Ian is joined by Flo Lloyd-Hughes and Mayowa Quadri and, after some quick theatre and panto chat, they get on to an intriguing weekend in the Premier League. Chelsea moved second, after another wild game at Spurs, so they chat about Enzo Maresca’s side settling down and whether they’re ahead of schedule (5:13). They then move on to Arsenal, who dropped points again at Craven Cottage (28:35) and wonder whether there’s a chance-creation problem for the Gunners from open play.

All Square Between Arsenal and Liverpool, Plus a Premier League Round-up
Ian is joined by Musa Okwonga and Ryan Hunn to have a very quick chat about El Clásico, before moving on to Arsenal’s 1-1 draw with Liverpool at Emirates Stadium (05:11). There’s also a round-up of the rest of the Premier League, including a wild penalty award at the London Stadium (23:42), which saw West Ham beat Manchester United in a result that cost Erik ten Hag his job. Crystal Palace got their first win of the season (29:07), Chelsea beat Newcastle (32:07), there was a wild game at Brentford (34:30), and Brighton somehow turned a four-on-one while being 2-1 up, into a 2-2 draw. This was recorded before Erik ten Hag was sacked by Manchester United, but check the emergency Stadio podcast about it here.
