Summary
In this episode I'm joined Phil Costa to discuss our 4-0 win over PSV in the Champions League on Wednesday night. We chat about the team line-up; Bukayo Saka scoring his first CL goal on his debut appearance in the competition and his statistically impressive season so far; Leandro Trossard getting on the scoresheet again; a big performance from Gabriel Jesus who also got a goal; Martin Odegaard's trademark; the importance of the defensive platform we have to be able to attack as well as we did; Arsenal returning to the Champions League with a bang, and more.
We also have a quick chat about some of the highlights from week 1 of the Champions League.
