About this episode
The episode discusses the recent struggles of Arsenal and Liverpool, along with other soccer news including Leeds' FA Cup semi final and West Ham's fighting spirit.
Where does defeat to Championship side Southampton leave Arsenal? The positivity of Max Dowman's goal against Everton on 14th March seems a long time ago - out of two cups and with poor performances to boot can they bounce back? Liverpool were thumped by a resurgent Man City, but the comments of captain Virgil Van Dijk are perhaps most concerning for Liverpool fans - he thought his team gave up. Why and where does that leave manager Arne Slot. Leeds are in their first FA Cup semi final in nearly 40 years, but did it come at a cost as key players were injured. West Ham lost but showed fighting spirit ahead of the relegation run in. Plus, Spurs players, Chelsea projects and Southampton away kits. Gregor Robertson is joined by Alyson Rudd and Tony Cascarino Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
