Tony Doe delivers the post-Villa therapy we all need after that gut-punch 2-1 loss.

One bad night doesn't collapse the project. The media and AFTV want meltdown clicks, we're not giving it to them.

The real issue? Sometimes it's us: the overreactions, the toxicity, the instant player-binning. A major trophy will quiet most of it, but perspective has to start now.

Ødegaard isn't prime De Bruyne and never will be. The captain still owes us big moments, and that 15-goal version is in there.

Lukas Podolski still bleeds Arsenal and says "something big can happen this season" under Mikel Arteta. When a World Cup winner talks like that, you listen.

Arsenal Women showed the men how: grit, depth, and Olivia Smith running the show for Player of the Match.

Tony's wife is now more invested than he is, and the kids have "North London is calling" on repeat.

One loss. Champions League next. Reset, refocus, we move.

Come on, you Gunners!

Arsenal smash Brentford to go 5 points clear! David Raya's insane save, Mikel Merino scoring for fun up front, Ben White MOTM & Mikel Arteta's fixture congestion rant. Plus Bible Boys culture and an original Gooner anthem! COYG!

Tony Doe reacts to Arsenal's gritty 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge after Moisés Caicedo's VAR-upgraded red card swung the momentum in this fiery London derby.

From the frustration of a set-piece slip-up gifting Chelsea the lead, to pride in a depleted Gunners side, patched-up backline and all, grinding out a point against 10-man Blues. Two dropped or a statement of resilience?

We break down:

- The overhyped Declan Rice vs Moisés Caicedo midfield duel that fizzled out

- Caicedo's reckless red on Merino: passion, liability, or just plain daft?

- New defensive duo: William Saliba out, so Hincapié & Mosquera thrown into the deep end, nerves, promise, and the burden of big-stage debuts

- Jurriën Timber's seamless evolution as the ultimate modern full-back: inverted threat, humility, and why he's title steel

- Classic media hypocrisy: Arsenal "cowardly" for holding firm at Etihad, but Chelsea "heroic" doing the same at the Bridge?

Arteta calls it a positive week, but the killer instinct in crunch ties? Still MIA. Standards raised, a point here shows progress amid the injury crisis.

Momentum building, haters seething.

Bukayo Saka takes the next step off the pitch, engaged to long-term love Tolami Benson. Saliba's celebrations are pure joy, Noni Madueke's words have gone viral, and Arsenal teams up with Paramount+ to bring global storytelling to the Emirates.

Arsenal didn't just beat Spurs, they delivered a lesson in control, confidence, and identity. In this episode of Up Gunners with Tony Doe, we break down the North London Derby, from Trossard's spark to Eze's finishing touch, and what it reveals about both teams' trajectories. We also unpack the end of Arsenal's £80m sleeve partnership with Rwanda after eight influential years, why renewal talks collapsed, and what this means for African sports branding. And yes, we close with a cheeky press-conference-style appeal to the players: enough with the knee-slide celebrations before someone's ACL files a complaint.

Perfect for Arsenal fans looking for smart insight, sharp humour, and context around one of football's most talked-about partnerships.

Arsenal's clean sheet run ends, but the fight continues. Tony Doe breaks down the Sunderland draw, Gabriel Jesus' long-awaited return, and the VAR drama from Arsenal Women vs Chelsea. Plus, a quick look at The Dispatch, Arsenal's new official podcast.
