It was a good weekend for Mo Salah, Ander Herrera, Olivier Giroud and Napoli, and a bad one for Shane Long, Declan Rice, Harry Kane and Mauricio Pochettino.

We discuss the weekend of glowing tributes to Arsene Wenger, and what they have tended to leave out. What kind of manager should Arsenal go for after Arsene?

John Brewin joins us to discuss Wenger’s remarks after yesterday’s match expressing disappointment with the failure of Arsenal fans to portray an appropriate image of unity to the club’s global fanbase. Might this suggest that Wenger is somewhat… out of touch?

And we talk to Jack Pitt-Brooke about whether Spurs can be said to have bottled the Cup semi-final against Manchester United. And what are we to make of Mauricio Pochettino’s repeated references to “another coaching staff” possibly being at Spurs in the not-too-distant future?
