How will Liverpool cope without Salah and what’s happened to Arsenal?

The Totally Football Show is back for 2024 with Jimbo joined by Daniel Storey, Jay Harris and JJ Bull after another significant Premier League weekend.

Liverpool are 3 points clear at the top of the table as they smash Newcastle and xG records at Anfield. But will the title race be decided by Mo Salah heading off to AFCON and Kevin De Bruyne returning from injury? 

It’s been a damaging Christmas for Arsenal’s title hopes after back-to-back defeats. Have the Gunners become boring and predictable?

Man United are beaten again by Nottingham Forest with fans left to rue the decision to exchange Antony for Anthony Elanga.

Plus Wayne Rooney is sacked, Cole Palmer is good, Ivan Toney’s future and the worst 5-a-side team in the Premier League.
