Summary

On today's show I'm joined by James Benge to discuss the 5-1 win over Sunderland in the Carabao Cup. Contrasting fortunes for young strikers Folarin Balogun and Eddie Nketiah, but what does the future hold for both of them? Mikel Arteta wants Eddie to stay, but is there a better time for him to leave than next summer when he's out of contract? We also chat about Nicolas Pepe, a goalscoring debut for 18 year old Charlie Patino, and lots more – plus there's a bit of festive Holy God FM.

Because while for many Christmas is a time where you've got some holiday, some time
