Peter Smith reflects on that game with players who were on the pitch...

Micah Richards and Theo Walcott joined Dave Jones on Super Sunday, and they watched Arsenal secure a late win against treble-winners Manchester City at a euphoric Emirates stadium. Substitute Gabriel Martinelli provided the pivotal moment, albeit via a crucial deflection off Nathan Ake. It sparked familiar jubilant scenes in the stands as the Gunners finally beat their rivals after losing the last twelve Premier League fixtures against the Citizens. Richards felt Arsenal were not at their best but said their performance was more intelligent than previous approaches to this fixture and highlighted the performance of William Saliba, who he described as ‘outstanding’. Theo Walcott singled out Declan Rice’s performance in midfield and believes he has taken the Gunners to another level.

Jamie Redknapp felt it was a horrendous decision, whilst Gary Neville believes something hasn’t been right with VAR in the last few weeks.

Thomas Frank gives an insight into how teams need to adapt after getting promoted from the Championship to the Premier League and also explains how he’s managed to have such a good record against the Big Six with Brentford.

Kelly Cates is joined by Karen Carney and Jamie Redknapp as they analyse Brighton’s 3-1 win against Newcastle at the Amex, which saw Evan Ferguson score his first Premier League hat-trick.

Newcastle suffered their third straight defeat and Redknapp feels something is not quite right with their midfield, suggesting that Sean Longstaff could help resolve that potential problem.

Player of the match Evan Ferguson and Billy Gilmour, who also impressed, give their reaction after the win. Both managers also give their views with Roberto De Zerbi hailing the win as one of his best as a manager, whilst Eddie Howe felt the scoreline was not a fair reflection of his players’ performance but did concede that they are having an issue with converting the chances they create.
