Pete’s a little hungover. Matt’s fresh as a daisy. They’re both in London and they are absolutely ready for the biggest Monday night in Arsenal’s recent history. Two games to go. The title is in our hands.
Here’s what’s inside:
🔥 Hottest of Takes — Matt thinks it’s going to the last day and the parade needs to pipe down. Pete has his eye on a midfielder who’s had a brilliant season but whose body language over the last few months has started to tell a story nobody’s been talking about enough
🧠 Zubimendi — Keep or Sell? — Pete raises it, Matt defends him with a stat about minutes played that puts it all in context. Could Myles and Zuby splitting time be the formula next season?
🎭 Pep Is Leaving — confirmed. Pete and Matt pay their respects to the greatest manager of the Premier League era and ask who on earth fills that void. Matt makes the case that City get weaker immediately. Pete agrees
⚡ Alonso to Chelsea — the biggest managerial shock of the summer. Pete and Matt go through why he’d choose the circus over Liverpool, whether Chelsea immediately become title contenders, and what it means for the league next year
🎩 Carrick, Man United and the League Next Season — United look like United again. Matt has three players he wishes Arsenal had signed. Pete is starting to get slightly nervous about next year already
🔮 Predictions — Matt goes 5-0. Pete goes 6-0. Both want Gyökeres to run riot. Both want a statement
Editor’s note: Matt suggests Bournemouth have nothing to play for on Tuesday night — this aged badly. Bournemouth are fighting for sixth place and a Champions League spot. Very much something to play for.
