Football Weekly Extra: Steve Bruce sacked as Palace humble United

AC Jimbo has James Dart, Jonathan Wilson and Jacob Steinberg in the pod for this week's edition of Football Weekly Extra.

First up on a busy agenda is the midweek Carling Cup action: Manchester United's home humbling by Crystal Palace, Liverpool beating Chelsea … again, Manchester City overcoming Arsenal and Steve Kean being, well, Steve Kean with Blackburn.

Next, Jonathan leads the discussion on the sacking of Steve Bruce, as the pod wonder who will be next at the Stadium of Light.

We speak to Tom Williams about the latest goings-on in Ligue 1, including PSG slumping against Marseille, Joe Cole at Lille and the growing likelihood of David Beckham rocking up in the capital.

There's also a Championship run-down, Juve-Napoli, thoughts on the best opposition goal at Old Trafford in the past 20 years and plenty more.

As ever, leave you comments on the blog below, or head on over to our Facebook group. And if you just can't wait till we're back on Monday, check out Jimbo's European newspaper review
