Football Weekly Extra: Game of the millennium or two drunks fighting?

Organ-grinder James is joined as usual by resident monkey Barry Glendenning along with proper journalists Amy Lawrence and Paul Hayward from The Observer.

Was the eight-goal thriller between Chelsea and Liverpool as good as many would have you believe? With no Cup ties left to distract them, is the time ripe for Liverpool to win their first title since 1990? And how many uses of the word "juggernaut" in one 40-minute podcast is too many?

Meanwhile at the Emirates, with Arsenal comfortably beating Villarreal and remaining undefeated since November, the pod assess their chances in the league and cups and sing the praises of a man named Song.

Sid Lowe is on the phone with reaction from Spain and also has news of Franck Ribery's whereabouts next season.

There's a look forward to the weekend's games including Sunderland v Hull and the pod debate which of the three North-East club will be playing in the Coca-Cola league in August.

Finally, you can watch James Richardson's roundup of the European football papers' Champions League coverage here.
