About this episode

The episode discusses Arsenal's draw with Atletico Madrid, focusing on refereeing controversies and insights from the panel.

Mark Chapman is joined by Chris Sutton, John Murray and Rory Smith to react to Arsenal’s 1-1 draw with Atletico Madrid – a game raising even more question marks about the consistency of refereeing. The panel also discuss whether getting away from Madrid with a draw a good result for Arsenal? Will they be nervous heading into the second leg? We also hear from a very frustrated Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta who says he is ‘incredibly fuming’ that they weren’t awarded a penalty for a foul on Eberechi Eze. Garry Birtles also joins the pod to look ahead to Nottingham Forest v Aston Villa in the Europa League semi-finals.
