Jermaine Jenas and Jermaine Pennant break down Arsenal’s continued momentum in the title race after a gritty win against Brighton, debating whether the league is now theirs to lose. 

Tottenham’s struggles also dominate the conversation. With Igor Tudor losing his first two games in charge, the hosts question whether Spurs are in genuine danger of relegation and whether the new manager has already lost the dressing room.

Elsewhere, Wolves’ impressive run of results becomes a major talking point after victories against top sides, while Liverpool’s inconsistent performances raise questions about tactics, squad evolution and whether the club made the right decision holding onto Mohammed Salah.

On the Fantasy Premier League side, the lads review Gameweek 28 and the early impact of Gameweek 29. Arsenal defenders continue to deliver huge points, Bruno Fernandes remains a consistent midfield option, and differential picks like João Pedro and Semenyo continue to reward managers.

Alongside the football analysis, the episode also features stories from the hosts’ playing careers, including the best away cities to play in and memorable nights out before big games.
