Pepe HITS OUT at Arsenal | Calvert - Lewin & Roque UPDATES | Arsenal 4-1 Leeds Reaction

·1 hr 5 min·5 clips

Arsenal have won seven straight games with nine cup finals left, but can they really start dreaming about the title?

The episode opens with the host celebrating Arsenal's 4-1 victory over Leeds, marking seven consecutive wins and looking ahead to the final nine 'cup final' matches of the season. He immediately shifts to broader Premier League news, discussing Brendan Rodgers's sacking from Leicester and Graham Potter's tenuous position at Chelsea, drawing a contrast to the visible progress under Mikel Arteta during Arsenal's own difficult period. A significant portion is dedicated to previewing the upcoming match against Liverpool, with an in-depth debate on whether to start the experienced Leandro Trossard or the direct Gabriel Martinelli, analyzing their attributes and Liverpool's defensive vulnerabilities. The host then critiques Arsenal's tendency to concede 'cheap goals' at home, using the Leeds concession as a case study to examine defensive lapses in transition. He reviews Arsenal news, including Nicolas Pepe's assertion that he could have been important for Arsenal this season and the report that loanee Nuno Tavares was kicked out of a Marseille training session. The episode delves into various transfer rumors, with Declan Rice repeatedly mentioned as a top midfield target, alongside links to Dominic Calvert-Lewin, Rafinha, and others. The host also shares statistical insights, noting Arsenal's strong away defensive record but poorer home defending compared to relegation-threatened teams. He reads quotes from Mikel Arteta and Gabriel Jesus, emphasizing the need to enjoy the title race. The discussion returns to squad planning, specifically the future of striker Folarin Balogun, weighing whether to integrate, loan, or sell him. The episode concludes with a final tactical thought on the Liverpool game, advocating for a smart, assertive approach rather than mere damage limitation, before signing off.
