Summary

James McNicholas and Adrian Clarke join Ian Stone to look back on a Cup win against Crystal Palace.

Gabriel Jesus owned the night scoring a hattrick to send Arsenal through to the semi finals of the Carabao Cup. After a terrible first half, Arteta brought on Martin Odegaard who ignited the match and brought it under Arsenal's control.

Plus it's been five years since Mikel Arteta took the reins at the club. We discuss how the club has changed in that time and what is needed to push on further. Clue: it's silver and sparkly.

And we hear your suggestions for some half time music. *If you're on Spotify you can vote on your favourite
