Max Rushden is joined by Gregg Bakowski, Lars Sivertsen and Mark Langdon to review the weekend’s action on and off the football pitch.

Starting with the fan protests at the London Stadium, we ponder how West Ham have found themselves in this situation. Next, the north-west clash at Old Trafford where José Mourinho’s Manchester United outwitted and outfought Jürgen Klopp’s Liverpool, even without Paul Pogba.

We look through the rest of the Premier League games, including a goal of the season contender for Jamie Vardy, Harry Kane’s injury causing a headache for Tottenham and Gareth Southgate and Swansea’s heroic stand against Huddersfield.

The Old Firm derby delivered its most exhilarating chapter in years even as Rangers failed in probably their final attempt to engineer a title race, and there is yet more misery for Sunderland – even without Barry on – as Mark saw them hobble to a 1-0 defeat at QPR.

Sid Lowe joins us on the phone from Spain, Paolo Bandini gives us the latest from Serie A, and we round up the rest of the major football action from around Europe.

Back on Thursday!
