In today's Arsenal Vision Post Match Podcast Elliot (@YankeeGunner), Paul (@PoznanInMyPants), and Clive (@ClivePAFC) talk about the 2-1 defeat against Bournemouth in the Premier League. Discussion includes Arsenal’s schoolboy defending, was Xhaka a bad buy? Wenger’s meaning of ‘ideal contract situation’, not starting Alexis. They take a look at the current transfer rumours, Theo Walcott impending departure to Everton. All this and plenty more in this week's Arsenal Vision Post Match Podcast.

The question was always a case of when rather than if, the other question was also about quality, and it turns out that we've plumped for off the radar forward Lucas Perez. How many times have we seen that before? Linked to all sorts of people that folk talk about day and night, only for Arsenal to buy the player nobody was talking about all summer.
I have decided that the most disappointing player for me all season was our captain Cesc Fabregas. I love him so much but his lack of contribution this year has been a significant factor in our downfall. While his football has clearly been mixed it is his attitude which has disappointed me most - his limp and selfish performance at the Nou Camp and his absence the last day of the season are not things I would

If there is an interest then I wouldn't be surprised if he made a name for himself when he came off the bench at the Emirates
