Manchester City's ban, the race for fifth and more – Football Weekly

Join the conversation on Facebook, Twitter and email.

We take a look back at the weekend’s football, starting off by chatting with David Conn about the two-year Champions League ban handed to Manchester City by Uefa.

Spurs grab a late win against Aston Villa in a battle of the centre-backs – calamity first, redemption later – while Arsenal win convincingly for the first time in a long time and Liverpool do what Liverpool do best.

We hear from Sid Lowe about unconvincing performances at the top in Spain, Archie Rhind-Tutt tells us about Bayern’s big win and familiar themes for Dortmund, and Nicky Bandini talks of the arrival of a third genuine title contender in Serie A.

Back on Thursday.

PS: we have some new announcements – we’re back in London on 23 March, at EartH in Hackney. more details here.

PPS: we’re back in Leeds on 9 April, more details here.

PPPS: and before those, Glasgow and Edinburgh, with Max, Barry and Lars – Elis will join us in Edinburgh, and one more TBC in Glasgow.
