We are back after a week away with all the reaction from this weekend’s Premier League action as Arsenal claimed the bragging rights of North London, whilst Manchester City remained HOT on their heels. 

For the second time this season, Mikel Arteta’s side beat their bitter rivals Tottenham 4-1 with Eberechi Eze and Viktor Gyokeres both bagging two, whilst at the Etihad, it was Nico O’Reilly who scored a brace as City beat Newcastle 2-1. 

Ben is joined by Tom, Watto and Ben Tozer to discuss all of the key talking points including the NLD, England World Cup squad selections, how Liam Rosenior is doing at Chelsea and what is going on at Liverpool…

And of course there is a return of the Quiz!
