Summary
Jimbo is joined by Duncan Alexander, Tom Williams and Dan Bardell to oversee a Premier League weekend chock full of narrative.
The complexion of Everton v Aston Villa is changed completely by Big Dunc taking the helm, up against Stevie G on Merseyside again. David Moyes returns to Old Trafford again as West Ham face a Rangnick side still waiting to play 90 good minutes within the same match.
In midweek, Tottenham complete a historic comeback at Leicester with Antonio Conte transforming the mentality of his squad. But what’s happened to Chelsea and why are they all so miserable?
The panel discusses the prospect of watching Christian Eriksen play football again if he does indeed join his fellow Danes at Brentford.
Maher Mezahi gives us the latest from AFCON as Ghana go out and Gabon progress despite the most shambolic preparations possible.
Plus Fulham attempting a Peterborough. And Nutella – the ketchup of professional cycling.
