Spicy controversy at the Emirates and Aston Villa stun Man United

Author: Stak November 11, 2025 Duration: 42:33

On the official Chloe Morgan spicy scale, this weekend was... flaming hot.


Chloe and Rachel try their best to pick apart everything that went down in north London on Saturday afternoon – and what needs to be done next. Is VAR really the answer? Rachel has some alternatives, while Chloe explains why the backlash must be tempered.


Elsewhere, Man United lose for the first time in the WSL this season – what happened?! And London City Lionesses get a serious win under their belts which – of course – means Chloe thinks they're destined for the Champions League now. Join us!
