137: “One Nil to The Arsenal: Fulham Recap + Atlético Madrid Preview”

🎙 Episode 137 — “One Nil to The Arsenal: Fulham Recap + Atlético Madrid Preview”

Arsenal keep marching on — another 1-0, another clean sheet, another weekend top of the Premier League.
In this episode, the lads break down the Fulham win that had all the hallmarks of a title-winning side: control, resilience, and that old-school “One Nil to The Arsenal” energy.

Gav, Ells and Jus dive into:

How Arsenal shut Fulham out without conceding a single shot on target — the first time that’s happened since the Invincibles.
Bukayo Saka’s ridiculous form and why he’s carrying himself like a Ballon d’Or contender.
Trossard’s strange super-efficiency and the ongoing debate around Gyökeres up top.
Why VAR keeps rewriting its own rules (and Ells’ weekly rant about it).
Declan Rice, Zubimendi, and the ever-growing aura of this backline.

Then it’s all eyes on Europe as we preview Arsenal vs Atlético Madrid at the Emirates — a proper Champions League night.
The crew discuss:

What to expect from Diego Simeone’s side and how Julian Álvarez changes their threat level.
The tactical matchup between Arteta and Simeone — press vs pragmatism.
Predicted line-ups, key duels, and why Mikel Merino might be the wildcard.

There’s also a whip-around the weekend’s Premier League drama — Liverpool’s excuses, Jamie Carragher losing the plot, United somehow winning, and another chaotic VAR round-up.

It’s The Non-Negotiables: Arsenal talk with edge, humour and zero fluff.
