| 0:39.6 | Hello and welcome to the football reporters. Coming up this week we'll be taking a look back at the best of the Premier League action |
| 0:42.6 | with the United beating Chelsea 2-1 and Arsenal and Mancities sharing a 1-0 draw at the Emirates. |
| 0:47.6 | Neddemeanua is joined by Mark Ogden and they're going to discuss players being pushed out of their own clubs |
| 0:52.0 | and we'll also be taking a look at how Premier League managers tackle the media. |
| 0:59.6 | We'll start at the Emirates where Arsenal drew one-all with Man City, Mark. You were there. |
| 1:04.5 | A lot of questions about McCartetta's approach before kick off about the team he picked. |
| 1:10.2 | What did you think? do you think he was too |
| 1:11.6 | negative or do you think it's been a bit of an overreaction? I think it's been a bit of an reaction, to be honest. I think we can all be clever with hindsight, can't we? But, you know, Becayasaka, for instance, didn't start because he hasn't been playing recently. He wasn't fit to start and I think, you know, why would he start him in the biggest game of the season, I guess, |
| 1:27.8 | today, because having lost at Anfield, this was the biggest game of the season, I guess, to date? |
| 1:28.2 | Because having lost to Amfield, this was the biggest Alston-Faiceman. |
| 1:30.7 | So he had to be pragmatic about it, and he's still not got any Marcy in Odegaard, because Odegard doesn't fit. So I think he had to pit the team that he had in front of him. And obviously, Madweck has had a great start to the season. you can't not that selection. |
| 1:42.6 | Trust how does the unusual one |
| 1:43.8 | was the surprise one, |
| 1:44.9 | but for me, |
| 1:45.9 | I also still had the players the season. You can't not that selection. Troussard was the unusual one was the surprise one. |
| 1:45.0 | But for me, I also still had the players to win the game. I just think that, you know, Pep had a game plan. Pep Guadillo had a game plan and it worked. And obviously, Citi's scoring first made it much easier for that game plan to work. If you've got the pace of Harland and Dock who on the countertide, you know, exploits it. So yeah, I think there's been a bit of an old reaction. I think it was the same case when |
| 2:04.1 | asked if you've got the pace of Harland and Docko on the countertart, you know, exploits it. So, yeah, I think there's been a bit of an overreaction. |
| 2:02.8 | I think it was the same case when Arsenal went to Liverpool and lost to a, you know, a wonder go from Dominic Sheboslid. In that game, they pretty much deserve to get a draw, but it's just a fine margin. but the flip side is, you know, |
| 2:16.5 | they've played the two biggest rivals for the title now |
| 2:18.4 | and haven't beaten ours of them, |
