Is Arsenal’s superpower ‘being boring’?

Mikel Arteta’s defence-first strategy has received a lot of flak this season. Rather than being a problem, is it actually a unique strength no one else has? We ask Tim Stillman.

Frank Lampard is proving Coventry’s great form last season was no fluke. Adrian Clarke joins us to discuss whether Lampard has now fully restored his reputation?

We ask which of the recently departed Man Utd players had the best night in the Champions League, look at a curious appointment at Rangers, and discuss two teams unbeaten at the top of their respective leagues linked by one interesting factor.

Plus of course, we’ll tell you which games we’re going to watch tonight.
