Summary
In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa. It's been a quiet week from an Arsenal perspective, but we chat about the Europa Conference League final, West Ham's win and how quickly our interest in Declan Rice might turn into something more substantial than rumour. We also discuss other midfield outgoings and what that might say about who else is coming in, raising money through departures, Lionel Messi turning down a move to Saudi Arabia to go to Miami and MLS, and lots more.
