This week on the Fozcast, we’re joined by former Arsenal, Liverpool and England star – Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain!
It’s a belter, trust us 👏🏼
Alex talks about his breakthrough at Arsenal and how the return of Thierry Henry inspired some players – and broke others…
He opens up about the huge influence his dad had on his career and how that early grounding helped shape the player and person is today.
After leaving Arsenal, Alex made the move to Liverpool, where he went on to win the Premier League and Champions League. He shares the challenges that came with injuries and limited game time, as well as incredible insight into playing alongside Mohamed Salah, Sadio Mané and Roberto Firmino – are they the best front three in Premier League history? 👀
We also chat about his experiences with England, the 2014 World Cup, life playing abroad in Turkey, and brilliant stories about working under Arsène Wenger and Jürgen Klopp.
Honestly, this episode has everything – top insight, great stories and plenty of laughs.
Big thanks to Alex for coming on the pod! 🙌🏼

I’m out of work. I will answer any time of day.
I say as a Liverpool fan, the reason Liverpool were so good during that 18-20 run is because Mane was our best defender 💪 he's the reason Trent and Robbo were having assist competition's. Mane and Firmino make every action a positive action for 90 minutes, then Klopp just had to move the pieces into place for magic
Really enjoyed this
58:40 facts🎯 never put it into that perspective
Can't believe Tiago Alcantara was not mentioned amongst the best and most fun midfielders chat. Have you seen the fella play
lads just put Ox's camera on manual focus, no need for autofocus when he's sitting down. very distracting imo. great chat though, ox is a top man
makes me wonder the current liverpool squad lacks a player like Hendo and Millie. VVD is a great leader but he still gives the more chill vibe. I look at the midfield and I don't see any.
Time stamp would have been very helpful
I thought he had retired due to injury or something,
Never realized he was still active and looking for a club.
Surprised wrexham not shown any interest in him? 🤔
He walks in to a a few teams in the prem 😊
Alex needs to visit Africa, we could give him some traditional medicine that would get rid of injuries and also connect him to his ancestors. Its an ancestral problem, its spiritual not physical .
He's a top man who ya just want to see back on the pitch smiling.
One of my favorite player that didn't climb to the apex of his career. Top guy❤❤
Never understood why he left us for Liverpool until this interview. He was always an integral part of Arsenal but I can see now why he made the move. Wenger was waning and Ox had it in him to improve and could see the club was weakening culturally. We never were able to replace him then. Covered so many positions. Great to see him here. Hopefully, he comes back playing for someone in the PL.
Championship ? Just play for the love of the game
Speaks so well would be a great pundit. Some cant string a sentence together. Very articulate lad Ox
Great pod. Really good talking points!
Will be great to see the ox back in the prem. Miss you at Liverpool! Great lad, great player.
Wish you got a lot more appearances for liverpool while you were there & really wish you never left!
Hendo was class…. and millie too…. miss both of those at Liverpool. They will make great managers.
Looking forward to Ox in the old firm games. Welcome to paradise brother Ox.
Welcome to Celtic Alex!!
