We record this episode on Deadline Day for the January 2021 transfer window with a special longer episode with many big topics including our review on the big clash against each other as Arsenal and Manchester United play out a rather entertaining goalless draw at the Emirates with huge missed chances for both sides, with the Gunners missing some key players against a full-strength United side. We also react to a big 3-1 win for Arsenal away at Southampton including how Mikel Arteta is slowly buying Danny’s respect back in his uphill climb through the league table. Also covered is United’s horror 2-1 defeat at home to bottom-of-the-league Sheffield United and Robin’s take on how inconsistency and naivety from Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and his side could cost the Devils in their title challenge. 

Other topics covered include our condemnation of racism after recent racial abuse towards footballers, our reaction to Chelsea’s sacking of club legend Frank Lampard and replacing him with Thomas Tuchel, with previews for crucial Midlands trips for Arsenal to Wolves and Aston Villa as well as United welcoming tough teams to Old Trafford themselves in Southampton and Everton. Also we look ahead to the crucial month of February with springtime and the business end of the season looming, including key Europa League knockout action to come for both sides. Look out for a surprise in the Player/Stinker of the Gameweek segment this episode! 

As the current transfer window closes for this winter, we look back on overall business and give our own clubs a rating on how they handled their business in the past month, with more deals happening on Deadline Day reported and especially so for Danny’s Arsenal with more deadwood and youngster loan outgoings to add to the incoming signings of Martin Ødegaard and Mat Ryan and we also discuss whether those loan deals could potentially become permanent. Robin also comments on the lack of transfer activity at Old Trafford, and much more covered in a prolonged action-packed episode!
