Summary

The Athletic's Arsenal correspondents Amy Lawrence and James McNicholas join host Ian Stone after Arteta's Gunners secured an actual Premier League win!... The trio discuss the new-look backline, how a tactical shift might hold the key to getting both Emile Smith-Rowe and Martin Odegaard into the same team AND a sliding doors moment which might have seen Patrick Vieira in the Arsenal dugout, instead of beating Spurs handsomely at Selhurst Park.

Plus, Amy and James revisit Laurent Koscielny's unpleasant North London exit.
