Summary

James McNicholas and Adrian Clarke join Ian Stone this week for a look at Mikel Arteta, Leandro Trossard and superstitions.

After James wrote about the end of the #ArtetaOut brigade, the panel discuss how the manage has evolved, the touchpoints that brought the club to where they are today, and whether he is a coach that players will want to come to the club for.

Following the news that Arsenal are looking at Brighton midfielder Leandro Trossard, James and Adrian debate how he might fit into the team and what he would be bringing with him as well.

And finally after we all punched the air when Casemiro got a yellow card, the team look ahead to the big one at the weekend against Manchester United.
