0:00.0	The Athletic.
0:09.6	The only way to score is, of course, to play with a handbreak-off.
0:18.1	Hello, this is Handbreak-off, the Arsenal podcast, brought to you by The Athletic Now, here in the UK,
0:24.4	we're currently sheltering from the blazing sunshine as we endure the highest temperatures in this country since weather began.
0:32.0	But we've found a place where the equipment won't melt and will soldier on until we will expire from heat exhaustion.
0:38.5	Now, what really, what I'd really like to do is talk you through my five goals and four assists at five aside last night.

1:48.8	Then a few subs and had to go to right wing and a few sprints in behind and I was finished.

2:00.4	And yeah, my brain's a bit too frazzled to go beyond that no no no
