In addition to our weekly pod, we have a Champions League special too.

How do we think Arsenal will line up against PSG on Wednesday night?

How will Arsenal fare against a strong PSG side?

After an intriguing 1-1 draw away at the Parc des Princes on matchday one, it’s finally time for Arsenal to host Ligue 1 champions Paris-Saint Germain, in a fixture that could very well settle who tops Group A and potentially gets an easier opponent in the last 16 after Christmas.

It’s been confirmed that Angel Di Maria will be able to face Arsenal on Wednesday.

PSG manager, Unai Emery, has explained the importance of the Champions League clash against Arsenal on Wednesday.

As you were no doubt told when you first started watching football, going in 0-0 at half time of an away game is no bad thing.

Petr Cech was interviewed post-match at Old Trafford and gave a glowing reference to Olivier Giroud.

Paris Saint-Germain manager Unai Emery has publicly revealed that Ángel di Maria’s first-half substitution during their 2-0 win over Nantes on Saturday was a precaution, ahead of their trip to north London in midweek.

Among the talking points after Arsenal’s draw at Old Trafford was the midfield partnership of Coquelin and Elneny.

Following his impressive display against Sunderland last time out, Jack Wilshere continued where he left off with another standout playmaking performance as Bournemouth narrowly prevailed away against Stoke on Saturday.

Alexis Sanchez started against Manchester United but was far from him best. The reasons why are pretty obvious

Unlike the first-team side before the international break, Steve Gatting’s u23 side were victorious over their north London counterparts in an impressive manner away from home.

Arsene Wenger explained his team selection after his side’s draw with Manchester United, stating that he picked his team based on ‘experience and fight’.

Despite Manchester United’s dominance for large periods at Old Trafford on Saturday lunchtime, Arsenal responded well after going behind to Juan Mata’s 68th minute strike to snatch a last-gasp point, in no part thanks to their subs.

To say that Arsenal underperformed against Manchester United would be akin to saying water is a little bit wet.

Shkodran Mustafi continued to impress at the back for Arsenal as he continued his unbeaten start to live as an Arsenal player by, once again, being their top passer.

A draw at Old Trafford is better than a loss

Arsenal’s defence is causing Arsenal fans more problems than the impending World War 3 that’s coming our way after Donald Trump was elected.

Jose Mourinho looked absolutely disgusted that his side had not been able to beat Arsene Wenger’s men on Saturday at Old Trafford.
