Mailbag: Should Arsenal be looking for Mikel Arteta’s replacement?

Despite notable improvements on and off the pitch, Mikel Arteta still hasn’t delivered the trophies Arsenal now expect - and it looks alarmingly like that trend could continue. So Marcus, Luke and David assess whether the Arsenal board should be looking for his replacement this summer if he doesn’t win a trophy.

Plus, we look back on some international defeats that proved vital to eventual success, celebrate this season’s promoted teams that are bucking the trend and shudder at the thought of Chelsea’s next manager. Plus, a Brazil-based listener brings us more vital information about Mogi Mirim!
