De Bruyne is back, while Spurs battle back at Man United

Jimbo welcomes Daniel Storey, Tim Spiers and Colin Millar onto the pod after a reduced but eventful weekend of football.

Tottenham come from behind twice at Old Trafford to share a point with Man United. We look at the rehabbed Richarlison and the players that Sir Jim Ratcliffe can hang his hat on. Meanwhile Tim went to watch Jadon Sancho’s triumphant return to Dortmund action.

The game of the weekend features the goals of the weekend and the return of Kevin De Bruyne in the Premier League as Man City snatch a dramatic 3-2 win at Newcastle. Can anyone stop him and City? And does Eddie Howe deserve criticism over his late substitutions? 

The picture at the bottom of the table could be influenced by events on Monday with Forest and Everton set to be charged for breaches of profit and sustainability rules, after a weekend when Reading fans protest against owner Dai Yongge and see their game with Port Vale abandoned.

Plus Kompany’s principles and why Fulham are 5% clown show.
