Arsenal move five points clear at the top of the Premier League as Manchester City suffer their third consecutive defeat. With City struggling and the shadow of the 115 charges still looming over them, is there anyone capable of stopping the Gunners from lifting the trophy at the end of the season?
Could Brighton be Arsenal’s closest challengers? The Seagulls comfortably brushed Brentford aside at the Amex, recording yet another clean sheet. Can they maintain this form and genuinely mount a title challenge?
Gary, Alan and Micah also discuss the bonkers action at Old Trafford, where Manchester United produced their second remarkable comeback of the week to snatch a point against Aston Villa. United still find themselves in the relegation places, but could this be a turning point in the season for Michael Carrick?
