6 | pressure on some pressing some organization high up the pitch force the mistake on Thomas |

| 1:42.7 | There was a tackle a bit of pressure on Albert Sammy Lacongo who gave the ball away |
