Summary

This week Ian Stone is joined by Amy Lawrence and Adrian Clarke to talk all things Norway, numbers, and transfers.

All things being *at the time of recording* there's been no names just yet but since we last spoke the name Lisandro Martinez has picked up apace. Therefore asking the question, is Mikel Arteta all about versatility?

We hear about Amy's trip to Norway back in April as she found out all about Arsenal's MO - Martin Odegaard.

Plus there's a game of number association too

RUNNING ORDER

PART 3 - Arsenal’s MO: Martin Odegaard: 25.00
