Who is the most underrated player in Arsenal's recent history?

Ian Stone is joined by Amy Lawrence, Adrian Clarke and James McNicholas for a special Handbrake Off, in which the panel attempt to pick the player who has done the most for the club with the least fanfare.

Ian, Amy, Adrian, James and The Athletic’s Art de Roché gave producer Jay names of the Arsenal players they believe should be in the conversation. The only names they were aware of pre-recording were those they submitted individually. The players were drawn out of a hat in knockout competition style, going up against each other head to head being put to a vote each time.

Listen to find out who the team crowned as their underrated champion, and let us know in the comments below who your choice would be.

Welcome to this special edition of Handbrake Off where the multi-generational crew have decided to reconvene to see if they can reach the kind of consensus Mikel Arteta and Andrea Berta need on the hot topic of a new striker for Arsenal.

Amy Lawrence is joined by our range of Arsenal fans from across the years. Arthur, The Athletic’s resident teen, Handbrake's Art de Roché, and Richard, our most mature (legendary) supporter.

So, the key dilemma that is keeping Arsenal fans from sleeping soundly is to Sesko or to Gyokeres, that is the question. The drip drip of whispers and hunches, breaking developments about concrete talk - god forbid any talk should be non-concrete - is already getting irritating.

The panel discuss the options, with the aim of agreeing on who they would choose if they were Arsenal’s new sporting director.
