Summary

Rob Jones is joined by The Mirror's Darren Lewis and the Daily Telegraph’s Sam Dean to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.

We start by talking about Arsenal, and Sam believes the fans have lost hope in their title bid, and that Merino as a false nine was unsustainable. Darren argues that the defining moment in Arsenal’s season was a failure to sign a striker in the January window.

Next to Manchester United, after their 2-2 draw at Goodison; Sam suggests Everton should have had a penalty in the final moments, as the referee wasn’t shown the most incriminating angles and the incident wasn’t ‘clear and obvious’ to be overruled.  

Meanwhile, United’s rivals Liverpool look for their twentieth league title and Jamie Redknapp sits down with Arne Slot to talk about the challenge of competing in both the Premier League and Champions League, and the surprise of City's fall.

And finally, Sam criticises Chelsea’s model, and after a third loss in four Premier league games yesterday at Villa Park, Darren questions the level of Chelsea’s two available goalkeepers.

Given that result then at the Emirates, Liverpool could have a hand on the trophy,

0:53.0

couldn't they if they win today?

0:56.5
