AVB's poor tactical decisions, Manchester United's win over Arsenal and Jose Mourinho's stubbornness are all discussed on the Football Podcast

AVB's poor decisions, Man Utd's win and Mourinho's stubbornness feature on the Football Podcast.

Sky Sports News Radio presenter Ben Ransom hosts this week's Football Podcast and is joined in the studio by TEAMtalk.com's Rob McCarthy and Football365 editor Sarah Winterburn as they look back on the big talking points from this weekend's games in the Premier League. UNITED BACK IN THE TITLE RACE! Following their much-needed win over Arsenal, Rob and Sarah discuss whether Manchester United are back in the running for the title. Rob, however, thinks the Gunners missed an opportunity to make a statement at Old Trafford and failed to produce anything like their best form as they went down to defeat. INVERTED WINGERS - WHY! Rob and Sarah both agree that playing wide men on their wrong wings is becoming a baffling trend and is, in particular, causing big problems for Tottenham. Rob also believes that AVB needs to change his tactics and move away from his obsession with playing keep ball at a slow tempo and actually try to up the ante earlier in games. JUST ADMIT IT JOSE! Rob and Sarah also blast Jose Mourinho for his failure to admit that Chelsea had a huge slice of luck with their penalty decision as they drew with West Brom on Saturday. Sarah also explains why Mourinho is no longer 'the Special One' who enjoyed so much success with the Blues last time around. BEST OF THE REST! Manchester City's away woes, Sunderland's hopes of staying up, Joe Hart and the upcoming England internationals are also debated in an action-packed Pod.
