| 0:00.0 | Head home for the holidays with Abercrombie and Fitch. |
| 0:02.8 | Between family dinners and making time to catch up with friends, my calendar gets booked up. |

| 0:34.2 | Welcome into latest edition of ESPNFC. |
| 0:36.2 | I'm Dan Thomas, joined by Craig Burley and Stevie Nicol. We'll kick things off in the Premier League and discuss the title race. Two, well, the two leaders were in action today. Manchester City taking on West Ham. City would be in comfortably by three goals to nil. Erling Harlan, adding two more goals to his tally. In the late game, Arsenal would take on Everton. |
| 0:55.0 | Arsler would win 1-0. It was a tale of two penalties. One was given. Jor Carets were converted. However, Everton felt they should have had a penalty in the second half. Were they wrong? Steve? Was it a penalty? No, 100% then. Greg? Yes. Yes indeed. But however it wasn't given, and also then hold on for a a 1-0 victory that keeps them two points clear at the top of the table. |
| 1:14.6 | Don Hutchinson joins us. Don overall, Arsul, of course, delighted, especially with City winning so easily, going to Everton, not an easy task for Arsul, yet they get the job done. |
| 1:30.8 | Exactly that, Dan. It wasn't a classic, it wasn't a brilliant performance it was professional i thought they got lucky i i agree with the boys i thought it was a |
| 1:34.7 | stonewall penalty um i thought arsenal got very lucky i've got no idea why the referee didn't spot |
| 1:40.0 | that in real time but when it goes to var surely, surely they're sitting there, they see the same |
| 1:44.4 | contact that we saw. It should have been a penalty and Arsenal got lucky, but this and they're |
| 1:48.9 | getting away with it. They weren't particularly good last week when they scored a couple of, well, |
| 1:52.9 | wolves scored a couple of own goals that gifted them the win. They're just about getting by after |
| 1:56.8 | the slight wobble against Crystal Palace. I think what's quite apparent after the last two games from an Arsenal point of view, they've got some seriously difficult fixtures coming up in their next four or five, and they're going to have to improve. I mean, two on goals last week. A volleyball punch from a centre half or a defender this week. Okay, Trussard missed one and there was a couple of others. |
| 2:18.9 | Still, to go to Everton, get a result. Yeah, I know. But they've got a result. But the big, |
| 2:24.4 | arguably, if the penalty had been given and scored, they wouldn't have got a result. That is one of |
| 2:28.9 | the big talking points. We have a very tight title race at the moment, between two teams at the |
| 2:33.8 | moment, might be more, probably not. |
| 2:36.2 | And we have these big decisions. |
| 2:37.8 | Now had this decision gone with the boot from Sileba against Arsenal, we know what Ateta's like. |
