Slaven Bilic gone while Manchester City cruise on – Football Weekly

Rate, review, share on Apple Podcasts, Soundcloud, Audioboom, Mixcloud, Acast and Stitcher, and join the conversation on Facebook, Twitter and email.

Max Rushden, Barry Glendenning, Jonathan Wilson and Priya Ramesh come together to discuss all the weekend’s action, as well as Slaven Bilic’s departure from West Ham – for once a Monday managerial departure which occurred during recording of the podcast rather than after.

The panel reflect on a Super Sunday which provided us with a textbook Álvaro Morata header, another José Mourinho touchline spat and an accusatory Arsène Wenger. With Manchester City eight points clear at the top of the Premier League already is the title a foregone conclusion?

Sid Lowe gives us the latest from Spain and we roundup the best of the action in Europe as we head into the international break.

Back on Thursday!
