Arsenal 4-1 Newcastle reaction | Arsecast Extra

In this episode we look back at the impressive 4-1 win over Newcastle on Saturday evening.
We chat about how the Gunners took the game by the scruff of the neck from the very start, suffocating the visitors and not allowing them to play their game at all. We chat about the goals we scored in the first half and the second, Kai Havertz, Bukayo Saka, and how Arsenal continue to stamp their title credentials on the Premier League. Then we answer listener questions about Jakub Kiwior, potential ins and outs during the summer, Ben White being Ben White, chasing the leading pack as opposed to topping the table, and loads more, including some #pochout.

Kai is Arteta's Frankenstein creation, he's got a bit of everything and whilst it may still be a little raw at times, he is becoming quite a monster for us.

[@FreddyMacT]

That was probably the best start to a game that I've seen all season, the passing, the attack, the defense... like we dominated them from the get go and for once, scored a goal early. If we can keep healthy, it'll be a great run down to the final day.

[@AJDaEnvoy]

That intro was legendary: SAKA, SAKA, SAKA

[@SmoothOperador]

QUE GOLAZO, QUE GOLAZO

[@goonerpak2977]

In the 2001/2002 season around this time of the season it was a 3 horse race. 1st Liverpool ,2nd United and Arsenal were 3rd , there was only 3-4 points separating 1st and 3rd. That year our second last fixture was against United and we won at Old Trafford 1 nil thanks to Wiltord winning us the title in the process. The current scenario is uncanny to that season. Let's hope history repeats itself.

[@stockholm1752]

That intro was perfecto. Good ear, Andrew.

[@virupakshawalla5734]

Andy Townshend is still discussing how Newcastle can turn it around. He always talks about other team all the time no matter who unless we are having a nightmare lol. The commentary brought up the 4-4 with minutes to go. Think it's Clive Tyldesley commentator. It's not imagination they definitely bias against us. Other clown on is Beglin. That is what we have to put up with here. I am sure they will all pull a sick day for Everton game if we have won the league 😂

[@costascosta7464]

Saka Saka Saka to a funky 70's porno soundtrack - Love it!

[@virupakshawalla5734]

Nifty dink of keeper would have done too. Terrible touch in box also at one point but we are winning and Havertz has been important part of season. Let's hope he is keeping the icing for the run in... The lack of conviction is almost frightening though. I assumed Raya gloves had mechanical extension inside. 😢. He would be a fine wicket keeper. He doesn't cause anxiety me way Ramsdale did.

[@Ben_Gunner]

Love how we've slowly started to bully teams 😂

[@thacrypt223]

I love the intro music! It always makes me smile:D!

[@TuxedoSlim]

50:25 ffp.... Fit For Purpose maybe?

[@TheCu8tc]

Love the show guys and the Chelsea fan news roundup lol Fit for purpose?

[@alekseifedorov949]

everything arteta come up with works. so i was never in doubts with Kai Havertz from min 1. football is not a pure on the ball grace sport. it's also putting your long leg into opposition plans, like he did for 3rd goal and many more times, and many more other things. He's body is not for pretty dribbling and smooth finishing, but it's for effective team play.

[@patrickdawson6281]

This evening on London news, Magpie hunting has become a sport in North London, and South London experiences youth gang violence as the Reds send the Blues to St Ann's Hospital where specialist Dr Potchettino is taking a lead role. More at 9.

[@virupakshawalla5734]

Esr just on didn't play mid week. Doing a Rashford. I really think his mentality isn't Arteta Arsenal. Time ti move in in summer. Hope he gets a few goals to get his price up but it's surely time up. Nearly 2 years since Pl Goal tgey said

[@peppep1451]

39:24 yeah, sadly ESR let his mate run completely unbothered... and knows better... 3 months back on the bench, innit 😬😪🤣

[@GB-fk7eq]

Arsenal player ratings vs Newcastle: Raya - 7 White - 6 (lowest rated starter) Saliba - 7 Magalhães - 7 Kiwior - 8 Ødegaard - 7 Jorginho - 7 Rice - 8 Saka - 9 (motm) Havertz - 8 Martinelli - 7 Trossard - 6 Smith Rowe - 6 Nelson - 6 Nketiah - 6 Elneny - 6 (lowest rated player) Arteta - 9

[@MrAllenm94]

Surely that comentery was the goal against Burnley?

[@virupakshawalla5734]

Tommy Zinchenko Timber Kiwior and nrw left back. Someone would have to go. Zinchenko?

[@rexrickard6333]

More funk oh yeahh

[@GivingitRiz]

Jorgiho would have made no difference, the porto team put so much energy into getting something from Arsenal they where exhausted by the effort, following this at the weekend they got a 1-1 drawn against a mid table team. Like most teams who get a point or 3 against us.

[@wills.1978]

this one should have been called james' baby's first cast

[@thewisetzar5363]

Need maximum 9/9 points before we go to the Etihad.

[@hfn3778]

Need to root for Leeds United this Wednesday, having the Chelsea game postponed until May will add unnecessary pressure during the final month.

[@virupakshawalla5734]

Only time eill tell. Chelsea might keep getting better ​but they are cominginto some form. If we drop pointswe will wish its delayed if we smash them we will be happy. @@hfn3778

[@runningonemty8566]

😍

[@bedokboy75]

Maybe he means FFP = fit for purpose

[@alekseifedorov949]

40:05 more like disappointing from Nelson. Pass was 100% off

[@alekseifedorov949]

If Havertz deserves a rant about not finishing the 1 on 1, how come you didn't mention Benjamin's silly 1v1 defence episode against Isak which allowed him to get in shooting opportunity

[@trinigooner8865]

He got done RIDICULOUSLY EASY didn't he??😅 Was so annoying to see man! Lol

[@virupakshawalla5734]

It's almost in our hands if City take points off Liverpool we can only throw it away 😂.

[@gentleken7864]

A Liverpool/Man City draw and an Arsenal victory at City would be the best results all round from the two most important fixtures to go in the season.

[@virupakshawalla5734]

@@gentleken7864 but then we can only win it by goal difference if Liverpool win every game . If City win its ours to lose 😃🤪. But All in all its in the👜 😍. We are still third favourites 😄.

[@mateodigsvinyl684]

The worst thing about Kai, now a days, is that i have to listen to Shakira.

[@virupakshawalla5734]

Havertz is definitely a 9. 10+9+8 divided by 3. Or is it 11+8+9 divided by 3 is 9.33333333333333333333333333333333. The devils number 😢
