Preview Show: One boy for sale

The Community Shield is here! Whether Arsenal are ready is another question...

Luke, Jonny and Jim look back on our pre-season and who will likely start against Man City in a game that still feels one week too soon. We also discuss Marli Salmon – how much can he truly been used? – and Jim argues why a defender in this transfer window is actually more important than a left-winger. Has he been Arteta brainwashed?

We also have a much-needed conversation about player sales in light of the Myles Lewis-Skelly reports this week. Why was this even being considered? Was this even being considered? And when will Arsenal make some proper money on a player sale?!
