This is The Guardian.

Hello and welcome to The Guardian Football Weekly.

A fun weekend of comeback to VAR and Adama Troiore winning the Royal Rumble.

We'll start at Spurs.

What happened to Manchester City in the second half? Did Dr. Totten administer the wrong dose? An extraordinary finish from Dominic Solanke, as Thomas Frank's job is saved once again. It was Arsenal's weekend at the top as Aston Villa dropped more points at home, a great chance to talk about VAR and phases of play. The gunners themselves absolutely hammered leads. This was meant to be a tricky assignment for the bottlers, but they were brilliant. Two other crackers to discuss some pure DNA at Old Trafford doing it in injury time. Meanwhile, another win for Liam Rossini as Chelsea come back from two goals down. Elsewhere, Liverpool turned it on against Newcastle, a handball even I thought should be given at the city ground. Bournemouth win at Wolves and David Moyes gets told off for celebrating. All that plus your questions and that's today's Guardian Football Weekly.

On the panel today, Barney Roney, welcome.

feel like a real football match.

Yeah, I mean, it was what was happening, but it just didn't feel like a real football match.

Yeah, I mean, it was like soccer aid, but with really minor celebrities, you're not really sure why they're there.

Where's Tom Hiddleston?

It felt like Spurs were doing something that they just didn't want to do.

It was hostage ball.

It was an act of, it was painful for them. They didn't want to be playing this game, but they had to. But the turnaround was extraordinary. I mean, this whole, the whole weekend was extraordinary. It was a really extraordinary weekend. Let's face it, and this was the apogee of it. It was like, you know, when people talk about the

Premier League, normally it's like there's that guy, Dave, and he's saying, it's the greatest

league in the world. It's just, what an amazing weekend. Let's, and you're sort of feeling there's
