The Totally Football Show with James Richardson
Sports:Soccer
Jimbo welcomes Daniel Storey, Adrian Clarke and Tim Spiers after some title race shenanigans in the Premier League.
It’s advantage Manchester City who go top on Saturday and then watch Liverpool and then Arsenal lose on Sunday.
For the Reds, it’s a second home defeat in 4 days as Glasner’s Palace get the job done. With all the chasing they’ve had to do in games, has this poor run been coming?
Arsenal are undone by former manager Unai Emery whose Villa side make huge strides towards next season’s Champions League. Is there any hope of catching the champions? And can the Gunners pick themselves up for Bayern on Wednesday?
Elsewhere, wilting Tottenham come up against the best finisher in the Premier League. And it’s another matchday in which Man United concede at least 20 shots.
Plus Stockport, Wrexham and one of the worst mistakes in Premier League history.
Produced by Charlie Jones.
