Summary
Jimbo ushers Michael Cox, Dom Fifield and Duncan Alexander into the Totally pod ahead of a blockbuster Premier League weekend.
Arsenal travel to Chelsea with a chance to assert dominance over their London rivals, while a depleted Spurs host an unpredictable Liverpool.
Elsewhere, we pay homage to Marco Silva, look ahead to Unai Emery’s first match at Villa and ask if Jesse Marsch would have been better off if Leeds went down.
The Champions League group stage wraps up in dramatic style, with Benfica pipping PSG to top spot, courtesy of the return of the away goals rule
Plus Nick Miller is off on the road to Qatar, a salute to Ronnie Radford and looking ahead to the quiet weekend.
Produced by Charlie Jones.
