The Totally Football Show with James Richardson

Jimbo is joined by Seb Stafford-Bloor, Pol Ballus, James Horncastle and Tom Williams to look back on the weekend’s European action, as well as discuss those crucial Last 16 second legs in the Champions League.

Real Madrid go into their return trip to Manchester City having beaten Elche 4-1, with Arda Guler scoring from inside his own half, but Barcelona are still four points clear after a Raphinha hat-trick helps them beat Sevilla 5-2.

In Italy, Atalanta put their horror show against Bayern behind them to draw 1-1 with leaders Inter, but Milan fail to make the most of it and lose 1-0 to Lazio. It’s advantage Paris Saint-Germain in the Ligue 1 title race, despite them not even playing, as Lens lose 2-1 at Lorient.

And in Germany, Bayern drop points for only the fifth time this season after drawing 1-1 with Leverkusen.

Jimbo has Duncan Alexander, Tim Spiers and Adrian Clarke for company after what felt like a massive Matchday 30 in the Premier League.

Arsenal leave it late to beat Everton but do so with 16-year-old Max Dowman becoming the youngest scorer in Premier League history. Is that an iconic moment that will drive the Gunners towards the title? They’re now 9 points clear of Man City who draw 1-1 at West Ham.

Have Tottenham turned the tide in the fight to stay up? A first point under Igor Tudor rescued by Richarlison at Anfield in the 90th minute with Liverpool fans booing their team at the final whistle.

Man United power past Aston Villa 3-1 at Old Trafford to establish themselves as frontrunners in the Champions League race. Is Bruno Fernandes about to break the assist record?

And Chelsea are on the outside looking in, after losing 1-0 at home to Newcastle, with most of the conversation revolving around the Blues’ pre-match centre circle huddle.
