Title Race

Are Mikel Arteta’s tactics becoming too defensive? With no wins in their last three games and a worrying lack of goals from the forward line, are Arsenal in danger of throwing away their Premier League advantage? Michael Carrick has made a dream start, claiming statement wins over Manchester City and Arsenal. Can he guide Manchester United into the Champions League places — and does he deserve the permanent head coach role? Gary, Alan and Micah also break down Unai Emery’s brilliant tactics and ask the question: can Aston Villa go all the way and win the league? The Rest Is Football is powered by Fuse Energy.

Welcome back to The Fan Debate, brought to you by Sky Bet. We start with the biggest talking point as Paul Scholes is challenged on his criticism of Lisandro Martínez, sparking a heated debate about pundit responsibility and whether players are judged too harshly. The focus then shifts to the title race as Arsenal continue to fly and Manchester City look to close the gap. Arsenal fan Matt backs his side’s chances and makes the case for Declan Rice as a Ballon d’Or contender, while questions are also asked about Pep Guardiola and City’s tough January. We also look at Manchester United, where Michael Carrick is in the spotlight, and debate whether he could earn a permanent role, plus where Bruno Fernandes ranks among the club’s greats. Elsewhere, managerial pressure builds across the league with Chelsea, Spurs, Palace and West Ham all under discussion as fans give their views. Are pundits too harsh on players?

Real Madrid returned to winning ways at the weekend when they beat Levante 2-0 but the Bernabeu crowd singled out Vinicius Jr, Jude Bellingham and Fede Valverde for boos and whistles as they continued to express their displeasure at Xabi Alonso’s sacking. Gary And Alex react to the scenes in Madrid and the challenges facing new manager Alvaro Arbeloa. Barcelona’s nine-game winning streak came to an end with defeat at Real Sociedad in an incident-packed game featuring disallowed goals, overturned penalties, and a brilliant performance from La Real’s goalkeeper. This result means Barca are only one point ahead of Real Madrid at the top of La Liga, but there was some positive news for Marcus Rashford as he got himself on the scoresheet. Finally, we look at Villarreal’s fading hopes of muscling their way into the title race after defeat at an improving Real Betis and there’s a look at Atletico Madrid’s Alexander Sorloth proving some of his doubters wrong with a superb winning goal against Alaves.

Dharmesh Sheth is joined by Jack Pitt-Brooke, John Cross and Jack Rosser to break down the weekend’s biggest football talking points. We start with the Manchester Derby, as Michael Carrick delivers a dream day at Old Trafford. United claimed a 2–0 win in a game where they had three goals ruled out, a Harry Maguire header off the bar, and an Amad Diallo post-hit late on. Meanwhile, Pep’s City struggled with defensive absentees and a dry-spell for Haaland, but are they out of the title race? Staying with the title race, we turn to Arsenal’s goalless draw against Nottingham Forest. John argues it was a missed opportunity for Arteta’s side, who had the chance to move nine points clear of Manchester City. And we ask – should Arsenal have been awarded a penalty for Ola Aina’s handball in the closing stages? And finally, attention then turns to Crystal Palace, following a bombshell interview from Oliver Glasner, in which the manager claims his squad has been abandoned by the club’s hierarchy.

Arsenal charge six points clear at the top of the table, do they already have one hand on the Premier League trophy?

Gary, Micah and Al also dive into Ruben Amorim’s post-match press conference, where the United boss appeared to take a subtle dig at the club’s owners.

Dharmesh Sheth is joined by Martin Samuel, Dominic King and Julien Laurens to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action. We start with The Ashes, as Australia defeat England in the third Test in Adelaide to seal the series. Martin labels it a “crushing disappointment” for England, while Julien points out this wasn’t even Australia at full strength. Adam Collins joins the show to praise a dominant Australian performance and predicts a 5–0 whitewash. We then move to Liverpool’s dramatic 2–1 win over nine-man Spurs. Dominic questions Isak’s underwhelming spell after another injury, while Julien points to lingering defensive problems. Next, we ask where Spurs are heading, as Julien argues it’s hard to see what Thomas Frank is trying to do. Also, Manchester United’s chaos continues after a 4–4 draw with Bournemouth, prompting debate over whether Amorim has got it wrong on Kobbie Mainoo and his role in the team. Finally, we turn to the title race: is the pressure mounting on Arsenal? Top of the league but unconvincing, and with Gyökeres’ form in doubt, we ask who should lead the line when fully fit? And after a 3–0 win over West Ham, Man City look dominant in the title chase. Dom says, in a head-to-head, you’d pick Guardiola over Arteta every time. Sunday Supplement is a Sky Sports podcast.

Salah Bombshell | Ashes Update | Villa stun Arsenal Dharmesh Sheth is joined by Jonathan Liew, Dan Kilpatrick and James Olley to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action. We begin with Mo Salah’s explosive interview, in which he hints at a breakdown in his relationship with Arne Slot and suggests he feels unwanted at the club after being benched again. Next, we turn to the Ashes, where England have finally shown some fight — but the question remains: why has it taken so long? Jonathan believes it’s a huge missed opportunity and compares England’s approach to “Ange-ball.” We then turn to the WSL, where we’re joined by Megan Feringa to ask what’s gone wrong for Arsenal’s Champions League winners. Megan believes the presence of so many high-profile players has led to an overreliance on individual brilliance rather than unity and a cohesive style of play. Next, we move on to the World Cup draw. While James criticises the politicisation of the event — highlighted by Donald Trump receiving a peace prize — we focus on England’s fixtures and travel itinerary. We then look at Arsenal’s defeat at Villa Park. James highlights the state of the squad, noting they used a sixth different centre-back pairing at the end of a gruelling run of fixtures. Are they starting to look vulnerable? Finally, it’s a tale of two Manchester sides. Manchester City’s dominant win over Sunderland has cut the title race gap to just two points, with Pep’s men looking like they still have gears to spare in the new year. Meanwhile, after Manchester United dropped another two points at home to West Ham in midweek, you have to ask: are the lower European spots the best Amorim’s team can realistically hope for this season?

Welcome back to another episode of the Fan Debate, brought to you by Sky Bet. Jamie Carragher is joined by some of the biggest fan channels in the country to break down the biggest talking points in the Premier League right now. We start with the 1–1 draw between Chelsea and Arsenal. What does it mean for the title race and what did we learn about both sides? We also look at Declan Rice and where he ranks among the world’s best midfielders. That result opens the door for Manchester City, who continue to hunt Arsenal down. Can Pep’s side catch them, and will their famous second half of the season surge prove decisive again? We also check in with Aston Villa and Sunderland after their impressive starts and ask just how far both teams can go this season. Meanwhile, Newcastle and Fulham have had mixed results, can either find consistency and push up the table? Despite beating West Ham, questions continue to follow Liverpool and Arne Slot. After a heavy summer spend, why are the same problems still showing and is the investment paying off? Manchester United also get discussed after a big win at Selhurst Park. Is Ruben Amorim finally finding rhythm after a shaky start, and can United now put a run of results together?

Rog and Rory are back to break down all of this week's Premier League action, including a wild 1-1 draw between Arsenal and Chelsea at Stamford Bridge that was more boxing match than football game.

Plus, Liverpool got a much-needed victory over West Ham United...but with one of their biggest stars on the bench.

On the second Clash of the Correspondents of the week James is joined by Newcastle United fan Simon Bibby and Manchester City fan Jonny Pringle to discuss all the latest at their clubs ahead of the GW12 meeting at St James's Park. And Newcastle are probably delighted that is having only picked up 12 points so far this season and much of that owes to their dreadful away results. What's going wrong? Whilst City will feel their push for the title starts now after their statement win against Champions Liverpool. And for both clubs, great fixtures are around the corner following this one and that means Gameweek 13 Wildcarders should have particular interest.

Jimbo’s got Pol Ballús, James Horncastle, Julien Laurens and Seb Stafford-Bloor all along for the rollercoaster ride through the weekend’s action across the continent. We kick things off in France, where PSG have João Neves to thank for their two-point lead at the top of the Ligue 1 table after his 95th minute winner against Lyon. But chasers Lens and Marseille had wins of their own to keep the pressure on Luis Enrique’s side. In the Bundesliga - Bayern didn’t win a game! But neither did Leipzig or Dortmund, meaning Vincent Kompany’s men have actually extended their lead at the top of the table to six points despite the 2-2 draw at Union Berlin. In Spain, Real Madrid were lucky to come away from Rayo Vallecano with a point - which Barcelona took full advantage of in their 4-2 win at Celta Vigo, featuring a hat-trick from 37-year-old Robert Lewandowski. A special guest joins us from Vigo… nothing to do with Nando’s…. And in Serie A, are we seeing a repeat of Napoli’s last title defence?! Antonio Conte made some… interesting comments after his side were beaten 2-0 by Bologna to fall behind Inter and Roma at the top of the table. Plus - what’s going on at Ajax?! Dutch football expert Michiel Jongsma joins us to explain some of the fun and games in the Eredivisie - and whether a certain ten Hag might be making a return… Produced by Lucy Oliva. RUNNING ORDER: • PART 1: Moments of the weekend (00.45) • PART 2: Ligue 1 review - PSG’s late winner and billionaire v billionaire (07.45) • PART 3: Bundesliga review - does no one want to stop Bayern?

Welcome back to Stick to Football, brought to you by ARNE. After Manchester United’s win over Liverpool at Anfield, Gary Neville, Roy Keane, Jill Scott, Paul Scholes and Ian Wright dive into the fallout. What’s going wrong at Anfield? Do big players like Mo Salah need to be dropped? And are Liverpool letting Arsenal take control in the title race? There’s also more drama at Nottingham Forest, as Ange Postecoglou leaves after just 39 days in charge. Roy opens up on his own experience working under Evangelos Marinakis during his time as assistant to Martin O’Neill, while the team debate if Sean Dyche is the man to finally steady the ship at the City Ground. At Manchester United, Rúben Amorim has guided the side to back-to-back wins for the first time under his tenure. Can United continue to build momentum when Danny Welbeck returns to Old Trafford with Brighton this weekend, or will his former club be haunted by an old teammate? Super 6 is back ahead of another big weekend of football, and the team tackle your community questions, from Roy’s Ireland ambitions to Jürgen Klopp’s next move, and whether football’s global expansion is a good thing for the game.

Jimbo’s got James Horncastle, Seb Stafford-Bloor, Pol Ballús and Julien Laurens with him as the Euro crew gear up for MD3 in the Champions League. In La Liga, there were 15-second delays and it was the late show once again for Barcelona who had to rely on another stoppage time winner, this time against bottom of the table Girona. Real’s narrow 1-0 win at Getafe sets us up beautifully for Sunday afternoon’s Clásico… It was goals galore in Ligue 1 as Marseille put six past Le Havre, while PSG and Strasbourg played out a 3-3 thriller on Friday night. So how will Luis Enrique’s side fare away at a resurgent Bayer Leverkusen on Tuesday night? We’re running out of superlatives - and records for Harry Kane to break - after his latest goal in Bayern’s dominant 2-1 win over Borussia Dortmund. Plus, what hopes of Eintracht Frankfurt piling more misery on Liverpool when they go toe-to-toe on Wednesday evening? And over in Italy, the title race continues to take turn after turn as Napoli and Juve dropped more points while the two Milan sides took advantage, with Serie A’s top four separated by just one point. Meanwhile, the controversy over the decision to plan Milan v Como in Australia isn’t going away… All that plus (more) sumo chat, Potter’s return to Sweden - and lots of jesting about goals vs clean sheets.

Dharmesh Sheth is joined by Jonathan Liew, Martin Samuel and Dan Kilpatrick to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action. We begin with Forest’s sacking of Ange Postecoglou. Jonathan refers to his tenure as a disaster from start to finish, but does Ange have a future in the Premier League? Next, we look to Liverpool v Manchester United. Jonathan believes a direct approach, using longballs, is the best method to expose Liverpool’s defensive frailties and Dan suggests we’re seeing a transition in Slot’s side that was expected last season. We then turn to the title race and Arsenal’s away win at Craven Cottage; Jonathan is confident that Arsenal win the title this season, calling the set-piece winning goal “brutally efficient” and Martin compares this Arsenal to George Graham’s league-winning side. We also look at Erling Haaland’s incredible goalscoring record, with two goals in five minutes against Everton, and ask the question whether Manchester City are a little too reliant on the outstanding Norwegian this season? Finally, we look at talk of a “Beckham Bid” for Manchester United. Approached by UAE billionaires, David Beckham may be the face of a £5billion takeover bid. And whilst comparing both Man United and Liverpool’s models, we ask which is the bigger club?

David & James Pod in search of answering whether anyone can ever repeat Leicester City's remarkable success when they won the Premier League ten seasons ago in the 2015/16 season? There's reflection of Leicester's title success and memories from it and reasons behind their successes, including their style and some of the statistics behind the triumph. Could it ever happen again? If a Bournemouth or Crystal Palace won the title now could it be compared? Was Nottingham Forest's run last season as close as we may see to a stylistic comparison? How might winning the title be achieved by an 'outsider?' And even if it is, can it ever compare to what Leicester did?

Jamie Carragher and Paul Scholes return for another episode of The Fan Debate, brought to you by Sky Bet. This week, our fans dive into all the biggest stories across the Premier League, with strong opinions, plenty of disagreement, and a few laughs along the way. The discussion begins with Liverpool’s defensive issues under Arne Slot. Have the Reds taken a step back at the back, and could that open the door for Arsenal and Manchester City to take control of the title race? There’s also debate on whether Pep Guardiola’s side have fully recovered from their early-season wobble. Attention then turns to Chelsea, as Rory and the panel question whether Enzo Maresca’s players are letting him down, and whether the club’s disciplinary record is a sign of deeper problems. Spurs fan Flav discusses life under Thomas Frank, takeover talk, and whether optimism is finally returning to North London. Ellie gives the Nottingham Forest view as Postecoglou’s tough start continues, while Adam McKola and Paul Scholes tackle Manchester United’s struggles under Ruben Amorim, asking whether the manager still has the belief to turn things around. The debate wraps up with Everton’s resurgence under David Moyes, and what Toffees fans make of their progress and new stadium. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Adam Hurrey is joined on the Adjudication Panel by Charlie Eccleshare and David Walker. On the agenda: whether the Premier League title race can be "blown open" after seven games, some tantalising punditspeak in the stands at Old Trafford, Martin Keown mixes up his sporting terminology, Nick Woltemade’s never-before-seen penalty, experimental football chat on the Rest is History, Ange Postecoglou starts a media war he simply won't win and some gloriously pointless stats. Meanwhile, the panel fact-checks Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink's football-themed Strictly chat and decides the point at which a player becomes a "former international".

🔥 Was Manchester City Written Off Too Early in This Season’s Title Race? 🔥 Manchester City smashed Burnley 5-1 at the Etihad, and suddenly the conversation has changed. Pep Guardiola’s new-look squad – with big names like Donnarumma, Cherki, and Reijnders coming in – is starting to click. After back-to-back defeats to Spurs and Brighton, many thought City were out of the title picture. But three strong results later, including this demolition job against Burnley, the Blues look like they’re finding their groove again. In this episode of the Blue Moon Botcast, we break down: ⚽ City’s 5-1 statement win over Burnley 🔄 How Pep’s rebuild is shaping the team’s new identity 🧠 Pep’s tactical shift vs Arsenal – pragmatism over perfection 💔 Life after legends: KDB, Gundogan, and Walker moving on 🏆 And the big question… can City really challenge Liverpool and Arsenal for the Premier League title? Pep himself said after the Burnley game: “We are creating a good team spirit with the backroom staff and players. We finished with late goals. It was tough. In the second half, we found the goals and it was miles better in the last 20 minutes.” The energy’s back. The spirit’s back. But is the title race back on for City? 💙 Let us know what YOU think in the comments: Have people written City off too soon, or is it still Liverpool and Arsenal’s race to lose?
