• Man United frustrate Arsenal again while Forest formula foils Man City

  Jimbo is joined in the studio by Daniel Storey, Tim Spiers and Adrian Clarke as the race for Champions League football hots up. Arsenal can only draw at Old Trafford, allowing Liverpool’s lead to extend to 15 points. With goals still proving an issue outside of Eindhoven, could their place in the top 5 be under threat? The same question has to be asked of Man City who lose to Nottingham Forest at the City Ground. How did Pep get Nuno’d again? Maybe the game of the weekend is at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as an impressive Bournemouth somehow only draw after taking a 2-0 lead. Would Andoni Iraola ever consider taking the Spurs job? Plus where it’s going wrong for Cole Palmer and why it’s going right for Crystal Palace. Produced by Charlie Jones. RUNNING ORDER:  • PART 1a: Man United 1-1 Arsenal (04.30) • PART 1b: Chelsea 1-0 Leicester (12.00)  • PART 1c: Spurs 2-2 Bournemouth (15.00)  • PART 2a: Nottingham Forest 1-0 Man City (23.00) • PART 2b: Brighton 2-1 Fulham (32.00) • PART 2c: Liverpool 3-1 Southampton (35.00) • PART 3a: Crystal Palace 1-0 Ipswich (42.00) • PART 3b: Wolves 1-1 Everton (47.00) • PART 3c: Brentford 0-1 Aston Villa (52.00) Learn more about your ad choices.

• Liverpool pick PSG’s pockets, as Arsenal hit seven ahead of Old Trafford trip

  Jimbo is in the studio with Duncan Alexander, Natalie Gedra and Charlie Eccleshare after a mind-blowing Champions League midweek. PSG dominate Liverpool and have all the shots but lose 1-0 thanks to an inspired performance from Alisson. Julien Laurens ponders whether this young team can go to Anfield and outplay the Reds again. Art De Roche was in Eindhoven to see Arsenal secure a scarcely believable 7-1 win over PSV. Where did that come from and could we see it again at Old Trafford on Sunday? Elsewhere, there are sensational goals at the Bernabeu as Real hold a narrow advantage over Atletico, while it’s a nightmare night for Xabi Alonso’s Leverkusen against Kane and Kompany’s Bayern. The Premier League weekend sees Forest host Man City in a big game for the top 4/5 race. Will Nuno be as happy as he was on Monday night? Plus Raphinha, reverse scorpions and which managers could still play for their clubs? Produced by Charlie Jones. RUNNING ORDER:  • PART 1: PSG 0-1 Liverpool with Julien Laurens (04.30) • PART 2: PSV 1-7 Arsenal with Art De Roche (19.30)  • PART 3: The rest of the Champions League midweek (31.00)  • PART 4a: Forest v Man City preview (46.00) • PART 4b: The rest of the Premier League weekend (53.00) Learn more about your ad choices.

• PSG well prepared for Liverpool but Real lose again ahead of Madrid derby

  Joining Jimbo are Julien Laurens, Michael Cox, Pol Ballus and Seb Stafford-Bloor ahead of a mouthwatering midweek in the Champions League. PSG versus Liverpool might be the tie of the round as two of the continent’s in-form teams clash. Are Luis Enrique’s side finally ready to banish the ghosts of previous knock-out defeats? Real and Atletico meet in a Champions League Madrid derby, with Real slipping to 3rd in the Liga title race after defeat at Betis. Bayern and Leverkusen also clash. Despite the 8 point lead held by the Bavarians in the Bundesliga, is Xabi Alonso favourite to get the better of Vincent Kompany? It’s a big week for PSV and Robin van Persie’s Feyenoord. Michiel Jongsma has more. Plus what Napoli’s draw with Inter said about Serie A and Paulo Fonseca’s extraordinary red card for Lyon. Produced by Charlie Jones.

• Fulham and Brighton knock Man United and Newcastle out of the FA Cup

  Jimbo has Daniel Storey, Duncan Alexander and Matt Davies-Adams for company after an FA Cup 5th round weekend that has a bit of everything. Holders Man United are knocked out on penalties at Old Trafford as their deficiencies are laid bare again. But for Fulham, could Marco Silva be about to earn some tangible reward for the phenomenal job he’s done? Earlier on Sunday, Brighton are victorious at Newcastle after extra-time. It’s a truly costly afternoon for the Magpies as they lose Anthony Gordon and perhaps more players ahead of the Carabao Cup final. Palace progress past Millwall but all the talk is dominated by the horror challenge on striker Jean-Philippe Mateta. Similarly, Bournemouth’s win over Wolves sees plenty of discussion about the 8 minute VAR delay and the extent to which Matheus Cunha has just let Wolves down. Plus Lampard’s Sky Blues, and IFAB’s new law on goalkeeper time-wasting. Produced by Charlie Jones. RUNNING ORDER:  • PART 1: Fulham beat Man Utd on penalties, with Carl Anka and Elizabeth Barnard (06.00) • PART 2a: Newcastle 1-2 Brighton (16.00)  • PART 2b: Crystal Palace 3-1 Millwall (23.00)  • PART 2c: Wins for Villa and Preston (27.00) • PART 3a: Bournemouth beat Wolves on penalties (32.00) • PART 3b: Man City 3-1 Plymouth (40.00) • PART 3c: Lampard and Birmingham on fire in the EFL (45.00) • PART 3d: IFAB’s new 8 second rule (50.00) Learn more about your ad choices.

• Liverpool’s huge lead, Man United’s controversial cuts & FA Cup 5th round weekend

  Jimbo is joined in the studio by Duncan Alexander, Benji Lanyado and Matt Davies-Adams after a Premier League midweek and ahead of FA Cup 5th round weekend. Liverpool extend their lead at the top of the table to 13 points with a routine win over Newcastle. What records are in sight for Salah and the Reds? The most impressive display of the week comes from Crystal Palace who hammer Villa 4-1, leaving our panel purring over the performance of Adam Wharton. And asking if Robin Olsen should have let children use his goal at half-time. Manchester United claim most of the headlines off the pitch this week with INEOS making big cuts to the staff and the canteen. And we ask could we be about to see a brand new name on the FA Cup trophy in May? Plus the most handsome player in the Premier League and the invention of points. Produced by Charlie Jones. RUNNING ORDER:  • PART 1a: Liverpool 2-0 Newcastle (03.45) • PART 1b: Forest 0-0 Arsenal (11.45)  • PART 2: Wins for Palace, City and Chelsea (18.00)  • PART 3a: The rest of the midweek action (33.00) • PART 3b: Man United’s transformation plan (39.00) • PART 4: FA Cup 5th round preview (43.00) Learn more about your ad choices.
