On today’s pod: Manchester City take control of the title race with a huge win over Arsenal. The panel ask just how decisive this result is, did City win it, or did Arsenal lose it in the margins? What do we make of those near-misses from Eberechi Eze and Kai Havertz? There’s also the small matter of the key battle: Erling Haaland v Gabriel as the panel asks if the head-rutting is the ultimate man-off.
At the other end of the table, it’s heartbreak for Spurs as they concede late against Brighton. The panel relive that gut-punch moment, ask whether Xavi Simons has the saddest face in football, and wonder if relegation is now more likely than not. Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest surge clear thanks to Morgan Gibbs-White’s hat-trick, Leeds all but secure safetyand it’s now all eyes on West Ham. Will they survive?
Plus, in the race for Champions League football, there’s a seven-goal thriller at Villa Park, a failed dink from Habib Diarra for Sunderland, before Tammy Abraham breaks their hearts seconds later. Liverpool win a chaotic Merseyside derby in the 100th minute; Manchester United edge out Chelseaand questions are asked about Eddie Howe’s future.
Also, the panel answer your questions, there’s a ‘gold’ testicular-related email, and a fine save from a Max Rushden left-footed scissor-kick.
