Summary

Jimbo welcomes Tim Spiers, Colin Millar and Adrian Clarke into the pod after an eyebrow-raising weekend in the Premier League. Liverpool make it past Wolves to stay 7 points clear but it’s a very edgy finish at Anfield. Are nerves setting in with the finishing line in sight and with trips to Villa and Man City to come this week? City themselves recover from defeat to Real Madrid to thrash Newcastle 4-0. Pol Ballus tries to give Pep and his players cause for optimism ahead of the trip to the Bernabeu. Arsenal stay in touch with Liverpool after makeshift Mikel Merino comes good up front at Leicester. But Chelsea are embarrassed 3-0 at Brighton. How much will they miss Nicolas Jackson? Plus the fabulous Fulham, Man United lose again and the bleak 3 months that awaits West Ham. Produced by Charlie Jones.
