Ben Haines is joined by former Tottenham defender Stephen Kelly and The Telegraph’s Luke Edwards to dissect the big talking points from Saturday’s Premier League action.

Arsenal’s miserable start to the season continued with a 5-0 thrashing at Manchester City – leaving them bottom of the Premier League with three defeats and no goals.

We’ll hear what Mikel Arteta had to say about his team’s slump and Arsenal fan Joel Beya joins the boys to tell us how the supporters are feeling and why the team’s lack of game management is a big reason for their poor form.

Liverpool could only draw 1-1 at home to Chelsea, despite Thomas Tuchel’s side playing with 10 men for the whole second half after Reece James was sent off for handling the ball on the goalline. Stephen and Luke discuss whether it should have been a red card and how impressive Chelsea’s defensive resolve was after going a man down.

And Luke relives the drama he saw at St James’ Park, with two stoppage time goals in the game between Newcastle and Southampton, where it didn’t take long for the home fans to show their disapproval of Steve Bruce and the players.
