Are Arsenal now Champions League favourites? And can Villa stop rampant Newcastle?

It’s Jimbo, Duncan Alexander, Charlie Eccleshare and Liam Tharme in the studio as your Champions League final four are set in stone.

Arsenal snuff out any hopes of a Real Madrid remontada and indeed beat Los Blancos again at the Bernabeu. How much credit does Mikel Arteta deserve given their absentees?

Aston Villa almost complete an incredible comeback but it’s PSG who await the Gunners in the semi-final. Inter set up a 2010 semi-final rematch with Barcelona. The Opta supercomputer is struggling to pick a favourite to go all the way.

Newcastle look like they’ll be in next season’s Champions League after another five-star showing against Crystal Palace. Chris Waugh tells us they now have second place in their sights.

Plus Pep’s first and last trips to Goodison, botched substitutions and why are Brighton so weird?
