Wolves 0-2 Arsenal Reaction | Arsecast Extra

In this episode we look back on the 2-0 win at Wolves on Saturday evening which put us back on top of the Premier League.
We discuss how Arsenal had to dig deep after a difficult week, but put in a performance that belied the tired legs, despite the fact we had to wait until late to seal the three points. We chat about Leandro Trossard's goal, whether Wolves should have had a red card, David Raya's excellent save, and how Mikel Arteta asked a lot of key men like Odegaard, Rice and Saka and how they delivered. Then we answer questions about goals from set-pieces, which position should be prioritised in the summer transfer window, how the manager rotates his squad (or chooses not to), and lots more - including details of our end of season live podcast event with our friends from the ArsenalVision podcast.

I think the lack of rotation reflects the lack of comfort we've had towards the end of matches recently. I think he missed the chance earlier in the year when we were comfortable in matches but still didn't rotate. Now he's made a rod for his back and can't because of the importance of all 3 points, IMO.

Lol. I figured out that J lives in Muswell Hill. 🤣🤣🤣

[@hawkwind77]

Best podcast on any format 👌

[@KarltonFranz]

Watched the highlights of our first game against Everton this season and Viera balled out. Anyone else remember him?

[@mateodigsvinyl684]

Not ringing any bells😅

[@nikolaykrustev3679]

I’m here for the outro!

[@afuincolor3245]

Ya nailed it with the saka saga! The lads will be just fine. Super fit players. 💪🏻💯

[@PatrickWaltersandpoetry]

Im on Nottingham Forests side with the refs. Idk about the VAR being a Luton Fan, but if a pen should be given and it isn’t, youre correct to be aggrieved, especially when the overall refereeing level is ridiculously poor. Officials ARE poor and ARE biased. We need better ones, and we need to support other clubs when they complain.

[@kunimitsune177]

Forest are also threatening to sue Sky because Gary Neville said some-nothing. They've also chatted some shit about their rule-breaking. I think they're earning a reputation as a bunch of prats, so people aren't really taking them seriously. They have a point about the blatantly bent officiating in this country though and I'm on board with them calling it out, but they've probably gone about it in the wrong way.

[@chris94kennedy]

im just scared of our ability to play out of form teams back into form over the course of 90 minutes. Watch Casemiro have a stunning performance against us, for no good reason.

[@jbye14]

Kiwior was solid I think Gabriel put him in some difficult positions as his decision making sometimes to either chest the ball or header the ball to a team mate in the back four last few games been terrible

[@Dardzzz93]

I agree, plus when Saliba gave away the ball on the edge of the box, no one mentioned that. A bit of bias with which players are getting scrutinised for these types of mistakes.

[@triptwo425]

Yeah Gabriel was to blame for putting Kiwior under pressure.

[@thewisetzar5363]

Play Partey with Rice as it gives Rice the license to bomb forward and Odegaard gets his progressive passes. Partey is a line breaker and teams like Spurs/Chelsea/United will be wary regarding that when they attack us in transitions.

[@virupakshawalla5734]

If he is fit enough and the dangerous rust has fallen off. He could easily end our challenge with a fook up

[@virupakshawalla5734]

I never had a great fear for that game when I saw how many Wolves players missing. Chelsea I fear, Spurs I fear. Beat them and I re ingage with winning it. But we tendcto come back and then wilt again when the bums get sweaty. We dominated but still had thet slightly toothless-lack of conviction in finishing. None of Jesus Havertz Martinelli or Saka look very dangerous. One or 2 really needed to get into form for this run in. Yes commentary saying tight etc. What a lot of bollocks. OF course at 1-0 you can easily lose a goal and they had 10 mins towards end but it was hardly close. We came again and could have had 3 or 4 in last 10.

[@virupakshawalla5734]

Iwobi was instrumental in first 2 Liverpool goals and Leno could have saved 3rd lol. Spiteful and petty buggers 😢😂

[@damienfriel9530]

Or is Pep complaining about fatigue just to fool the competition into thinking so and therefore being a little complacent! Just saying. 🤔 He’s a clever man!

[@arjitjere1559]

I agree with Andrew about Arteta comments vs Nottingham forest comments...only the latter comments suggested ref corruption

[@GHESLOP]

I think a lot of what we decide to do in the market will be dictated by what arteta believes Jesus role will be . Outside of that we need something in midfield.

[@virupakshawalla5734]

Tommy injured again is like wtf is the point 😢. L9ve Tommy but really is he ever getting fit.

[@troy8420]

Yeah, really not sure we should have extended his contract

[@virupakshawalla5734]

Our set piece delivery has dropped off, esp Rice who was executing brilliantly for a bit.

[@KarltonFranz]

I think it's more so teams have caught on. It was our reputation for a while there

[@virupakshawalla5734]

Sue is an option

[@HerzIRL]

But if the ref has openly said he’s a Luton supporter shouldn’t that qualify as conflict of interest? Like I hate when the Pool fan ref is in-charge of Arsenal games. You are asking a lot of supporters to simply ignore those factors.

[@bedokboy75]

Tierney and most PGMOL refs will never send a man off for Arsenal

[@virupakshawalla5734]

Whole refereeing body needs dissolved and replaced. Some refs get rehired but theybare trained and monitored properly. The standard is unacceptable. Its a closed shop of small minded twats with bias. Clatenburgh probably telling Forest whatvreally goes on but can't be said.
