The Dressing Room

Joe, Carlton and Wayne discuss the ugly scenes in the Champions League tie between Benfica and Real Madrid, where Real forward Vinicius Junior received alleged racial abuse. The guys dissect Arsenal’s 4-1 victory in an electric London derby against Spurs. We go deep on the battle for the title - will City hang on to glory or will Arsenal silence the doubters accusing them of being “bottlers”. With Pep Guardiola encouraging his players to enjoy some cocktails having piled on the pressure on the Gunners, the boys offer up their finest City / cocktail puns (spoiler alert - it’s a mixed bag…). We celebrate James Milner who reached a record breaking 654 Premier League appearances last weekend. Our resident frequent flyer Carlton recounts a disastrous trip to Bochum which left him stranded in Germany with only a dry pretzel to his name. The lads also run down the pick of the weekend’s games.Send us your City cocktail puns in the comments and don’t forget to subscribe so you never miss an episode of The Dressing Room.0:00 - Intro0:52- Alleged racism returns to the Champions League10:07- Arsenal defeat Spurs in London Derby12:24 - Spurs’ relegation worries15:15 - Fitness and Conditioning18:16 - Spurs’ Mental attitude20:06 - The Title Race is back on after Man City beat Newcastle.21:12 - Haaland v Burn23:24 - Could the lads cope in the modern game?24:24 - Nico O’Reilly - where is his best position?25:43 - Buff Refs!30:14 - Bridgey remembers that goal!31:00 - Manchester City cocktail puns in full force32:09- James Milner breaks Premier League appearance record35:36 - Carlton Cole gets stranded in Germany44:06 - Joe’s ski problem46:01 - Chelsea’s Home Woes54:41 - Will West Ham stay up?59:23 - Players of the weekFor more from Novel visit https://www.novel.audio
