  • Inside the Away End, Social Cam Chaos & Arsenal Keep Marching On
    May 14 2026
    Josh is joined this week by Arsenal Social Media Editor Gianluca Freschi, who steps in for Frimmy and there’s plenty to discuss after another huge week in Arsenal’s season. The pair relive the nerve-shredding 1-0 win over West Ham at London Stadium, with Gian giving his perspective from inside the away end as Leandro Trossard’s late winner sent Arsenal supporters into chaos. From David Raya’s huge saves to the tension surrounding West Ham’s disallowed equaliser, the hosts reflect on an emotionally draining afternoon. Josh also shares insight from inside the dressing room after full-time and discusses one of his favourite pieces of Arsenal social content — the pitchside celebration footage after Trossard’s goal that put supporters right in the middle of the chaos. There’s also reaction from the match-winner himself, as Trossard reflects on the decisive goal and Arsenal’s mindset heading into the final weeks of the season. Elsewhere, there’s a preview of episode two of Declan Rice’s Raising the Bar series, featuring a trip to McLaren HQ with Formula One star Lando Norris. Another huge week. Another huge episode.
