Hello and welcome to a brand new Arsblog arscast right here on arsblog.com.

How are you?

Hope you well.

Thank you very much indeed, as always, for being here.

Interluls, the bane of our lives.

How dare you call the interlull a bane of your life, Mr. Arsblock?

But seriously, the bane of our lives.

They're gone until March.

Not forever, but until March.

And that can only be a good thing because it means it's all Arsenal all of the time between now and then.

And there's a lot of football to play.

Are we going to have any players to play that football?

Well, your guess is as good as mine.

We'll find out maybe, maybe from Michel Artetta when he meets the press tomorrow.

But from an interlull perspective, there was a big, big injury, big story, obviously,

regarding Gabrielle and the fact that he's going to be out for a little while, anyway,

maybe up to two months, which is far from ideal.

So that's something obviously that we will discuss in this particular episode.

Other bits and pieces going on during the interlull as well, including a big moment for a former gunner. A long-injured

player is back in training, and could they potentially help fill the gap while we're waiting

for others to come back? We look at the schedule. We talk about how Michel Artetta might try and rotate,

given the difficulty of some of the fixtures that we face and how important they all are. Tough job being a manager, but that's why you get paid the big bucks, I guess. So we might as well just crack on with today's show with me to discuss all of that from football London and, of course, the Gooner Talk TV. It is Tom Canton. Good morning, Tom. Good morning. How are you doing, Matt? You good, you're good, you well. I'm all right. How are you,
