Advantage Arsenal but should the tie be done & dusted?

Handbrake Off: The Athletic FC's Arsenal show

Art de Roché and James McNicholas join Ian Stone to discuss Arsenal’s 3-2 win away to Chelsea in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg on Wednesday night. 


The panel reflect on their disappointment that the lead wasn’t bigger going into the second leg despite the win, Arsenal’s aggressive pressing, a good night for White, Gyokeres’ improved performance, Zubimendi’s attacking dimension, how the substitutes affected the game, the differences between Kepa and Raya, and the atmosphere in the away end.


Plus, they discuss Per Mertesacker leaving his academy role at the end of the season, they look ahead to the match against Nottingham Forest on Saturday and we hear from Natasha from Trinidad & Tobago in the latest instalment of ‘Up Your Arsenal’.
