    Apr 16 2026

    The Premier League title race is very much alive and Arsenal are starting to wobble. After losing three of their last four in all competitions, a flat performance against Bournemouth has Lyes Bouzidi, Luca Dallolio and Alessandro Eremiti questioning whether Mikel Arteta’s side are beginning to panic at the worst possible time.


    In contrast, Manchester City look like they’re hitting top form when it matters most. A dominant 3-0 win at Stamford Bridge, inspired by Rayan Cherki, showed a perfect blend of flair and control from Pep Guardiola’s side.

What’s going wrong at Madrid, and are we already witnessing one of the greatest teenage talents the game has ever seen?


    We also review all the key action from last week’s Champions League fixtures, breaking down the biggest results, before our ongoing prediction battle between Lyes, Ale and Luca continues with this week’s ties.
