David Raya: Difference Maker

from Handbrake Off: The Athletic FC's Arsenal show

Art de Roché and Nnamdi Onyeagwara, making his Handbrake Off debut, join Ian Stone to discuss Arsenal’s 1-0 win away to Sporting CP in the quarter-final first leg of the Champions League on Tuesday.The panel reflect on the impressive result, a controlled away performance, David Raya potentially being Arsenal’s player of the year after another outstanding display, squad depth as the finishers combined for the winner, the players not looking nervous despite the fans understandably feeling so, the attacking play needing to be more adventurous and whether fatigue is impacting it. Plus, we hear from James McNicholas and Amy Lawrence out in Lisbon, look ahead to Bournemouth on Saturday, respond to some listener messages and we hear from Andre in Sydney, Australia in this week’s instalment of ‘Up Your Arsenal’.If you like the panel’s song choices, check out the ‘Now that’s what I call Handbrake’ playlist on both Spotify and Apple Music and listen to them all there: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6cgJk1eJwQBmiUJlSFZMJN?si=pMHHbBb8S8Ky5LtlKp7pHw&pi=Rra8NSxDRVm58&nd=1&dlsi=62f2d7c1c10045acApple Music: https://music.apple.com/gb/playlist/now-thats-what-i-call-handbrake/pl.u-d2b00jZuDxWk6PProducer: Robby Williams Hosted on Acast.
