Summary
In the last MNC before Xmas, Kelly Cates is joined by Izzy Christiansen, Shay Given and Rory Smith for some festive fun and frolics – they start by reflecting on the much hyped match between Liverpool and Manchester United which ended goalless…
Attention turns to Manchester City after they dropped points against Crystal Palace and the guys ask the question – are City stalling this season?
West Ham are up to eighth in the table after beating Wolves – and are looking solid in attack so Kelly gets a fans perspective on where things are going right for David Moyes and his side – and keeping with the theme of winning sides, Everton who now have four wins on the bounce under Sean Dyche are brought into the spotlight.
And if that’s not enough… Rory samples the Christmas markets in Leeds and Shay tells us all about his big Match of the Day debut!
