Arteta’s Arsenal hold on - a podcast by BBC Radio 5 live

Steve Crossman is joined by Izzy Christiansen, Dion Dublin and Ian Dennis after what was an excellent defensive display from Arsenal, which saw them draw 0-0 with Liverpool in their EFL Cup semi-final first leg at Anfield, despite playing for over an hour with 10 men.

Granit Xhaka was sent off after 24 minutes, which means he will miss both the second leg and the North London derby, leaving Arsenal with an extremely inexperienced midfield. So does Mikel Arteta need to make moves before the transfer window shuts?

Miguel Delaney - chief football writer from The Independent – joins the pod to discuss the latest transfer reports circulating around the Emirates, including a move for Fiorentina striker Dusan Vlahovic.

Plus hear from Chris Wood after he completes him move from Burnley to Newcastle.
