Football Weekly: A two-horse race for the Premier League?

A smattering of snow can't stop the Football Weekly pod squad from their regular Monday musings.

Joining James Richardson in the warmth of the studio are John Ashdown and Paul Doyle to analyse (sort of) whether it's now just about Man United and Liverpool in the race for the Premiership, and to finally name names when it comes to the relegation scrap.

Meanwhile, Sid Lowe reports from Spain on Lionel Messi's latest bit of magnificence, and wonders why Madrid are shopping for players from Porstmouth, West Ham, and Wigan.

There are other questions for you to the think about too. Is Shay Given's goalkeeping prowess the biggest myth in football? Is it time to rethink the criteria for relegation and promotion? And is Everton midfielder Marouane Fellaini's spectacular afro actually a tactical masterstroke?
