Summary

Joining Ian Stone this week it's Art De Roche and Adrian Clarke to look back on the Sven Mislintat era when everything was just a little confused at the Emirates.

In order to make sense of it all we have a little game of Sven Mislintit or tat where we rate the eight players that came in under Sven's eye. It's also four years since Unai Emery's first match in charge of the gooners and we compare that team to today's.

Moving on to the big topic in The Athletic this week we talk about player roles and the various ways that they can be defined by focusing on Saka and Xhaka.

And finally it's all about captains, and one former captain who's going to be lighting up the ballroom this winter
