<p>In this episode we look back 1-1 draw with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge on Sunday. We begin with the team selection and the unexpected absence of William Saliba from the heart of the defence. How did that impact Arsenal, and did it mean the home side amped up what was already going to be an aggressive approach to the game? We assess the performances of both sides when it was 11 v 11, and then the horrendous challenge by Caicedo which saw him sent off which should have tilted the game firmly in our favour. It didn't quite play out like that as we fell behind before Mikel Merino's equaliser got us back level. The manager made changes, none of which really had much of an impact, and we try to analyse why the Gunners couldn't make the most of the man advantage, as well as what this point means in the title race. Then there are listener questions about London derbies, Ben White's lack of playing time, the potential changes for Wednesday's game against Brentford and lots more.</p><br><p><strong>EXCLUSIVE</strong> NordVPN Deal ➼ <a href="https://nordvpn.com/arseblog" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://nordvpn.com/arseblog </a>Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guarantee!</p><br><p><strong>Get extra bonus content and help support Arseblog by becoming an Arseblog Member on Patreon: </strong><a href="https://www.patreon.com/arseblog" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://www.patreon.com/arseblog</strong></a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
