The Arsenal Beat

As Arsenal prepare to face Brentford on Sunday and before the final international break ahead of the World Cup, there is much to be discussed.

Recorded for the first time at Arsenal's London Colney training base immediately after Mikel Arteta's pre-match press conference, Mark is joined by The Telegraph's Sam Dean, Art de Roche of the Athletic and senior football writer at ESPN James Olley.

The quartet tackle the furore around Ben White's omission from the England squad, the ins and outs of whether he is fit and how to report on a situation that is unclear.

They move on to talk about the challenge of playing Brentford, how Arsenal's team has evolved from last season, facing Ivan Toney, managing Bukayo Saka's minutes and much more beside.
