Tabs is joined by special Christmas guest Steff from The North Bank Pod (@northbankpod) to break down Arsenal’s tense and very on trend 2–1 win over Brighton — a match full of chances, missed chances, defensive chaos, and one world‑class save that kept the points at the Emirates. They discuss Odegaard’s superb opener, Gyökeres’ frustrating finishing, the ongoing injury crisis in defence, and the nervy spell that nearly cost Arsenal control. With Brighton threatening late and Arsenal underperforming their xG yet again, the pair explore whether this is simply variance or a growing concern. They also look ahead to a huge clash with Aston Villa, where both teams’ statistical trends could collide in dramatic fashion.

Tabs and Ian jump on live moments after Arsenal grind out a tense 1–0 win at Everton's new Hill Dickinson stadium on Arteta’s sixth anniversary in charge. It wasn’t pretty, it wasn’t fluid, and it certainly wasn’t comfortable — but Arsenal leave Merseyside with three points after a thunderous Viktor Gyokeres' penalty settled a scrappy, low‑quality affair. The pair break down a game where Everton created almost nothing, Arsenal struggled for rhythm, and nerves crept in late on despite near‑total control. From Trossard’s big miss to Gyökeres’ penalty moment, Tarkowski’s antics, and Jesus’ impact off the bench, this instant‑reaction pod captures the relief, frustration, and small positives from a hard‑fought away win.
🎙️ Topics covered:
• Arsenal’s 1–0 win at Everton and why it felt more stressful than it should have
• Gyokeres' emphatic penalty and the bizarre handball that led to it
• Everton’s lack of threat and Arsenal’s dominance after the goal
• Trossard’s huge missed chance and concerns about finishing
• Gyökeres’ performance: penalty composure vs ongoing questions
• Jesus’ cameo and his hold‑up play in key moments
• Tarkowski’s constant moaning and Everton’s physical approach
• Arsenal’s slow tempo, sloppy passing, and attempts to control the game
• The nervy late free‑kick and VAR moments
• Line‑up reflections and why it made sense
• Mental resilience, game management, and the importance of grinding out wins
• We also preview the game v Palace in the Quarter Finals of the EFL Cup - how much do we want to win this trophy?

Tabs is joined by Kuziva and Jamie to reflect on Arsenal’s 3–0 win away at Club Brugge, making it six wins from six in the Champions League group stage. The conversation centres on squad rotation, with Nordgaard filling in at centre‑back and Rice/Timber rested and the different profiles of Gyökeres versus Jesus. They debate Gyökeres’ output, Jesus’ emotional return from injury, and how Arsenal managed the game despite conceding more shots on target than usual, and stats showing both dominance and vulnerability. The trio then look ahead to what should be a a comfortable, goal laden win v Wolves in the late evening kick-off on Saturday.
