| 0:00.0 | This is The Guardian. |
| 0:13.3 | Hello and welcome to The Guardian Football Weekly. What a brilliant weekend for Arsenal, |
| 0:16.5 | quietly going about winning the league while everyone else we think should be in the title race |
| 0:20.1 | slips up. |
| 0:39.3 | Liverpool's fourth Premier League defeat in a row comprehensively outplayed by Brentford. Michael Coyote's long throw, surely the best since Dilap. Mancitya beat at Villa after spending quite a while on his right foot last week. We can now talk about Matty Cash's left. Sunderlander fourth, fourth Barry, winning late at Chelsea, Bournemouth, the second. There's a third winner-road for Manchester United, while at the bottom the misery continues for West Hamat Leeds and Wolves beaten late on by Burnley, who score an absolute beauty on the way to victory. |
| 0:46.3 | Spurs brilliant away form continues at Everton, while Newcastle consigned Fulham to another defeat. |
| 0:50.3 | It's a big weekend for old strikers, we'll answer your questions. And that's today's Guardian Football Weekly. |
| 1:01.5 | On the panel today, Barry Glenn Denning, good morning. Hello, Max. Welcome Dan Barrett |
| 1:05.0 | Dan Bardell. Morning Max. And hello, Sam Daly. Hello, Max Rushden. Right. Let's start. |
| 1:09.8 | The G-tech. It's hard to know where to start. And, you know, lots of teams could say, we should be first. But we'll start with Brentford's win over Liverpool. Sam, you were there on Saturday night. I thought Brentford were absolutely brilliant in this match. I'm glad you've started with the Brentford angle as well, because the easy thing to do would be to slate Liverpool. |
| 1:27.7 | But yeah, they were fantastic, right? They were fully deserving of their win. Had Liverpool |
| 1:32.9 | Nick something in the 17th minute of added time or whatever it was at the end of the |
| 1:37.9 | second half, it would have been completely unjust. I mean, the kudos goes, right, the long throws. I know we've talked about |
| 1:46.2 | them a lot, Michael Coyote, who, believe it or not, he didn't realize he had that aptitude until he |
| 1:52.7 | was about 16. It was when he was playing in Syria D with Gazano. He was on Juventus' books. |
| 1:57.4 | They let him go, and it wasn't to lose 16, he realized he had this weapon. But he is also, and I think what we shouldn't lose sight of, is an absolutely brilliant right back. He was player of the match. He won all five of his jewels, a couple of takes on, nicked possession off Liverpool seven times, three clearances, two fouls. And then I was at the West Ham game as well on Monday, which a very different game. Brentford won that. And I think he created six chances from open play. |
| 2:20.3 | And it's just yet another example of Brentford's absolutely brilliant recruitment. |
| 2:26.3 | You know, a lot of us left when they signed Jordan Henderson in the centre of midfield. |
| 2:31.3 | He hasn't looked out of place at all. I think Mikhail Damsgaard is their number 10. That pass for the Sharder second goal. I know it was simple in terms of Liverpool. Liverpool probably should be defending better than that. But wow, what a pass. And then it's the striker, the chain of succession. I mean, it's like some kind of royal lineage, |
| 2:51.6 | isn't it? If you go back to Mope, Watkins, Toner, Visser Tiago now, who is an absolute bully. |
| 2:58.4 | He gave Van Dyke a little bit of a more than a little bit of a hard time. And he could see |
| 3:04.2 | Arnie Slott, when that penalty was given immediately. |
