Summary
Amy Lawrence and James McNicholas join Ian Stone to look ahead to Arsenal’s home game against Nottingham Forest.
We also talk about the news that Patrick Vieira is the new manager of Italian side Genoa, and we wonder if this a step on the road towards the dugout at Arsenal for our former captain.
We then answer more of your questions about how the club are faring recruiting youth players and if there’s a space for Oleksandr Zinchenko in midfield in the future?
Produced by Steve Hankey.
