Arsenal FC Podcasts

Coverage here is thin and episodic. Arsenal usually appears inside a wider match-week conversation rather than as the sole subject: title-race pressure, European results, criticism, or an opponent’s post-match reckoning. The clearest listens are therefore useful snapshots, not a comprehensive run through the club.

The weekly football conversation

For an easy, conversational entry point, The Rest Is Football folds Arsenal into the wider schedule. Languid Liverpool, Olise On Fire & A Pivotal Week for Arsenal treats the club as one part of a busy week, while Port Vale Heroics, Magical Max & Arsenal's Unfair Criticism points toward a debate about how the team is discussed.

Football Weekly (Guardian) offers another broad-football route. Saints stun Arsenal and what now for Slot after Liverpool's painful exit? - Football Weekly pairs the Arsenal result with Liverpool’s troubles, so expect a roundup rather than a single-club deep dive.

Previews, Europe and supporter arguments

The most direct fixture preview comes from The Athletic FC Podcast with The Preview: Arsenal vs Man City. Its measured panel format suits listeners who want the matchup placed under pressure and examined from several angles.

For European context, Ranks FC - A Football Podcast includes Arsenal among the night’s major stories in Champions League Takeaway: Arsenal Stay Perfect, Lightning Strikes City, Madrid Hit Six & Everything Else. The appeal is comparison: Arsenal’s result sits beside City and Madrid rather than inside a club-only discussion.

A more invested supporter voice comes from The Chronicles of a Gooner - Arsenal Podcast. 'This isn't going away' - The Arsenal agenda & Mansfield (a) preview promises argument about the conversation surrounding Arsenal, followed by the practical business of the next match.

There are useful outside views too. Straight Outta Cobham: The Athletic FC's Chelsea show processes the result from Chelsea’s side in Palmerless and toothless in Arsenal defeat - while CFCW lift the League Cup. Football Social Daily goes for the sharper debate prompt in Are Arsenal crumbling, Liverpool smashed as Salah struggles and Chelsea ban Fernandez.
