Matt Davies-Adams welcomes Carl Anka, Tim Spiers and Jordan Campbell into the studio after a big weekend for determining the line-up of next season’s Premier League.

Tottenham’s Champions League hopes are almost over after a 4th defeat in a row against Liverpool at Anfield. How disappointed should Postecoglou be about the lack of response from his players?

David Moyes’s tenure at West Ham appears to be ending on a sour note as the Hammers lose 5-0 at Chelsea. Is it all finally clicking for the Blues under Pochettino?

Arsenal and Man City win again with neither looking likely to slip up as the title race goes down to the wire.

It’s an historic weekend for Ipswich who are promoted to the Premier League after 22 years away. Nancy Froston joins us to discuss the incredible job Kieran McKenna has done.

Plus Sean Dyche and music, and who should replace Mark Clattenburg on Gladiators.

Produced by Charlie Jones.
