In this episode I'm joined by Phil Costa to look back at Arsenal's 2-0 win over Athletic Club on Tuesday evening. We chat about the Bilbao experience before delving into the match itself, Mikel Arteta's team selection, and a first half that was hard work for both sides. The game was blown open in the second 45 thanks to big contributions from two subs, and we discuss the impact of both Gabriel Martinelli and Leandro Trossard, before acknowledging the quality of our defensive platform, another impressive performance from Cristhian Mosquera, some overall thoughts on the result, and lots more.

| 1:07.2 | As you can probably tell, my voice is not in tip-top condition. You might think it's because |
| 1:13.0 | I was away, carousing around Bill Bow, having a great time at the game and in the city in general, |
| 1:19.4 | but really, that's not what it is. It's almost entirely down to the fact that we spent about |
