Summary
Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE.
This week, Gary Neville, Paul Scholes, Roy Keane, Jill Scott and Ian Wright dive into a title race that’s getting tighter by the week. With Arsenal and Manchester City going head to head at the top, how is Wrighty feeling heading into the run-in, and who does the team back to lift the league in May?
We look back at a huge North London Derby, as Arsenal got the better of Spurs, while Viktor Gyökeres continues his strong form. Benjamin Šeško was at it again too, coming off the bench for Manchester United as the super sub. The team break down both strikers’ impact and how crucial they could be in the final stretch of the season.
Super 6 returns ahead of another busy week of fixtures, and Gary tests the panel on the top five Premier League goalscorers from different nations with the Premier League Companion powered by Microsoft Copilot.
We’re also joined by Portugal head coach Roberto Martínez, who reflects on his squad ahead of the World Cup and discusses Cristiano Ronaldo’s role as the tournament approaches.

| 0:00.0 | Just before we get started, a quick thanks to our partners and clothing. |
| 0:04.1 | We hope you enjoy the show. |
| 0:06.1 | Right, let's go for it. |
| 0:08.3 | You ready, Gary? |
| 0:09.8 | We're ready. We've both got... What have you got on? |
| 0:11.9 | I've got my Leipzig top on. |
| 0:13.6 | It's sent to us by the Bundesliga. |
| 0:15.8 | Friday nights live on the overlap. |
| 0:17.5 | All done. Good promotion. Well done, Karen. |
| 0:19.9 | I'm doing my best, guy. |
| 0:20.8 | So I... I just had to... on the overlap. Well done. Good promotion. Well done, Karen. Doing my best guy. |
| 0:36.8 | So I... I just had to it. I like the Stone Roses. I don't like United. Well, one out of the two. Yeah, one out of the two. I take that. I like Sulford, though. Thank you. Didn't bring any luck last night. I didn't bring any look last night. They keep letting me in, you know. |
| 0:40.3 | I think I've lost three and three, my last three. |
| 1:11.1 | Well, stay away then. Don't come back. Terrible, eh? It's a bad night. If the header goes in at one-one, but he hits the bar, might have been alright. The shot straight after that, the keeper's saved it. It's hit the lad on the line and come back to him. Because you can't win, car. Bizarre that. Oh well, we're on. Need to win at the weekend, Colchester. I was going to go to Colchester, but I'm not now, because I'm doing Arsenal Chelsea on Sunday, so I was going to go down early on Saturday back heart now. You go in the away ends when you go? |
| 1:12.6 | Yeah, I got two way ends. |
| 1:14.2 | I didn't do last week at Cheltenham, because there was a few of us going back at Bromley. |
| 1:18.1 | Just before Christmas, well, a month or so before Christmas, I went in the way end, yeah. |
| 1:21.8 | Hud up. |
| 1:23.2 | What's the game? |
| 1:24.3 | We lost as well, too, no. |
| 1:25.4 | I went to Barnett away, yourself. Is there? |
| 1:45.2 | I like going to the way and. It's good. Good atmosphere. Yeah, it's good. Just nice to watch a game on a terrace and just watch it properly. And that's what I like about lead two. You can do that. I love lead two. I mean, it's a bit scruffy at times. But Arsenal, Chelsea this weekend, big game. I think that's no idea now. |
