In this episode I'm joined first by Tom Canton to discuss Arsenal's 1-0 win over Brighton on Wednesday evening. The Gunners turned a shaky start into an early goal, and we chat about the key moments of the game played in a heated atmosphere. There's analysis of our second half substitutions, big defensive performances from Gabriel and Piero Hincapie, the comments pre and post game from Fabian Hurzeler and Mikel Arteta's response to them, and Man City dropping points to Nottingham Forest in what feels like a pivotal night in the title race.

Then it's a pleasure to welcome Ian Wright back to the show, to discuss the unique pressures that come at this point of a season, his experiences of it as a player and now as a fan, the media narrative that surrounds Arsenal from all sides, and Bukayo Saka making his 300th appearance for the club.
