83. Is Mikel Arteta still the right manager for Arsenal? | Season 24/25, Episode 10

TCF Sport

It's the Christmas episode of the TCF Sport podcast! Fittingly, we begin by talking about the recent Premier League sackings, asking if both Gary O'Neil and Russell Martin deserved more time at Wolves and Southampton respectively. With Eddie Howe and Sean Dyche the only two English managers left in the Premier League, we also discuss why we as a country lack world class managers and debate who the best English managers in the game currently are.
We then turn to the Carabao Cup, giving our views on the recent Quarter-Finals before looking ahead to the Semi-Final ties. Discussion on Manchester United, Chelsea and Liverpool follows, covering another injury for Mason Mount and our thoughts on where Marcus Rashford should go, Cole Palmer's ability and if Chelsea are in a title race, and whether Liverpool should be looking to move Darwin Nunez on next Summer.
The final part of the episode focuses on Arsenal. As Mikel Arteta has now been in charge of the club for five years, we start by reviewing his time in charge so far. We then turn to the form of Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli before debating how good Bukayo Saka actually is. We end our discussion of Arsenal with the question: is the club too reliant on set pieces?
Lastly, from both of us, we hope you have a very Merry Christmas and New Year. Thank you for supporting the channel and the podcast so far, it means a great deal as we continue to grow and put ourselves out there. There will be more content to follow in 2025, so stay tuned!
