Summary
In this episode I'm joined by Tim Stillman to chat about the idea of rivalry in the wake of Man City beating Spurs, and whether that's something managers should pay attention to. We also discuss Mikel Arteta's influence on this Arsenal team and how fans bought into his communication, in contrast to how Tottenham fans reacted to Ange Postecoglou's comments. Then we consider the final day of the season, and how we've pushed City all the way with the outside chance of still winning the league.
Then Tim reflects on the Arsenal career of Vivianne Miedema who's departure was announced this week, as well as some chat about that decision, how it came to pass, and what might happen on the final day of the season.

| 0:25.5 | Arscast right here on Arseblog. How are you? Hope you're well. Thank you very much indeed as always for being here we are |
| 0:36.3 | into the final weekend of the season I know this is Thursday when you're listening to this but |
| 0:40.4 | we're heading into the final weekend of the season and where the fuck did the time go? |
| 0:46.9 | Where did it go? I'd like a VAR review to find out where the time has gone. |
| 0:54.1 | Yes, I realize the outcome would be ultimately unsatisfactory and take even more time, |
| 1:00.3 | but fucking hell. |
| 1:01.8 | It really doesn't seem like that long ago when we were back in August talking about |
| 1:06.8 | The season that lies ahead all the promise all the potential all the things that might happen what we could achieve |
| 1:18.0 | Could we get better could we improve could we go the distance in the title race this time around |
| 1:26.9 | the answer I think to all of those questions is yes of course there is one big big question unresolved to be decided on Sunday of course and look I think you know most people would have Manchester City as favorites for the title at this point |
| 1:36.8 | they just have to win a home game against West Ham a West Ham side by the way that have not kept a clean sheet in their last 17 |
| 1:47.0 | Premier League games. David Moyes is leaving, he said his goodbyes to the West Ham fans |
| 1:51.9 | at the London Stadium last weekend and |
| 1:53.8 | city as we know are just this relentless winning machine they haven't lost a game |
| 2:00.0 | since December in the Premier League so you would have to say the odds are pretty much |
| 2:06.4 | stacked in their favor. Nevertheless we are here we're in it it is the final day. |
| 2:15.9 | We have pushed them as hard as we can I think and this team deserves a huge amount of credit a huge amount of goodwill and love from the Arsenal fans for what they've done and what |
| 2:24.7 | they've produced over the course of this season there are always going to be |
| 2:28.6 | things that you look back on and you think if only this if only that but titles are decided over the course of 38 games and I think for the most part this has been a really, enjoyable campaign and one I hope that ultimately has a little twist at the end, |
| 2:48.5 | like if the Premier League season was written by the guy who did the sixth sense. |
| 2:54.1 | I see dead people. |
