Welcome back to 'It's All Kicking Off!' - your one-stop shop for all things football! (Apologies that this instalment is late, IAKO HQ ran into some technical difficulties this bank holiday Monday)

In the latest episode we start by discussing the borefest which was Manchester City vs Arsenal as Ian suggests that the Gunners have finally grown up, almost a year to the day since they showed their inexperience in a 4-1 Etihad drubbing. The pair analyse Roy Keane's brutal Erling Haaland analysis, describing the record-shattering striker as 'League 2' quality with regards to his all-round play and they question why Pep Guardiola gave Jack Grealish some animated on-the-field coaching after the final whistle.

Moving on to their title-rivals and Chris suggests that it's Liverpool who will be most delighted by the outcome, while Ian reckons they still have work to do with several tricky away games still on the horizon. What do you reckon? With the three giants still in the equation... who blinks first?

The pair question if Roberto De Zerbi has one eye on the exit AMEX exit door, following a series of open-ended answers to questions regarding his future... with Chris reckoning that Brighton fans may well feel aggrieved by the way he handled the situation.

We question whether there is yet life in the relegation battle with Brighton sitting 4 points from safety and with some favourable fixtures still to play.

AND we find out the best EVER April Fool's gags in football?
