Listen "Potter and Rodgers finally sacked, in-form Villa roll on, Newcastle take the initiative in the top 4 race, PLUS Grealish best game for City?"
Episode Synopsis
Mike, Myles and Dave chat about TWO managers getting the chop in the Premier League this week. Graham Potter is finally shown the door at Chelsea, a 2-0 defeat to Aston Villa enough to send them into 11th in the table. What went wrong for Potter at Stamford Bridge?
At Leicester, a limp defeat to Roy Hodgson's Crystal Palace deep into injury time spelled the end for Brendan Rodgers. His time at the Foxes has been a success on the whole, but this past year has been awful. We delve into why, and what Leicester do next.
Aston Villa's form under Unai Emery has propelled them not just away from trouble, but right into contention for European football next season. Myles reflects on a brilliant turnaround under Emery, while Dave bemoans Manchester United's 2-0 defeat at Newcastle. Surely Eddie Howe's men have the top 4 momentum now?
And also, Man City spanked Liverpool 4-1 thanks to a Jack Grealish masterclass. Was this his best game in a City shirt?
