It was a weekend where defenders simply forgot their job. Chaz reckons it’s not “Arsenal are brilliant at corners”… it’s that nobody in the Premier League can defend set pieces, full stop — and the goal count proves it.

We get into Arsenal’s cohesion vs Chelsea’s chaos (and their latest red card), the title race reality check, and why Manchester United still aren’t “in the conversation” despite the noise.

Then we dive into the IFAB rule changes coming for 2026: five-second countdowns, tougher restarts, and what Chaz calls “daft ball” — but will refs actually enforce it, or is it just another rule in the drawer?

Plus: Spurs sliding, relegation fear, midweek fixtures, and a proper nod to the Old Firm drama.
