Arsenal spellbound by Newcastle, but Xhaka, Saka, Saliba and Gabriel apply their 'defence against the dark arts'

Arsenal spellbound by Newcastle, but Xhaka, Saka, Saliba and Gabriel apply their 'defence against the dark arts'

By The Athletic

Ian Stone is joined by The Athletic's Amy Lawrence and Art De Roche to reflect on Arsenal's 0-0 draw with Newcastle at the emirates, and what they can learn from the game. After a tense and emotional night at The Emirates, Newcastle's impressive defense came out on top, despite 17 shots and 67% possession from Arsenal. The panel discuss how the need for attacking depth was clear in this game, and how the team appear to have gained some emotional maturity by not rising to Newcastle's time wasting and rotational fouls. They also discuss the January transfer window and whether the club should hold out for Mykhailo Mudryk, after Shaktar turned down Arsenal's second bid. Produced by Jesse Howard.
