Summary

On this edition of the ArsenalVision Podcast, Elliot is joined by Clive and Paul, to discuss Arsenal’s win over Wolves on opening day. The pod starts with the excitement for the new season and managing expectations when the points target is so high. There’s also a bit on what happened around the league. Then the conversation moves on to the lineup and first half performance which started a bit slow but warmed up nicely. There’s praise for several players who shined in the first half and analysis of the beautiful Kai Havertz goal. Then the pod moves on to a more uneven second half performance and how fatigue and sloppiness conspired to make the game feel uncomfortable. Included in that discussion is the midfield dynamic and what works and what doesn’t work and how it should be tweaked and whether certain players need to be reassessed. Raya’s important saves are covered and Saka’s goal is analyzed along with his ability to constantly make the critical contribution. There’s a bit on the important refereeing decisions as well. Finally there’s a bit on the substitutes and a quick Look at the transfer market and emerging opportunities there. All that and more on this edition of the ArsenalVision Podcast.

Happy new season, everybody.

Your instant reaction is up over on Patreon if you want it.

We touched on touching butts and throats, and we'll probably touch

on that a little bit today, along with how we played, who played well, what it means for the

rest of our season. If we will indeed win all 38 games, and if not, does McHellar-Teda have

to go? It's a pretty simple question. Are we signing Ilklai Gundawan? I don't think so, but maybe we'll talk about that because transfers are more interesting than football. True story on social media, I put out just, hey, give me some topics you want us to discuss about the game yesterday. And all of the replies are about anything but the game yesterday. They're like, what about Gondwan? Are we assigning Ivan Tony? What's going to happen with Enketea? What do you think about Villa? It's crazy how many people have overlooked this Wolves game. And I think maybe that explains a little bit of some of the reaction to it as well. You will, though, be stuck with a rewatch of the Wolves game this week over on Patreon. That means we put the game on the screen.

1:44.4

You watch it.

1:45.1

You see it. We analyze it. We break it down so you can think about it differently. And I'll explain why I think that's so important in a moment. You will get the first power rankings episode of the season on Patreon this week as well, where we basically rank the big eight clubs now, right, in terms of where we think they sit at this current moment, not in the table, but in our estimation. So there's a lot going on there.

1:44.0

We'd love to have you there. But... eight clubs now, right, in terms of where we think they sit at this current moment, not in the table, but in our estimation.

2:02.6

So there's a lot going on there and we'd love to have you there.

1:58.7

But we are just thrilled to have you here because we love you. And we are excited to share this season with you. And I am excited to share this moment with Paul. You can find him on Twitter at Posmo Pansel Pazzo. Woohoo! And Clive, you find him on Twitter.

1:59.6

Clive Biosk, hello, Clive.

2:00.5

Hello, hello.

2:36.5

And remember, if you are not happy with the new season's music, we did set up an email address for it. Paul, what's your email again? I'm kidding. But yeah, send all your complaints to Paul. Please. Tim is over in Washington, D.C., the capital of the United States of America, lobbying Congress to, no, I'm kidding.

He is there to support the Arsenal women's football team, which beat their opponent yesterday.
