    Relegation-form Man City | Jesus stuns Palace | Heated Rashford debate | Ange Big Exclusive
    Vicky Gomersall is joined by The Mirror's Darren Lewis and Sky Sports senior reporter Melissa Reddy to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.

    We start with Manchester City’s crisis after a defeat at Villa Park; a ninth loss in twelve matches but Melissa believes the most damning observation is it’s no longer a surprise.

    Next, Arsenal’s emphatic win at Crystal Palace.  Gabriel Jesus’s five goals in four days contributes in a big way to Arsenal’s open-play goals, but star boy Bukayo Saka left Selhurst Park on crutches and will be a big miss.

    Then a heated debate, as Melissa and Darren argue over whether Marcus Rashford deserves greater criticism after stating he is ready for a new challenge.

    Elsewhere, David Craig sits down with Ange Postecoglu, who talks of Spurs being entertainers, his love of the team scoring goals and how “there may be a world in which we exist, where Jamie Carragher is wrong.”

    Pep and De Bruyne on City’s struggle | Ten-men title favourites Liverpool | Are Arsenal Set Piece FC?
    Rob Jones is joined by The Mirror's Darren Lewis and Sky Sports Chief Reporter Kaveh Solhekol to reflect on the weekend’s sporting action.

    We start with Manchester City, and with only one win in ten, Kaveh talks of Pep Guardiola being at tipping point.  Juliette Ferrington sits down with the Manchester City boss, who says his players have had greater success than any team and would have won again this season had it not been for the relentless schedule of fixtures.

    Next to Liverpool, who came from behind with ten men to gain a point against Fulham.  Was Robertson’s sending off incident a clear goal-scoring opportunity?  Darren believes so, Kaveh disagrees, but both place Slot’s team clear title favourites.

    Also, with no goal in open play for five and half hours for Arsenal, Kaveh criticises Arteta for taking Odegaard off; will their failure to consistently score goals be their Achilles heel?

    Elsewhere, we discuss Gareth Southgate’s pending knighthood and issues with the Saudi World Cup.

    Finally, Natalie Gedra sits down with Kevin De Bruyne, who talks of City’s current struggle, an ageing side and being resilient to criticism.
