E227: Season Awards — Predictions, Best Takes & The Takes We Got Wrong (Season Review)

The 2025/26 season review series concludes with The NN Pod’s end-of-season awards show.

The lads hand out their Player of the Season, Breakthrough Player, Goal of the Season, Save of the Season, Moment of the Season and Signing of the Season awards, reflecting on the players, performances and moments that defined Arsenal’s Premier League-winning campaign.  

There is also discussion around the season’s biggest disappointments, the surprises from around the league and the individual contributions that shaped Arsenal’s title-winning year. From Declan Rice and David Raya to Max Dowman, Martin Zubimendi, Piero Hincapié and Eberechi Eze, a number of key figures come under the spotlight.  

The second half of the episode turns the focus back on the podcast itself. The hosts revisit their predictions from the start of the season, reveal their best and worst takes, nominate their dumbest moments behind the microphone and share their favourite memories from a campaign that ended with Arsenal lifting the Premier League trophy.  

There are correct calls, spectacular misses, plenty of self-inflicted embarrassment and a final look back at the moments that made the season memorable both on and off the pitch.  

A Premier League-winning season. A season of predictions. A season of accountability.
