    Here is exhibit A of modern football punditry: Honest and valid question not being answered due to incompetence and then trying to avoid the question by discrediting the questioner.

    No insight of value being delivered by B-grade footballers of the past with overemphasized accents and a host who waffles about.

      I’ve blocked ESPN-FC on Twitter to avoid their awful takes, don’t bring it here too.

        It’s what happens when British football banter tries to be ‘American’. Those ESPN guys talk themselves in circles. It’s the only podcast I’ve ever shut down in disgust (an early game when Havertz was topic du jour). They are all so unnecessarily aggressive with each other. They’ll all be on the same side and realize it’s not good rage bait so one turns on the other by twisting words…so anxiety inducing to listen to!

    Everyone is arguing about whether there should be too equal GKs or not when actually, it’s because Ramsdale wasn’t good enough and Arteta won’t come out and say Raya is clearly no.1 (even though he is) because he still wants Ramsdale to improve and fight for the spot like any sane manager would. They’re debating completely the wrong thing

    Fucking hell this is bottom of the barrel punditry. Who’s the host? Constantly laughing like a teenager and making unfunny digs at the Norwegian guy that no one else is laughing at.

    The point is totally fair and worth a conversation but the dynamic of this show is fucking awful. I couldn’t finish this.

    Don’t know why you’re all fussed. Media needs a controversial Arsenal topic once in a while. It was Havertz at the start of the season - that’s cooled down. Now it’s Raya/Ramsdale. In a few weeks, it might be Martin’s form. Who cares.

    We’ve seen our club go from the relative dumps back to almost elite status in a few short years. Who cares what the media says, they’re just trying to get a reaction out of yous.
