1:41
everyone Charles waltz here welcome back to Inside
1:43
Arsenal it is Tuesday. I hope the week
1:45
is going well wherever you're watching or listening
1:48
to this around the world and what a
1:50
huge huge week it is Arsenal vs Realm
1:52
Madrid Champions League quarter final second leg at
1:54
the Bernabel now just under 48 hours a
1:56
way of up bright and early this morning
1:58
because I am flying out to Madrid heading
2:00
to Heathrow in just about an hour's time
2:02
and yeah it's gonna be a big one
2:04
absolutely gonna be a big one so I
2:06
am back now in the usual surroundings not
2:09
in my lodge at Centre Parks doing my
2:11
trying to do my shows for you and
2:13
yeah back last night out this morning off
2:15
to Madrid for just a huge huge game
2:17
Any of you who are heading over joining
2:19
me in Madrid, safe travels, I know quite
2:21
a few of you already got over already,
2:23
but loads and loads are going to be
2:25
making the journey today. So safe travels over
2:27
there, hopefully I'll see you on the streets
2:29
of Madrid, enjoying yourself before and after the
2:32
game on Wednesday night. So we're going to
2:34
talk about that in today's show, we'll look
2:36
at the injury news, latest injury news, one
2:38
out, one, hopefully. definitely in for us when
2:40
it comes to injury news when it comes
2:42
to at midfielders we'll talk about that we'll
2:44
look at what's been going on in Madrid
2:46
all the mine games beginning to start and
2:48
Chalotti apparently giving a stirring speech on Monday
2:50
after their game about how a comeback is
2:53
on and Bapay's done one Other senior players
2:55
have done one that's apparently drawn huge standing
2:57
applause from the players in the changer and
2:59
we're hearing all these sorts of story the
3:01
roof's going to be closed to make it
3:03
a cauldron-like atmosphere so all the mine games
3:05
have started ahead of Wednesday nights game so
3:07
we'll look at that as well and a
3:09
few other bits and pieces but we'll start
3:11
on the latest injury news when it all
3:14
kind of revolves around central midfield after the
3:16
game at the weekend. the one one draw
3:18
against Brentford Georgino obviously suffering what looked like
3:20
a really nasty sort of rib injury when
3:22
he fell awkwardly on his side and he
3:24
wasn't happy at all we tried to play
3:26
on he couldn't do it looks in real
3:28
real pain struggling to breathe and he is
3:30
definitely out according to John Cross in the
3:32
mirror he's had x-rays on that injury and
3:34
he's definitely out for tomorrow's game there is
3:37
hope that he will play again this season
3:39
which of course means he will play again
3:41
for Arsenal before he leaves in the summer
3:43
if not then that will be the last
3:45
time we'll see Georgie know which will be
3:47
a real shame if the last time we
3:49
see her on a pitch in an Arsenal
3:51
shirt is him struggling to breathe and having
3:53
to be helped off the game helped off
3:55
the pitch in that match against Brentford. Look
3:58
he wouldn't have started tomorrow night's game I
4:00
think we all know that providing everyone's fit
4:02
and available but it's really key player for
4:04
Arsenal you know you know experience for Arsenal
4:06
you know experience. players who get to experience
4:08
nights like Arsenal are going to have tomorrow
4:10
night in the Burnabout. Even with such a
4:12
commanding lead, you know, we know that things
4:14
can change like that and this is Ralph
4:16
Madrid, this is Champions League, you know, we've
4:18
seen him come back from seemingly... the absolute
4:21
impossible with just a few minutes to go
4:23
in games and they've somehow managed to turn
4:25
it around. You know, they've got four 90
4:27
minutes to do it on Wednesday night. So
4:29
no one's counting their chickens at all yet,
4:31
certainly not from an Arsenal point of view.
4:33
You know, yes, they're in a commanding position,
4:35
but the job is only half done. They've
4:37
got to go and see it through on
4:39
Wednesday night now. And round Madrid are going
4:42
to be all over them on Wednesday, on
4:44
Wednesday. No doubt about that. They're going to
4:46
be flying out. They're going to be flying
4:48
out. They're going to be flying out. They're
4:50
going to be flying out. They're going to
4:52
be flying out of the blocks. They're going
4:54
to have to have to have to have
4:56
to have to have to have to be
4:58
flying out. They're going to have to have
5:00
to have to have to have a. to
5:02
have him on the touchline, to have him
5:05
in the changing room, to have him on
5:07
the training ground in these next, sort of
5:09
in this, but today for the final session
5:11
yesterday, just on the plane, just that sort
5:13
of sounding board for players to be able
5:15
to talk to and to be able to
5:17
get experience from if needs be. He would
5:19
have been really, really crucial in that and
5:21
if he's not, you know, he's definitely not
5:23
playing obviously, according to John Cross, something else
5:26
playing the obvious, we could tell that by
5:28
the way he could, by the way he
5:30
went on the way he went on the
5:32
way he went on the way he went
5:34
on the way he went on the way
5:36
he went on the way, by the way
5:38
he went on the way, but, by the
5:40
way he went on the way he went
5:42
on the way, but, he went on the
5:44
way, but, he went on the way, he
5:47
went on the way, but, he's, he's, he's,
5:49
but, he's, he's, he's, he's, which maybe he
5:51
does make the trip just as a sort
5:53
of traveling squad party member to sort of
5:55
offer that experience which would be absolutely invaluable.
5:57
I doubt he will but we'll have to
5:59
wait and see on that. Michael Arteta's press
6:01
conference is going to be at 715 tonight
6:03
in the Burnabout. Hopefully I'll be there. Providing
6:05
my flight or goes on time and I'll
6:07
manage to get there and there'll be a
6:10
player speaking at that as well. Arsenal are
6:12
doing an open training session a little bit
6:14
later on today. I think 11 p. due
6:16
to start at London Colney so obviously we'll
6:18
see who's who's fit and who's not who's
6:20
available who's training or not there but I
6:22
think no one's expecting Georgina so yeah real
6:24
shame for him as well to miss out
6:26
and you know in his final few few
6:28
games of an Arsenal player you know this
6:31
is a massive game for him to burn
6:33
about being involved in that game so for
6:35
him to miss out first of all you
6:37
know even before you take Arsenal into consideration
6:39
it's a huge play for such an experience
6:41
player so yeah real shame no Georgino Georgino
6:43
for Arsenal. I've got that open training session
6:45
a little bit later on today. I'll probably
6:47
be sitting on an airplane by the time
6:49
that gets underway. So I won't really not
6:51
be able to see who's involved in who's
6:54
not. There'll be reports down there. There'll be
6:56
TV cameras down there for the sort of
6:58
first 15 minutes of that session. I am
7:00
expecting Thomas Party to be involved in that
7:02
session. From my understanding, he is going to
7:04
be making the trip to Spain. Well Georgino
7:06
doesn't make it, my understanding is Tom's party
7:08
will definitely travel, not saying he's going to
7:10
start, but... I think he will start. You
7:12
know, all the sort of soundings that I'm
7:15
getting is at times by is okay and
7:17
providing nothing happens between now and then he
7:19
should be, he'll certainly be in a squad
7:21
and I think he'll start, but we'll see
7:23
more at that training session a little bit
7:25
later on today in terms of whether he
7:27
is in the vault, he never know Michael
7:29
Artetta, will he put trumple the wall over
7:31
around with his eyes with her injury doubt,
7:33
just leave him out the training session for
7:35
the first half an hour, then bring him.
7:38
bring him in to get him involved once
7:40
all the cameras have gone but yeah my
7:42
understanding is that he is fit so I
7:44
fully expect him to be involved in that
7:46
training session a little bit later on today.
7:48
So this is a team that I'm I'm
7:50
I would be surprised and I will talk
7:52
about this morning tomorrow's show from Madrid after
7:54
speaking Artetta and later on when he sort
7:56
of gave their opinion his opinion on the
7:59
game and tactically all that sort of stuff
8:01
but i imagine this will be the starting
8:03
eleven i'll be very surprised if it's not
8:05
unless there's some sort of injuries that we
8:07
don't know about. So, you know, Ryan is
8:09
obviously going to go and go, go, I
8:11
think we don't know yet if Ben White
8:13
is going to be fit or not, we'll
8:15
find out that potentially at the open training
8:17
session a little bit later on today. It'll
8:20
be big if it is, it'll be good
8:22
news, you know, it's a real blow, not
8:24
having him at the weekend because that obviously
8:26
meant Thomas Party having to play it right
8:28
back, and all of that sort of stuff,
8:30
which we just don't want to want to
8:32
want to see Ben White fit and want
8:34
to see Ben White fit and want to
8:36
see Ben White fit and being able to
8:38
see Ben White fit and being able to
8:40
see Ben White fit and being able to
8:43
see Ben White fit and being able to
8:45
fit and being able to see Ben White
8:47
fit and being able to be fit and
8:49
being able to rotate and being able to
8:51
rotate that right fit and being able to
8:53
rotate that right fit and being able to
8:55
rotate that, during timber. So during timber is
8:57
obviously going to start this one, so I
8:59
think it will be timber, saliva, kivio and
9:01
luskelli, then you've got party odor, God, and
9:04
rice, obviously as the three, and sacramarino and
9:06
Martinelli. I don't really see our tetto strain
9:08
from that in any way if all of
9:10
those players are fit. I just think that's
9:12
a team that's going to start. and hopefully
9:14
the team that can write themselves into the
9:16
history books when it comes to Arsenal. Just
9:18
on round Madrid, you know, I talked about
9:20
this, you can see if you watch it
9:22
on YouTube, the picture here of the roof
9:24
close, they did this in the game against
9:27
Manchester City last season, at this, at this
9:29
game against Manchester City last season, at this
9:31
stage at a competition, didn't work in terms
9:33
of a result because it was three, three,
9:35
obviously, from an atmosphere point of view. They're
9:37
all big international players. They've dealt with hostile
9:39
atmospheres plenty of times before. So I don't
9:41
think the atmosphere is going to really sort
9:43
of derail them or anything like that. I
9:45
think if Arsenal are going to get derailed
9:48
in this game, it's going to be down
9:50
to Real Madrid's quality. rather than the atmosphere.
9:52
I can understand why they're doing it. They
9:54
want to try and get every single advantage
9:56
they can possibly get and it is going
9:58
to be massively loud in there, obviously it
10:00
is, but there is going to be thousands
10:02
upon thousands of Arsenal fans over in Madrid
10:04
for this one. Yes, you're going to have
10:06
the official way allocation, of course you are,
10:08
but there is going to be an Arsenal
10:11
all around that stadium. I know so many
10:13
people who are going to be in the
10:15
realm of Dread End. You think back to
10:17
2006 when on rescored that goal on rescored
10:19
that goal and ball went in. Arsenal were
10:21
everywhere in that ground. You saw them all
10:23
leap up. You heard them celebrating. It's going
10:25
to be exactly the same. So while it's
10:27
going to be loud from a realm of
10:29
good point of view. tomorrow night. It's also
10:32
going to be loud from an Arsenal point
10:34
of view tomorrow night. I think you're really
10:36
going to hear that traveling support tomorrow. Now
10:38
I'm going to need every single one of
10:40
them to be as loud as they possibly
10:42
can. And as I said, the sort of
10:44
mine games of Madrid is starting to get
10:46
you hearing it in the reports that are
10:48
coming out of Spain in the Madrid paste
10:50
papers about how they believe it's on. It's
10:52
going to be the remontana, you know, sort
10:55
of their version of what Barcelona stories dripping
10:57
out about the changing roof speeches and how
10:59
the players believe and all that sort of
11:01
stuff. Ultimately we're going to find out on
11:03
the pitch tomorrow night. You can have all
11:05
this sort of stuff leaking out in the
11:07
press before the game. You can have all
11:09
this sort of stuff leaking out in the
11:11
press before the game. You can maybe try
11:13
and unset to Arsenal and get into their
11:16
heads a little bit about what's going to
11:18
turn it around and how unbelievable the atmosphere
11:20
is going to be. But ultimately it's going
11:22
to be decided on that then are in
11:24
a fantastic position. And what a night, it
11:26
is going to be. Banking with Capital One

12:14
on tomorrow night of course when it comes
12:16
to a potential semifinal and I don't want
12:18
to get too far ahead of yourselves of
12:21
course an Arsenal got a job to do
12:23
to get themselves into that semifinal yet but
12:25
there is this sort of ongoing concern about
12:27
yellow cards and potential bans for the semifinal
12:29
should, I'm not saying when, but should Arsenal
12:31
go through to the semifinal. This is the
12:33
last stage where yellow cards really matter. in
12:35
terms of the sort of totting up process
12:37
to earn yourself a suspension and Arsenal still
12:39
have four players who if they do get
12:41
booked tomorrow night then they would miss a
12:44
semi-final if again if not when if Arsenal
12:46
get there and Declan Rice is one of
12:48
those might in Odogard not mine I don't
12:50
know sorry Gabriel Martinelli is one of those
12:52
Thomas Party is one of those and Jurian
12:54
timber is one of those so important players
12:56
for Arsenal of course you don't want to
12:58
be going into a semi final first leg
13:00
against you know whoever it's going to be
13:02
PSG or or Aston Villa missing a declam
13:05
rice or missing a jury and timber you
13:07
know players like that so it's something we're
13:09
going to have to keep an eye on
13:11
the players are going to have to be
13:13
smart you know I know you can get
13:15
caught up in in the game in the
13:17
spectacle at all that sort of stuff but
13:19
the players do need to think about that
13:21
of course because it's absolutely crucial if you
13:23
get through this game as I said it
13:25
off over the course of the two legs
13:28
of the semi-final. So this is a really
13:30
important game for Arsenal to keep their heads
13:32
discipline wise to make sure that everyone is
13:34
available for that semi-final if they do go
13:36
on and get there. Just
13:39
moving away from the Roundwood Red Game, David
13:41
Ornstein reporting last night that Aston Villa are
13:43
closing or working to close a deal for
13:46
a sphere Nipan from Rosenberg. Obviously this is
13:48
a player that we now asked will have
13:50
been really pushing to try and sign. It
13:52
looked in January like they were in a
13:55
good position to do it but it didn't
13:57
happen. He stayed at Rosenberg and decided to
13:59
keep his options to wait until the summer.
14:02
certainly from this report from David Ornstein it
14:04
looks like Villa are in very good position
14:06
to potentially get that deal done we know
14:08
that they were like Arsenal in January really
14:11
pushing to get that get a deal over
14:13
the line for him Manchester well the city
14:15
football group Gerona as well have been really
14:17
sort of pushing to get him on board
14:20
in their in their group but it looks
14:22
like Aston Villa have won the race Monsieur's
14:24
won the race they're the sporting and I
14:27
think that will be a It'll be a
14:29
disappointment. It's not going to be an absolute
14:31
hammer blow to Arsenal, but I'm sure they'll
14:33
move on. They'll be other targets. But this
14:36
is a player that they were excited about.
14:38
They had put a lot of work in
14:40
to try to manoeuvre themselves into the front
14:42
of the queue to sign him. But he
14:45
obviously thinks has looked at what Villa have
14:47
got to offer, looked to the pathway there
14:49
and believed that that's probably a better option
14:52
for him now to make himself into the
14:54
first team. Mike and Supermendi is going to
14:56
be a really key sort of summer transfer
14:58
target for Arsenal who they hope they're going
15:01
to be able to get the job done
15:03
for and get him on board, which is
15:05
great because especially if Thomas Parton, George Junior,
15:07
go which we're expecting will happen, then you
15:10
need that sort of number six type replacement
15:12
and obviously Supermendi is that but I think
15:14
you do need another attacking midfield option brought
15:17
into the team. Now if Arsenal aren't signing
15:19
Nipan, then maybe they go on to sign
15:21
a more experienced sign a more experienced sort
15:23
of player who can fit into that Is
15:26
that more what Arsenal need right now? Potentially
15:28
so than a young kid who's going to
15:30
have to settle in. So I don't look
15:32
at it as an absolute hammer blow, but
15:35
what I do look at it as if
15:37
he's not going to be the new sort
15:39
of attacking midfield option that Arsenal are going
15:42
to bring in, I certainly hope they do
15:44
pivot to someone else who can come in
15:46
and just add a little bit more creativity
15:48
or creative mindedness to the attack, certainly in
15:51
that sort of left-sided central position when it
15:53
comes to the attack. on Sphere Nipan, also
15:55
Kingsley Koman that continues to do the rounds.
15:57
This isn't one that I have to say
16:00
that gets me off my feet. It never
16:02
has done when it comes to Kingsley Koman.
16:04
We see what Leroy Saines... So I'm an
16:07
Arsenal seems to be a link to pretty
16:09
much every single aging bimunic player at the
16:11
moment. And Koman is, you know, this isn't
16:13
a new link, it's happened again. Florin, I've
16:16
never got over a sky in Germany is
16:18
reported that Arsenal are in constant contact with
16:20
Koman. And you know, I've never, I've never
16:22
had that confirmed myself, I have to say.
16:25
And I just think it's just not really
16:27
a link that he's a good player, don't
16:29
get me wrong. He's a very, he's a
16:32
very very very very very very very very
16:34
very good player. you know when you just
16:36
hear a link and you're just like no
16:38
that's not really for me and that's kind
16:41
of how I feel when it comes to
16:43
Kingsley Coman. It's similar with Leroy Sane as
16:45
well you know really good players have done
16:47
brilliant things in their career they're not. Overly
16:50
old either, you know, I think Coman's 28,
16:52
he turns 29 in the summer, Sane, maybe
16:54
a fraction older than him. So they still
16:57
do have football to play in them, but
16:59
they're still aging, legs have been around for
17:01
quite a long time, they've been massive, massive
17:03
wages, I think, you know, Sanei's free, which
17:06
is at least something, but Coman would be
17:08
about 30 or million, I think, and not
17:10
for me, doesn't really appeal. for me on
17:12
this one, you know, you look at Niko
17:15
Williams, someone like that fast, I'm going to
17:17
go outside himself and wing and then that's
17:19
absolutely the sort of winger that I think
17:22
you should be getting or some menio or
17:24
someone like that. And then you don't, you
17:26
know, you've already got, Ethemon area as well,
17:28
to cover for the right-hand side. So we'll
17:31
see, personally, my view, I think Komena went
17:33
up in Saudi Arabia, you know, you know,
17:35
they've been chasing him and... I feel like
17:37
that's probably the most likely option when it
17:40
comes to Kingsley Koman in the summer for
17:42
my purely unsourced view on it I have
17:44
to say. But yeah, there's the latest reason.
17:47
