Football Weekly: Dutch masters serve up a van-load of goals

James Richardson returns to gnaw at the bones of another meaty weekend of footballing action, along with Sean Ingle, Tom Lutz and Rob Smyth.

Naturally, we start with Arsenal's wild 5-3 win over Chelsea - a game with more drama than a 24-hour act-athon at the National. The pod discuss John Terry's misfortunes, with Rob pointing out that Terry haters often forget just what a great player he has been; André Villas-Boas's high-pressing tactics; and whether Arsenal can kick on from here. There's also pod love for Spurs, who are now level on points with Chelsea with a game in hand, a look at the Manchester clubs, and indeed every Premier League match this weekend.

Elsewhere, James Horncastle looks at Inter's woes, including why Mauro Zarate isn't particularly liked, and Roma's struggles.

Meanwhile in La Liga, Levante's remarkable unbeaten run came to an end, while a hat-trick from Lionel Messi answered his critics. Sid Lowe is on hand with a full Spanish round-up.
