Arsenal take control of the title race as Forest & West Ham boost survival hopes

Jimbo welcomes Duncan Alexander, Jack Lang and Art De Roché into the studio after what felt like a pivotal night in the Premier League.

Art was at the Amex to see Arsenal earn a 1-0 win that earned the wrath of Brighton boss Fabian Hurzeler. And more importantly took the Gunners 7 points clear of Man City. Pep Guardiola’s side still have a game in hand but threw away the lead twice against Nottingham Forest.

How did Forest do it? Mark Carey was watching for us. And with West Ham also winning at Fulham, where does this leave the relegation battle?

The race for Champions League football is hotting right up with 3rd to 6th separated by 3 points. That’s after Man United’s dramatic defeat to 10-man Newcastle and Villa’s home humbling by Chelsea.

It’s FA Cup 5th round weekend. Wrexham reporter Richard Sutcliffe paints us a picture ahead of their clash with Chelsea at the Racecourse Ground.

Plus Fulham, facial hair and Flamengo sacking Filipe Luis.
