With Manchester thumping Newcastle at the Etihad and Omar Marmoush getting on the scoresheet again, does Pep have a selection headache on his hands? Especially with Haaland still searching for his first-ever goal at Liverpool. Elsewhere, after a drab semi-final at the Emirates, are Arsenal in danger of becoming boring to watch this season? And more importantly, would their fans even care if it ends with multiple trophies? Gary and Micah also dive into Liam Rosenior’s tactical approach, questioning whether he got it wrong by switching to a back five for the first time in his Chelsea tenure. Should he have been braver and gone for it from the start? The Rest Is Football is powered by Fuse Energy. To sign up and for terms and conditions, visit fuseenergy.com/football.
