Arsecast Extra Episode 682 - 19.02.2026
In this hastily scheduled half of an Arsecast Extra, James and I look back at last night's horrendous 2-2 draw with Wolves at Molineux. We discuss the team selection, and how after making a great start, Arsenal failed to capitalise on Bukayo Saka's early goal. Despite going 2-0 up, we let it slip, and we analyse the goals we conceded, the unpleasant trends regarding our goal concessions this season, and how the defensive lapses are secondary to the fact that the attack looks so inhibited at this moment in time. We also wonder if that plays a part in the way the team played with fear in the second half, what it all means for the title race, the questions about our mentality, the growing sense of now or never for Mikel Arteta and, at the heart of it, a sense of frustration because we know this is a team capable of much better than we've been seeing of late.
