Summary

Jimbo welcomes Daniel Storey, Duncan Alexander and Mark Carey onto the pod after another seismic weekend of Premier League action.

It's 3 defeats in a row for champions Liverpool after another stoppage time winner for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge. Which allows Arsenal to take top spot. What's going on with Arne Slot's side?

Crystal Palace suffer their first defeat of the season as Everton come from behind to secure a late victory through Jack Grealish. Cue limbs at Hill Dickinson.

What now for Ange Postecoglou? 7 games without a win at Forest as they lose 2-0 Newcastle.

Plus more Bournemouth brilliance and Man United make it 3 home wins on the bounce.
