Football Weekly Extra: Pressure mounts on Hughes as Man City thrashed by Spurs

James Richardson rounds-up a bumper midweek of Premier League football with the help of Barry Glendenning, Sean Ingle and Paul Doyle.

The pod are gushing in their praise for Aaron Lennon and his Tottenham side after their trouncing of City but wonder how long Mark Hughes will remain in charge at Eastlands.

The debate gets a bit tasty when Mick McCarthy's decision to field a much weakened Wolverhampton Wanderers at Old Trafford comes up. Were the fans cheated? Or was it a sensible decision?

Sid Lowe joins as usual from Madrid with reaction to his latest YouTube clip involving Fernando Torres and he also tells us why Barcelona are taking the World Club Championship so seriously.

There's news from Italy and France plus the FA's ridiculous decision to place Stadium:MK on the shortlist of World Cup venues.
