Football Weekly: Is the title race still alive?

In today's pod, James is joined by an 'Old Skool' line-up of Sean Ingle, Kevin McCarra and Barry Glendenning to have the final say on the weekend's action.

There's plenty to mull over, as Liverpool's thrashing of Man Utd cuts the gap to four points, and the pod debate whether it is too little too late for the chasing teams. They are also amused by Alex Ferguson's reaction to defeat, disappointed by the Aston Villa boo-boys and excited by Andrei Arshavin's goal for Arsenal.

Sid Lowe is on the phone from Madrid with news of a feisty battle between Athletic Bilbao and Real Madrid, Bojan Krkic overcoming confidence problems to score twice for Barcelona at Almería and Atlético Madrid doing their Champions League prospects the world of good with a win over Villarreal.

Paolo Bandini is beamed up to the pod to give us an Italian round-up which includes super Pippo Inzaghi reaching 300 goals and Inter marching closer to the title thanks to goals from flat-track bully Zlatan Ibrahimovic.
