And breathe... Arsenal don't make it easy for us, do they? After an incredibly frustrating first 80 minutes, Mikel Arteta's Fix it Force™ got the job done, coming away from the City Ground with a 1-0 win.

Remember last season at Nottingham Forest? Yeah, but those days are long behind us. Aren't they?

Luke, Jim and Jonny discuss Sunday's examination in the Midlands and reflect on Mikel Merino's remarkable piece with the Player's Tribune – and even more remarkable red mobility scooter. Yes that's right, red.

We also discuss the proposed 60 job cuts at the club and what it says about the ownership, the meaning of 'community', and what we want Arsenal to be.

Seven minutes of beautiful carnage, that's all it took in the end. Jim was there to see it all inside the Emirates! He sits down with Jonny post-match to relive a performance that went from stodgy to magnetic very, very quickly.

They discuss Mikel Arteta's rotated lineup, Bukayo Saka's remarkable cameo, and Jurrien Timber becoming prime Dennis Bergkamp. Or Romario. We can't decide on the two.
