Arsenal to Wembley | Is Pep becoming a distraction for City?

Tom White and Jamie O’Hara break down Arsenal’s Carabao Cup semi-final win. Was Paul Merson too harsh in claiming Chelsea “never had a go”? Joined by Arsenal fan Nick and Chelsea fan John, we dig into Liam Rosenior’s cautious approach to the game.

Next, we turn our attention to Manchester City ahead of their Carabao Cup semi-final, unpack Pep Guardiola’s post-match comments about the referee following the weekend’s clash with Spurs, and welcome City fan Alex to ask the question: is Pep’s behaviour distracting from his side’s poor form?

And finally, we address Arne Slot’s comments on the importance of style of play – is playing attractive football more important than winning trophies?
