Summary
Jimbo welcomes Daniel Storey, Jay Harris and James Maw after a potentially pivotal Premier League weekend.
A late deflected goal sees Arsenal finally best Man City after 12 consecutive defeats against them. James McNicholas tells us why this is emblematic of a new Arsenal in the title race.
Tottenham are top heading into the international break after victory at Luton. Hear why this is more than just good vibes.
We discuss the battle - or lack of - at the bottom of the Premier League table. Which is where Brentford are close to finding themselves after an incredible late turnaround at Old Trafford. But Man United’s problems are far from solved.
Plus Kudus, Adingra and the Premier League’s most efficient striker.
Produced by Charlie Jones.
