We are so back. Arsenal cruised to victory over Coventry City on Friday night – and then (almost) everyone proceeded to slip up.
Laura and Luke are joined by Shay Gunner for a gleeful review of Bukayo Saka's sharpness, Myles Lewis-Skelly looking even more at home in midfield after some fine fermentation last season, and Christos Tzolis' unexpected homecoming in Brugge. Plus, Shay has some #breakingnews regarding Julián Alvarez.
