Episode 3696: An Arsenal And Brighton Title Race (?)

Are we ready for an Arsenal v Brighton title race? Because after this weekend it looks like that’s what we’re gonna get.

Murph and Ken talk through some of the events at the Etihad and Anfield before Rory Smith and Rich Jolly join us to reflect on the meaning of it all.

Are Arsenal in a league of their own? Why can’t supposedly ultra-attacking Liverpool make any chances? What might it take for Michael Carrick to actually lose his temper? And is there a link between the struggles of Florian Wirtz and the long-term failure of Manchester United during the Bruno Fernandes era?
