Summary
In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to discuss Arsenal's Europa League exit at the hands of Sporting CP. We chat about the team selection, going ahead in the first half, but also the impact of picking up two injuries and having to make two changes in that period. There's discussion of the second half, not winning our duels, midfield being a bit lightweight, and the goal that Sporting scored – before we do extra-time and penalties, Martinelli missing and Ramsdale not making a save. Looking for silver linings regarding our Premier League title challenge rounds out the episode.
