Enda Coll is joined by football writer John Brewin to look back on a tense Champions League final as Arsenal’s defensive plan so nearly worked, before it unravelled at the crucial moment...

They dig into the wider debate around Arteta’s style, why this Arsenal side doesn’t always get credit for its defending, and what evolution might look like next season — from creativity in midfield to the hunt for a genuinely elite forward.

There’s also a major Premier League subplot: Liverpool’s shock decision to sack Arne Slot, the links to Andoni Iraola, and what a rebuild could mean in a post-Salah era.
