Marco Bizot, where were you going? It was nice of him to try and take the attention off Chris Kavanagh in Newcastle's 3-1 win against Aston Villa. Today, Marcus, Luke and Vish are here to pick through a controversial FA Cup weekend.
Elsewhere, there was a good old fashioned cupset for us to enjoy at Turf Moor as Mansfield completed a comeback win against Burnley, Leeds won on penalties against Birmingham City and West Ham (unsurprisingly) scraped past League One side Burton Albion. Plus, Marcus has a thing or two to say about Vish’s Instagram content, and Carlo Ancelotti lets loose in Rio.
