Carl Jenkinson Exclusive Interview | Arsecast

In this episode I'm joined by former Arsenal player Carl Jenkinson for a chat about his life and career.
He's just back from Australia, so we begin with his thoughts on playing the A-League, before turning our attention to his time with the Gunners. From the early days after his move from Charlton, the difficult early period which included that painful game at Old Trafford, working with and learning from Arsene Wenger, Steve Bould and Bacary Sagna, how injuries impacted his career, and lots more - including that famous press conference clip involving a question about his dad being a singer!

Great interview. Surprised nothing was mentioned on his time at West Ham. He was playing great but got injured I belive in his second season there.

I have had a 25 Jenko shirt hanging in my office for a few years now, there is so much love for him in this fanbase. Love him

As an Englishman that’s lived in Australia for the last 25 years and 7 of those in Newcastle this was really a great listen. Season ticket holder at the jets ($200 a year!!!) it’s truly a great city, very real people and has he said great beaches. We loved having you in newy mate!! Steel city will miss you

[@drop271]

Best of luck Jenko! Great interview - love the openess about the ups and downs!

[@TheMajicDancer]

He played well for my local Newcastle Jets these last couple of years. We also had ex-Gooner Francis Jeffers a few years back, I wonder who our next Gunner will be down here in Newy Australia.

Great interview 👌

[@James-In-Exile]

Great interview, and some fascinating insights into the dog days of the Wenger years, and Emery's misunderstood impact before the current Arteta era. 👍

Nice interview

[@orvillegardener8455]

Great interview and listen. Pleased to hear that he is planning for the future. Intelligent guy.

[@connorjgodfrey]

Always seemed a top boy. Shame injuries made it tricky for him in what should have been his prime years. Could've been a solid RB for a team down the bottom half of the league or pushed for that backup spot at Arsenal properly.
