Why Arsenal need Eze’s individualism

Handbrake Off: The Athletic FC's Arsenal show

Amy Lawrence and Adrian Clarke join Ian Stone to discuss Arsenal’s 1-0 win at home to Newcastle on Saturday.


The panel reflect on the anxiety of the game, another cautious performance, Havertz’s importance to how the team play underlined by his injury, the difficulties of getting the right balance in attack this season, an honest conversation about Gyokeres, Eze’s importance in delivering big moments and trying to make sense of the persistent injury problems at the club.


Plus, they respond to listener messages, congratulate Arsenal Women on their victory in the UWCL semi-final first leg and look ahead to a crucial ten days starting with the semi-final first leg against Atletico Madrid in the Champions League on Wednesday.
