About this episode

The episode discusses Arsenal's dominant performance against Chelsea, the struggles of Tottenham and Manchester United, and various player performances across the Premier League.

Arsenal put on a dominate display to beat potential title rivals Chelsea. Despite going one down after only a minute the Gunners looked calm, confident and positive throughout. Was it the benefits of having a title under their belts or a new approach from Mikel Arteta? Chelsea have arguably the best attack in the league, but have they left themselves short in defence and midfield? Alexander Isak is starting to prove his worth at Liverpool, but was their win just as much about Ipswich's poor performance? A great game at Fulham as Palace won 3-2. but are Fulham "just too much fun to watch?" Could it see therm in a relegation fight? Plus, is Josh King in line for an international call up and what do Tottenham and Manchester United make of their draws...progress or cause for concern? Tom Allnutt, Gregor Robertson and Alyson Rudd join Tom Clarke Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
