  1. Title Race Blown Wide Open & A Dark Day In Lisbon

    Title Race Blown Wide Open & A Dark Day In Lisbon 

    Arsenal made unwanted history this weekend, becoming the first side in Premier League history to surrender a two-goal lead against a team starting the day in the relegation zone. Wolves fought back from 2–0 down to claim a crucial point, a result that has thrown the title race wide open. With Manchester City now just five points behind, with a game in hand, the question has to be asked: do Arsenal have the experience and resilience required to go all the way? Elsewhere in Europe, there were deeply troubling scenes during Benfica’s match involving Vinícius Júnior and Gianluca Prestianni. After scoring a superb goal, Vinícius Júnior was subjected to alleged racial abuse. The incident has once again raised urgent questions about racism in football and why meaningful progress remains so slow. Gary, Alan and Micah reflect on why this continues to happen in the modern game and also discuss the reaction after the match, including disappointing comments from José Mourinho that have sparked further debate.

    Mansfield Miracle, Shocking Officiating & Gary and Alan vs Harry Kane

    It was a good day for Newcastle as they beat Villa in the 4th Round of the FA Cup, but the headlines were stolen by a staggering display from the officials at Villa Park. With no VAR in operation, the big question is unavoidable: have referees become too reliant on technology? Is VAR the worst thing ever introduced to the game? There was magic in the cup as Mansfield Town stunned Burnley to reach the Fifth Round of the FA Cup for the first time since 1975. The guys question Scott Parker’s decision to make nine changes for the Clarets. Plus, Gary Lineker, Alan Shearer and Micah Richards debate whether Dominik Szoboszlai truly deserves the “world class” tag. And the big question… Gary, Alan or Harry Kane?

    Dennis Bergkamp: The Moments That Made Them

    When Dennis Bergkamp arrived at Arsenal in 1995, he didn’t just improve the team, he transformed it. Calm, cerebral and impossibly gifted, Bergkamp became the creative heartbeat of a club on the brink of greatness. From his incredible composure in front of goal to his gravity-defying touch and visionary passing, he redefined what artistry looked like in English football. Gary, Alan & Micah discuss his unforgettable goal against Newcastle, his brilliant hat-trick vs Leicester, and his pivotal role under Arsène Wenger in building the Double-winning sides and the legendary Invincibles of 2003–04.

    Trent is BACK as Real Madrid hunt down Barca

    Trent Alexander-Arnold starred for Real Madrid as he made his return from injury in the 4-1 win over Real Sociedad at the Bernabeu, a win that saw them go top of La Liga at least temporarily. Gary and Alex look at whether he is finally finding his feet in Madrid, the praise he's getting from Alvaro Arbeloa and what that could mean for his chances of making the world cup squad. Atletico Madrid continue to put their fans through it as they followed up a stunning 4-0 win over Barcelona in the Copa Del Rey by meekly surrendering to Rayo Vallecano on Sunday in a 3-0 defeat. Diego Simeone and Jan Oblak were at loggerheads after the game, so we check in on Atleti and look at why their season is so continually up and down.

Gary, Alan and Micah also get stuck into Thomas Tuchel’s growing selection dilemmas. Is Morgan Rogers now ahead of the injured Jude Bellingham? Who gets the nod between Bukayo Saka and hat-trick hero Cole Palmer? And is Phil Foden in real danger of missing out after being left as an unused substitute by Pep Guardiola against Liverpool?

    Man City Without Haaland & The “Boring Arsenal” Debate

    With Manchester thumping Newcastle at the Etihad and Omar Marmoush getting on the scoresheet again, does Pep have a selection headache on his hands? Especially with Haaland still searching for his first-ever goal at Liverpool. Elsewhere, after a drab semi-final at the Emirates, are Arsenal in danger of becoming boring to watch this season? And more importantly, would their fans even care if it ends with multiple trophies? Gary and Micah also dive into Liam Rosenior’s tactical approach, questioning whether he got it wrong by switching to a back five for the first time in his Chelsea tenure.

    TRENT AND JULIAN ALVAREZ BACK TO THE PREMIER LEAGUE?

    It’s neck and neck at the top of La Liga as Real Madrid kept up the pressure on leaders Barcelona with a 2-0 win away at third placed Villarreal while Barca put last week’s slip up behind them with a 3-0 win over Real Oviedo at the Camp Nou. Gary and Alex look at another two goals for the rampant Kylian Mbappe, including a panenka penalty he awkwardly dedicated to teammate Brahim Diaz, and there’s an absolute stunner from Lamine Yamal to enjoy too. It’s transfer season and rumours have begun to swirl over Trent Alexander-Arnold’s future at Real Madrid, with some reports suggesting he could be on the way out in the summer. Gary and Alex look at the England international’s difficult first six months in Madrid and assess his chances of turning his fortunes around as we approach the world cup. There’s more transfer talk on the other half of Madrid with Atletico’s Julian Alvarez linked with a return to the Premier League in what would be a sensational January move to Arsenal. Diego Simeone has publicly backed the underperforming former Man City man but could the move be the thing that would finally get the Gunners over the line in their quest to win the Premier League title?
